too pretty to toss

as you know, i am as fond of the winter garden as i am of the summer garden. and like my puggle, jack, i am especially fond of seeing what turns up after the snow melts in april. these over-wintered leaves (mostly lily i believe) were just too beautiful to toss on the compost pile. i brought them inside, and spent the next couple of hours twisting and braiding them into cordage. i will share the results in the coming days.
