These mini flowers remind me of those ribbons quickly tied by an experienced hand: so delicate, casually elegant (can’t think of the right word here), and dainty.

Thank you! You’re right. I didn’t see it that way.

They also look a little like tiny fairies with wings flitting around!

It is like the pictures you see and it says “what do you see?” You saw ribbons, I saw fairies – I saw ribbons too after you pointed them out to us.

So true! That’s a great point. It’s like one of those illusion pictures. The mind sees what it wants to see. Isn’t that true about life as well?!

So beautiful and mesmerizing! Brings back memories of when I used to wear bows in my hair.

Nature is full of beautiful finds! Bows give off that nostalgic air. I still love bows and used to make bow hair pins for my daughter. One of my crafty friends taught me. However, I kept burning my hands from the hot glue and took up way too much time. I buy them now instead. Looks better and lasts longer. lol
If you feel like it, wear a bow this summer and go down memory lane.

Most certainly! That’s wonderful! I’m sorry that it was too time-consuming, though. Haha! Maybe, I would!
