Photo blocks for sale.

I've started putting together a collection of my photo blocks for etsy. They are either printed on Kodak photographic paper, or with archival inks on professional matte finish paper, and then finished with a sealant. The finishes vary. I've done some with a varnish and some with a wax sculptural finish, much like encaustic. I prefer these over everything else, because they look old and have a lot of character. I have also attached sawtooth hangers on the back for hanging. Each block has been stained as well. I love the wood, it's so pretty and it really looks nice as a set on the wall. I need to do some different images...
I'll let you know when my page is up!

ecosystems



I've really wanted one of these for awhile, but they seem ridiculously expensive.. or is it just me? They start around $60 for a 4" globe. I am trying to find out how I can make my own, but it seems difficult since you need an airtight container that will not leak or smell badly. Since they last years, I suppose I could just invest in one that would guarantee composure (if kept away from Coco). Although, It does not guarantee that the lil' sea shrimp will live.

* this one was found at Amazon, but Green feet and Ecosphere Associates also has them.

I made this last night at midnight before I went to sleep. I can't decide if I like the beads spread out, or clustered. I'm also thinking about adding another string of them on top. I will show you if I make changes.

baby clothes

you imagine that one day your lil' honey will have the cutest clothes, the ones you kinda whimper at in the window. but I'm also hoping that I will be able to sew them all myself, like this mom Laura showed me. (what's her page?)

We'll here are a few lovely little outfits that I would maybe someday buy.





* Found at flora & henri.
