Miniature perfume bottle’s that I have had for years. These are the prettiest and unusual little designs. The golden one is a Salvador Dalí inspired design. If you look close (that’s the point), you can see what looks like a silhouette of a woman’s body. The cap is also a reminder of Mr. Dalí.
This silver drinks set is not all it may appear to be at first glance. It is in fact a 1:12 miniature drinks set, made by artisan Clare Bell at the Clare Bell Brass Works in Maine, in the United States. Each goblet is only one centimetre in height and the decanter at the far end is two- and three-quarter centimetres with the stopper inserted.
The theme for “Looking Close… on Friday!” is “all in a row”.
When I heard the theme, I really wanted to do something using simple silver pieces reflecting off a mirrored surface. This miniature 1:12 artisan drinks set arrived at my home recently after several months in transit. I had almost given up hope that I would ever see it when it arrived. It seemed to be the perfect choice for the theme. I hope you agree.
Clare-Bell Brass Works is an American manufacturer of fine dollhouse miniatures. Each miniature is precision machined from solid brass or silver metal, carefully hand assembled, and in some cases gold plated for lasting beauty. They are located in Lovell, Maine.

Renoir said once that nothing was so difficult,
and at the same time so exciting, to paint,
as white on white.

My grandmother had a sewing machine she used for alterations. My mother also had a sewing machine. I learned at a young age to use my mom’s sewing machine to made a few pillows out of scrap fabric.
I loved being creative from a young age and once I got to middle school would frequently use my elective credits for Home Economic classes. I continued to take those classes through high school. I got good enough sewing to make myself a few shirts and a 3-piece suit. When I graduated high school, the Home Ec. Department awarded me with a small Home Ec. Scholarship (the first boy in the history of my school to earn one).
My grandmothers sewing supplies were passed to my mom. And when my mom stopped sewing, she gave me her machine and sewing box. This collection of buttons likely has a few buttons over 60 years old. My grandmother would have been tickled to see this photo.
I never through out a button. You never know when one will come in handy! (I have the same philosophy for spare nuts, bolts and screws)

This medal is one of the many my daughter‑in‑law Stien Vanhoutte has earned during her impressive career in inline speed skating. In our family we call her “Snelle Dji”, an affectionate nickname that, in our dialect, means both fast and beautiful. It describes her perfectly: lightning‑quick on the track, graceful in her movements, and a determined athlete through and through. Every medal tells a chapter of her sporting journey, but this close‑up captures the pride and strength that define her career.

As a fan of natural remedies I have a whole battery of Globuli that can support mental and physical wellbeing as a first aid and they come in these bottles.

Bamboo by the roadside. In bamboo, as in other grasses, the internodal regions of the stem are usually hollow and the vascular bundles in the cross-section are scattered throughout the stem instead of in a cylindrical arrangement. The dicotyledonous woody xylem is also absent. The absence of secondary growth wood causes the stems of monocots, including the palms and large bamboos, to be columnar rather than tapering.[4]
Bamboos include some of the fastest-growing plants in the world,[5] due to a unique rhizome-dependent system. Certain species of bamboo can grow 910 mm (36 in) within a 24-hour period, at a rate of almost 40 mm (1+1⁄2 in) an hour (a growth around 1 mm every 90 seconds, or 1 inch {2.54 centimeters} every 40 minutes).[6] Giant bamboos are the largest members of the grass family. This rapid growth and tolerance for marginal land, make bamboo a good candidate for afforestation, carbon sequestration and climate change mitigation.
Bamboos are of notable economic and cultural significance in South Asia, Southeast Asia and East Asia, being used for building materials, as a food source, and as a versatile raw product. Bamboo, like wood, is a natural composite material with a high strength-to-weight ratio useful for structures.[7] Bamboo's strength-to-weight ratio is similar to timber, and its strength is generally similar to a strong softwood or hardwood timber.[8][9]
