2025: Day 66....."Weird Plants & Pots"

 I like weird plants and weird pots.

So if I can match weird with weird

in the house plant world, I like that.

Stacey found this frog at JoAnn's 

going-out-of-business sale and 

knew I'd like it. 

I put a bunch of 

RATTAIL CASSULA plants in it.

(Also known as Watch Chain,

Lizards Tail, Zipper Plant.)

Pretty weird, huh.

Looks like he's enjoying a big lunch.

Susie bought me this guy because

she knew my style also.

I've taken pieces of his 'hair' and prop them

in this box because I like making

more weirdness.

And I have this little baby weirdo growing to

take to a plant swap in spring because I 

know other plant people like weird too. 

It's always fun to start small and get to 

know a plant so I always take a 

Box of Babies to share.

2025: Day 65....."Jumbo Rollers & Jumbo Love"

One of my all time favorite photos

of my great little model Haley.

She was and still is.... always willing to indulge me. 

She is a natural beauty.... even now as

a big grownup girl.

Jumbo love.

 

2025: Day 64....."Graduation Gift Card Box for Class of 2025"

Grad Gift Card Box

Circa 2025

Here's something interesting.

I made a blog post in 2009  (here's a link if 

you want to see it) and this is how

many folks have looked at it:

All I can say is that 

I'm so grateful for ALL

 that have ordered one! 

But happy that not

everyone did because I don't think

our fingers would have survived

all the foamcore cutting. 

We'd be done in.

Hopefully you enjoyed looking

at our ideas and had fun 

creating one on your own.

But for those that don't want to

do the work themselves....then....

call or email us.

Our fingers are still working!

2025: Day 63....."Are you ready boots? Start walkin' "

'I'll walk right in. Set right down.

Daddy, let your mind roll on."

 Yeah....Like Nancy Sinatra said....

"And that's just what they'll do."

 

Mammogram Part 1,005.

Or so it seems.

Check out those babies.

Version 2025.

TCB.

Because that stuff's important.

Man....I wish I had that ring though.

2025: Day 62....."It's not an optical illusion"

Yes. It really is this oddly crooked.

It's a building in Corktown, MI.

It's also shaped like a triangle.

Here's the back of the building.

We've decided to always check the back.

It can be more interesting than the front.

What a surprise.

Apparently there was once a building

next door that they tore down.

But still. 

Why this shape?

I guess the answer is that this is 

all the space they had so they went with that.

Oddly creative, interesting and weird.

Go on a treasure hunt and see it for yourself.

Hashtag Detroit. Hashtag Corktown.

 

2025: Day 61....."polymer clay ooak doll collage named Tik Tok"

 I made this with person with 

Cernit polymer clay.

It's in a vintage 7" cigar box

with hanging wires on the back.

He evolved out of the clay.

 

Just popped out like he was

inside the clay and wanted out.

The other items showed up too.

Just in time.

2025: Day 60.... "A Pile of Guitars"

 

Look at this!

You have to look deep into this picture

to see what the heck is going on.

Can you tell what's even there?

It's a pile of GUITAR CENTERPIECES.

Red ones and silvery fire ones on 

mylar poufed decorative bases with

variegated glittered stars.

I love these and think they make

smashing centerpieces for a 

Rock Star Party

 or

    any music themed party.

I'm proud to ship these out because

I'm sure they are going to make

someone feel very happy & special 

and 

THAT'S

THE 

GOAL.
