This little Found Object Mandala was entirely inspired by the pink glass piece in the center.  I don't know what it once was.  Possibly, it was part of a lamp or wall sconce.  Perhaps it once was the back plate for a fancy knob.  I found it at the Pickens County flea market on the same day that I bought the set of jade handled cocktail forks.

Almost everything else came to my stash as a donation!  Thank you to all those who keep my supply so nicely varied!  It makes the design process so much fun!
