LOVE the sound, as well as your found objects. Of course you found a heart-shaped stone!

You've inspired me to build a totally found didlebow. That wood by the way has a strong look of oak, and by the looks of it it's been in and out of that fen for a long time. I love it!

Driftwood and a heart shaped stone - that's pure poetry Be! Can't wait to see your next creation.
