Broken Pieces

This is a post from my FB page:

I made it to the staff meeting earlier this week with the ornaments I made for coworkers. Unfortunately. I forgot to give one of the gnomes to a fellow PCC--until today. 

And the cactus I made for another coworker didn't survive the fall to the tile floor.  I'm redoing one for her.  She won't receive it until after Christmas.  

I asked if it was salvagable, and the Staff at That Art Place said since the breaks were clean E6000 will work.  If it doesn't work I'll make a mosaic trivit or stepping stone, or something else with the broken pieces. 

If all else fails, I will display the broken original as a reminder that the broken and imperfect are still beautuful in the eyes of the Maker, and remain useful--even if the purpose they serve changes over time and circumstance.
