Reimagining flea market and yard sale finds.
It’s not about what it is - it’s about what it can become.
With a new add-on of making things with bits of foraged nature.

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.

Some occupants for the underground burrow. In an odd coincidence, we found another stink bug in the house today. Either it’s been here since last fall, or it made its way in yesterday during the significant snowstorm.

Underground burrow work in progress.
I swapped out the tiny hassocks for log stools with a fuzzy moss cushion on top. I’m still thinking about what other accessories to add. Suggestions welcome.

I wasn’t happy with the look of the table and decided to switch it out for a more natural look. I also like how the stump fills in the space more. Now I have to find something to replace the little hassocks. Maybe some logs or stones.

I’m in the early stages of an elaborate project. There will be 2 dioramas in a vintage clock case, above and below ground scenes. This will be the table for some creatures having tea in an underground burrow. It’s made from beads and bits of wood.

An antique amber glass bottle nestled in a craggy piece of driftwood with seashell embellishments. The worn finish of the bottle evokes beach glass.

Birdhouse decorations to hang in a fairy garden or anywhere that needs a touch of magic. One has a little bird inside. I added some colorful oak leaves to fancy them up.

Birchbark tube that can be used as a (battery operated) votive holder or just as a container. It would work well for a pinch of potpourri or little jar of essential oil.

Birchbark air plant holder with two openings. Birchbark is very durable, and I can often find limbs or trunks that are intact with the inner wood rotted away, while the bark remains in good condition. Embellishments are made from acorn caps and moss.

Farmer Robbie KS4500 stalled while doing some work in the soybean field and nobody was able to bring him back online. It’s been six years and there doesn’t seem to be anyone to replace him either.

In 2025, Spotify was more like steaming garbage than streaming giant.
They betrayed musicians with AI slop and ran ads to promote ICE. Will you join me in my new years resolution to boycott Spotify in 2026? There are so many better options out there.
