Clothes Pins

clothes pins you ask!?...ok...they are one of those quirky but handy objects...I have always found clothes pins to be so much more than the things that hang on the clothes line...

so for starters...they really are the only thing you can hang your laundry in the sunny sunshine and have that smell of a summer breeze....

but step up the function and they can be pretty...

with fabric added

wrapped with embroidery floss

we can never forget the most darling clothes pin dolls!

then when does it become fine art???
when someone takes in from function to form...

and when does it become fashion??
when someone dares to create movement...

and when does it become a functioning art?

so next time you are out in the sunshine and you walk by a clothes line...

stop...just for a moment...

 and ask what will you become?
