The handle does not help.

It’s designed to look like a pile of glossy red onions.
Part of that sentence works.

Time to take the Christmas Decorations down. Tradition says to wait for the Feast of the Epiphany, but the weather's freezing bitter right now, the snow light but sullenly determined not to shift. It's set to get worse. Meanwhile, sweet things; my husband has put up some of my paintings. I am at once pleased and embarrassed, because I know they aren't all that. Part of me dreads what his parents will say. One at least* would look reasonable in a frame, the others... of course I love them, I made them; but my adult self knows they don't deserve this focus. I am torn between shy happiness and a dread of hearing truthful comments. Still, I got lots of fab art supplies this Christmas, so I must at least try to become better at this.


*painting, not in-law.

Your husband is a gem. But you already know that. 😀

I, too, struggle with my art being "out there". So, I urge you not to. LOL! Seriously! It doesn't have to be a permanent installation if you don't want it to or if you say what you needed to say and after a while want to say something else.
