Remembering the Telephone

Hello! This project takes me back to the days of the good olde landline and being confined to the reach of a cord or ability of a cordless phone to remain static free. All the hours of talking about nothing and everything, yet, every sentence was as crutuial as the last. Oh, and the dread of the busy signal... as you knew it was going to mean pressing redial until your fingers were wore down to bone to get that important update from the previous 30 minutes you were just talking. With the invention of call waiting and three way calling, you could hear the sounds of heads popping off for miles, as this meant never missing another life altering conversation again. After all, this was forever going to be the only techonological breakthrough that would matter, ever.
This next creation I made for Going Round in Circles! Challenge At Frilly and Funkie may seem a bit simple and quick, but there was nothing quick about this. The phone cord was by far the most stubborn piece i have made in quite a while... no matter what was required, it did the opposite. Far too long later, I eventually got my way! There is so much that cannot be captured in photo, so I hope having a list of products helps convey the absence of touch.
