Macrame Disco Ball Keychain Charm

For the Fire Goddess — who has never fully accepted that the seventies ended, and is not about to start now.

Handwoven macrame meeting a mirrored disco ball, which should not work and completely does. The knotwork is soft and earthy; the ball catches every scrap of light in a parking garage and throws it back. Hung on a set of keys it turns an unglamorous object into something you are pleased to pull out of your bag. Each one is knotted individually, so the drape and the fringe fall a little differently every time.

Clip it to keys, a backpack zipper, a rearview mirror, or the handle of a weekender bag. It is the kind of small, silly, well-made thing that makes an excellent stocking gift.
