#rickrack

(audio source)

I had this corkboard since middle school, and it originally had a bunch of sun fading in obvious patterns from where I originally had things pinned. I hung it and put up some of my jewelry, but it looked kind of sad, so I decided to cover it with fabric, and put rickrack in between some of the sections. I think I like how it turned out. I'd been saving that top fabric a while, it reminds me of the type of vinyl you'd see on the cushions of some rusty kitchen chairs from the 70s, likely with cracks and stains. Or an oilcloth tablecloth.

“Collected by Edith Boehmer (1905-1990, teacher in Seminole schools and one of the founders of the Seminole Craft Guild) and donated to the Indian Arts and Crafts Board in 1966; part of the IACB Headquarters collection (Department of the Interior, Washington, DC) until 2000 when it was transferred to NMAI.“
