The Heart String

I needed some new art.

I saw a DIY on this project.

I couldn't find any scrap wood so I bought an old drawer and busted it apart.

I painted it with acrylic  brown paint (fuck using stains they suck)

I used black nails used for building miniature railroads

and red twine I bought off etsy.
