Some years ago, I invited friends and family members to draw a picture, paint, craft just any contribution to a big long wall in my house which I put a 3000 piece puzzle of the ocean on. I wanted to have a place, a Happy Place to go and see the love from family members and experience it over and over. I got a bunch of contributions. It was just great.
When we moved, I didn't have a wall big enough so I practically filled the whole 3rd bedroom with the puzzle and items. Some of the items didn't make it through the move and got torn or just plain ruined. That made me very sad. But for the ones that made it through, the walls were decorated.
Now fast forward to present day and when my sisters visited they brought a gift, or a contribution from my great niece, Lucy, and I love it. I wasn't sure how or where I would put them, but today I got it figured out and they are up and around the puzzle. She crocheted them all and they are just wonderful. My favorite is the jellyfish of course.
