21. cracked vase, pieces glued back together
This small vase is from Japan and it was given to us as a set with another one for our wedding. I really love it and had it on a shelf behind our fireplace. This shelf is right beside a door leading to the great outdoors, which our cat is very fond of. One day, the cat was on the shelf and I was squeezing out the door, trying NOT to let the cat out. But we have one determined little kitty, and he prevailed and the Japanese vase went crashing on the tiles surrounding our fireplace. I was very sad to see this beautiful piece of pottery smashed to pieces, and determined that I would glue it back together. It sat for months with my pile of stuff to do on weekends or whenever I have abnormal free time to do random projects. Finally, I pieced it back together. It's still missing a piece, but it caught my eye last night as I was making cake pops for my students and I think it is beautiful.
Well put.
