My Little Art Project




These fallen dried fruits can be easily found in the parks during my trip. The shape of the fruit looks like a cute lantern made by mother nature. I couldn't help bringing a bunch of them back to the hotel. I washed them first, and then microwaved for 2 min. Finally spray-painted two of them for experiment - felt like a cooking experience :)

The result was not bad. I'll get more colors when I go back to Columbus and make them into all kinds of fun stuff!

good suggestion. i'll soap them for a longer life. i was also thinking about jewelries - i wanna make them for earrings, but they are a bit too big. as for necklace and bracelet, they are too thorny. well, need to think it over :)
