I piece of leather and a string of beads. What is it supposed to be? What does it represent.What is it supposed to be? That I don't know. Maybe a keychain? An unfinished masterpiece perhaps? A failed attempt at leatherworking?
What does it represent? That I have more knowledge on. I wish I could say this is from when I was at scout camp. But I can't. Its not mine. My friend gave this to me to add to my collection, among other things you'll see later. I gave up at leatherworking class at camp. I ditched it to explore. I even convinced him to ditch it. We were in the woods with minimal adult supervision, what self-respecting boy wouldn't want to explore? This is about as far as either of us got in that class. Mine lost somewhere in the woods of a time long gone. Such a simple thing, and simpler to make. A strap of leather, a line of cord, and a handful of beads. I wonder what the finished project would have looked like?
Makes me think about life too. I wonder what the finished project will look like at the end? Will it be what was imagined? Or an unfinished project put to the side?
