It’s always nice to know that you have inspired someone to action through your own actions. Well. . . almost always. Just before coming to my home for Christmas dinner, my friend Shari discovered her lint trap was full of pink lint. Remembering my recent post on needlefelting my own dryer lint (be sure to read the 12-13 posting too), she did what a good friend would do — she tied a bow around it and popped it into a gift bag.
It did get a good laugh!
I think that re-gifting this would be a nice idea, don’t you? Yes, I’ll do something with it. Recycling is what we call it today. And since this is such a “personal” gift, it may become a birthday postcard. Or perhaps, since it’s a joint-venture lint collection, maybe an anniversary card. Who knows? I’ll look to the new year for new direction and inspiration.
Meanwhile, don’t save your lint for me. Be inspired to use it yourself.

Wow! You have been busy!!
I received a similar “gift” from a friend a few years back. I don’t felt and couldn’t bring myself to do a thing with it. I suppose I should track down someone with a felting machine, as I could supply them forever and a day with dryer lint.
Happy New Year! Here’s to new challenges and lots of finished projects! Cheers!!
