Summer Projects
Here's a few more projects I want to complete this summer...

Mini Terrariums


I found the instructions from Mighty Girl

To make these, you will need:

-two small bags of cactus mix ( used for a base)
- one bag of decorative gravel to pour over the top.
-The two-inch plants are ideal

-Use a few plants that don't need dirt ( Succulents!!!)


Note: Misting the soil directly about once a month is all that is needed for most cacti and succulents of the desert sort. Unlike most plants they don’t need to be watered when planted but prefer to adjust for a few days before a first water.
Definitely keep those lids off! Even with the humidity-loving tilandsia ’cause the lack of air circulation will drive them straight to Death By Rot.

New ways to hang art















I've already aquired the string and clothespins, however, I don't have much art to put up yet!

Anyone want to donate/trade some art?

I was also thinking about getting foam and making and gluing these blackbirds to the clothespins.

Wooden Chandelier



This looks a little tedious, however, I've seen the wooden beads in craft stores and they're super inexpensive. The main thing I'd have to worry about is finding wire strong, yet flexible enough to bend into the shapes I need.I was also thinking that I could even paint the beads a light olive green color.

Also, purchasing one of those hanging bulb and wires from ikea ( used normally for their hanging lanterns) would be a great way to light up the chandelier.

anyone care to join in and make any of these things, too??

Stuff I'm into
Over the past couple months, interior design has highly interested me and has become one the loves of my life ( next to photography). I'm constantly browsing the internet in my free time and gathering the things that interest me. Most of my friends have seen some of the things I have posted,however, if you haven't.... I've posted stuff below.







Cityscape hangers

ocean reef fishbowl... made of bronze and glass

















Table top greenhouse








bathtub hammock

















This was in the F.U.E.L gallery...a trio of optical fiber nets, each holding a glass fish bowl and hung from a cloud, like oversized raindrops. Light is emitted from the knots of the optical net, like stars in a clear sky. Fish swim in luminous raindrops falling from the clouds.
































a light pour' comprised one hundered thirty optical fibres hung from a single illuminated cloud enclosed in a barge floating on the Yarra River. A cascade of light is created by crimping the fibres. A rain storm of light floats indoors on the river.


















Puff Out Lights are leather and blown glass rechargeable lamps that "embody the interaction of candlelight". The lamps clap-on symbolizing the striking of a match and produce a glow that flickers gently - they also blow out.
















wall gardens








Natural swimming pools

















Tree tents.... can hold a whole family!

New blog
Being that I've been inspired by not only photography lately, I've decided to start a blog that's solely for my inspirations and artwork. Hopefully some will read, comment and feel inspired by the stuff I post here.
