In the past few days, I've got my creative mojo going again. There's a new pumpkin spice soap, some embroidery pieces, and some metal lanterns I had a blast making with
Tuesday yesterday. The soap uses organic pumpkin puree from our garden, along with some essential oils that smell good enough to eat. Think pumpkin pie spices, citrus and vanilla all rolled into one. A sprinkle of cinnamon, and layers of orange and white. I can't wait until they've cured, so I can try one.
My plan has been to use all recycled metal for my metal art. I got to thinking about all those olive oil tins I've been saving, and a lantern idea a friend shared, and this is the result. I'm really enjoying creating with the plasma cutter. I got another welding lesson from Tuesday too.
I'm not steady enough to take good nightime photos, but hopefully this gives you some idea. Tonight, I'll borrow a tripod from the shop and try again. I've almost used all the tins I've saved, so if you know of a source of olive oil tins, or other large cans, I'd love to know!
