Leslie's String Art

This is done by dipping string in paint or ink, placing the string on an envelope, placing another envelope face down over the first envelope, figuring out a way to apply the right amount of pressure to the stack to allow the string to be pulled out, leaving a pretty design.

If you want to Google and see more examples, be sure to put the word *pull* in the search. String art is something else. Pulled string art is this.

  1. Thanks for "showcasing" all my envelopes! (it's funny, as I don't remember sending some of these to you! -- i'm losing it!) Anyway, wouldn't a string-art envelope be fun? (although not sure how it would be done, but here is an image, just for fun! -- http://misskatecuttables.blogspot.com/2019/01/love-string-art.html

  2. This is awesome. I have never heard of pull string art - I'll have to keep it in mind as something to try in the future.
