A special detail to end the week

It's often the smallest, sometimes overlooked, often not crucial detail that makes something special - be it a table setting, an accessory, the colour of a door. I'm always considering and too often staring at small details that take my fancy and make something interesting for me.

I love this image. It's just paint brushes in pots. But one pot, with its delicately-painted garland, hints of pink and yellow and the rough gluing of the cracked piece, makes this image. 

These details turn simple paint brushes into a still life worthy, I thought, of saving and using for inspiration for how I display things in my home.
