You wove the disparate words seamlessly into your story. I too like to give new life to cast off or found items. Keep recycling and creating treasures! Best wishes in the contest- Joan

Oh, how I can relate to your story! Sometimes it is challenging for me to throw things out as well, especially when I see future use with the object. However, I was told that if you have not used the item within a year, you have no use for it.

Great job with use of the words to tell this delightful story. I found it engaging and relatable.

Good luck in the contest.
