I found this little metal tree stand at the thrift store. When I bought it, the entire thing was the gun metal color of the base. I think I did a good #revamp by giving it green leaves and a textured trunk (which you cant see because the lighting was bad, but if i remember I'll share a pic later) . . . . #thrifting #thriftstorefind #upcycle #Thrifted #jewelryhanger #jewelrystand (at Newport News, Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFR2m49hYem/?igshid=1cwuploj3b4l3
Someone said my 🐚🌸floral coral🌸🐚 looked like a piece of raw chicken with some flowers stuck on it...i think theyre not entirely wrong 😅💀 ~ Either way, it makes a cute addition to any space, and its super lightweight! I made it using #recycled #reused and #naturally collected materials...trying to do my part to reuse what I can, but also to bring people art 💖 ~~ $18.00 + free US shipping ~~ This lil wall hanging makes the perfect decor addition to any tiny space! Great for #tinyhomes, #dormrooms and other #smallspaces. The backing allows for the floral coral to be displayed at almost any angle, and can be used with almost any hanging hardware. ~~ Follow the link to my Etsy shop to see more photos & to learn more about this one-of-a-kind piece! ~~ #reducereuserecycle #reducewaste #siftedandthrifted #recycledart #tinyhouse #artist #smallbusiness #localbusiness #beachfinds #coastal #beachdecor #miniatureart #beachvibes #savetheplanet #fossils #shells #etsyseller #etsy #thriftstorefind #artforsale #affordableart #thrifty #crafty #covidcrafts (at Newport News, Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEE_EYwBxma/?igshid=15emu20yudm1v
Hey dudes! 🤟🏼 I haven’t posted or made anything in a while because I was moving! Now that I’m finally getting settled I had time to check out a beach in the area and these are most of my finds. Only one small shark tooth for the day but at least I know I can find them here. Most of what is pictured are fossilized barnacles and pieces of fossilized sediment with impressions or citrine crystals that have grown on them! I will be making things with some of this stuff so if you’re interested let me know! 🐌🐚 - - - - -#fossils #virginia #virginiafossils #history #nature #barnacles #fossilmatrix #beach #beaches #collector (at Williamsburg, Virginia)
Haven’t flint knapped in a good few months but I started again tonight and made this little point fairly quick. This is the first one I’ve made without breaking and it’s the thinnest one I’ve made! I’m proud of myself because this ain’t easy! 💪🏻👏🏻 If anyone is interested I’ll be making this into a necklace or something soon! #flintknapping #stonetools #projectilepoints #arrowhead #handmade #etsy #etsyshop #primitive #prehistoric #creative #skill (at St. Mary's County, Maryland)
