Hanging globe lamp depicting the Pacific Ring of Fire, a string of active volcanoes encircling the Pacific Ocean. The globe is probably from the 70s (USSR is still present). The fourth picture is the interior of the globe.

This nightlight is made from a vintage block sorting toy “The House That Jack Built.” It has a low wattage LED bulb and inline switch.

Some mini birdhouses decorated with a lichen that we call “old man’s beard.”

Sami wants peace.
Which hair is better? The fountain or the tangled curls?

Some insulator lamps I’ll be bringing to the next craft fair in Willimantic, CT this May. They give off a sort of underwater light effect.

Globe (probably from the 70s), glass dome clock, antique mantel clock, insect shaped brass findings, quartz crystals, and desert roses.
Very happy with my flea market haul today!

Vintage milk pasteurizer has a new purpose as a birdhouse. It can no longer keep you from getting listeria, but maybe you’ll get to enjoy some bird parenting.

Flowers made from hemlock pine cones being examined by a western conifer seed bug. The glass dome is salvaged from a broken decorative wind-up clock.
I added the bug because it seemed too “Beauty and the Beast” with just the flowers.

More than half of the infant formulas in @ConsumerReports new tests contained concerning levels of heavy metals like arsenic and lead. Tell the @US_FDA it’s time to deliver on its promise to ensure all infant formula is safe action.consumerreports.org/nb_20260303_...
I can make up my own fantasies.
What a wonderful explanation!
Love the design! Curious about the intention of making it hard to handle?
Spring is coming! Offer a home for a nesting pair of birds in this repurposed old pitcher.

Nearly finished. There are still some details I want to add on both levels, but the materials either aren’t available this time of year, or need some time before they can be used.

Did some decorating in the upper level - a dirt path, vines, branches, leaf litter, and lichen. Some is real and some is artificial. Clothespin for scale.

Gift card envelopes and small gift boxes decoupaged with antique magazine, newspaper, and sheet music pages. They started out as cardboard tubes (tp, paper towels, gift wrap).
Not as hard as I thought it would be to glue tiny leaves onto a twig.

I refashioned this moon phase clock kit to fit in an antique camelback mantel clock case. In three days it’s supposed to be a full moon, so I’ll be able to check if I set it accurately.
