Bookend (in progress)

I decided to make a pair of bookends. This is the first one. If you can tell what it is meant to represent you should probably be very worried, it means you think a bit like me.... (it's about half done).

Candleholder




No particular plan behind this one. I like to burn scented tea lights and I made this holder from various old, broken toy parts that I had in the craft box--covered with plenty of white enamel paint. It works well as the dolls head is a good insulator for the heat from the tea light candle, and the horse base is very stable.

Scissor Harpy


My camera has died, and so I am afraid the pictures will be a bit, well, crap, until payday when I can afford to get another one. My cell phone camera leaves a lot to be desired.

The Dream Cutter


This isn't quite finished, I am waiting on a contribution from the Canada geese it was made in honor of. The little buggers' honking cuts through my early morning dreams several times a week. I need to collect two more good feathers to finish it off.

This is intended as a sort of "anti-dreamcatcher". It is made of a pieces of scrap metal, cuticle scissors, goose feathers, paint, florist wire, twine and jet glue.
