Notes attached to the back of the piece.

Idea for the piece was the result of seeing the vent over the door to the laundry room.

Harmony

Hung the piece over the door inside the guest bathroom.

Harmony

After it is hung for a few days, I will attach a piece of foam tape to the bottom. It will secure the piece and prevent it from moving about every time the door is opened and closed.
