Garden Moss, As A Form Of Plant, Eugene, Oregon
|
|
|
|
A layer of moss was beginning to cover the front driveway under the wheel of a parked car. This moss too will be power washed away in the spring. Moss and dried leaves mixed with low weeds near the corner of the side fence and side gate. Border stones divided the path from the garden in the back yard. Those edging stones were beginning to merge in with the garden due to a thin layer of moss. A closer view of the moss growing atop the stacked stones that created the Monster raised garden bed. That moss looked rustic because of a tiny fallen leaf and two fallen twigs that decorated its surface.

Cups, As A Form Of Home Decor, Eugene, Oregon
|
|
|
|
A cup with a floral design sat on the shelf that divided the kitchen from the dining room. A yellow cup with a smiley-face design sat on a metal shelf and held a cube that could be folded in many ways to expose different designs one at a time. A worn cup with a floral design sat on one of the shelves in the kitchen. The words on its front read, "Mom's Cup, A gift from your favorite child." A bird theme cup sat at the back of a desk. It had been seriously cracked in the past, so could no longer hold liquid. It was now used to hold a blue-tooth adapter being charged.

Stakes, As Found Art, Eugene, Oregon
|
|
|
|
We converted to plastic stakes, because the wooden ones delaminated. This particular stake indicated that we had planted crocus flowers in front of ground cover. A wooden stake leaned against a recycling bin. This stake had been used before and now stood waiting to be used again. When a plant was purchased at a home improvement center, or at a garden center, it was usually provided with a stake that described the plant. This particular stake labeled purchased ground cover. Another problem with wooden label stakes was that the lettering on them faded over time and became illegible.

Texture, As Found Art, Eugene, Oregon
|
|
|
|
The glass leaded into the front door was made of several textures of glass. Not only was the design rough, but so was the texture of the glass. A woven foot stool cover wrapped a bright red foot stool. The holes in the cover created the texture. An American Rag brand hoodie was woven from yarn. This was a close up view of one of its sleeves. A thin, worn cotton dish towel was laid atop a small folding table. It had been allowed to dry out. Its surface was so thin and worn that it almost had no visible texture at all.
