Cette fois-ci je me suis inscrite et je m’y suis tenue.
D’abord intriguée par ce thème, la pieuvre, je me suis prise au jeu.
En cherchant , j’ai trouvé toutes sortes de documents fascinants sur elle.
Quant à traduire cela en création, ce n’était pas encore au rendez-vous.

You were brave to go beyond the octopus charms you found in your stash. I wasn't that brave. Anyway, I LOVE the idea of translating octopus into a tassel. It's such a cool idea. And your amulet bag is wonderful too.
