A KNOTTY DAY

I tried something new/old yesterday--a bit of macrame!  I need some more jute cord to make the other leaves to hang on this branch I found at least a decade ago.
 
A ton of snips and many knots took place 
and then I sprayed the leaf with starch and gave it a good press. Once dry, I could cut the leaf to shape. 
 It worked out well but I need more cord to make the other leaves! To be continued!
