Water cap in the lawn.

This daring little winter athlete measures approximately 5" x 4". Each piece is handmade from recycled, repurposed objects.

Each little person comes with a copy of their own story, which helps bring their character to life.

This one's story is:

The breeze chills my face as I race to the bottom. Snow flakes dance across my brow, stuck for a moment before they are whisked away, adding themselves to the fluffy white layer of the slope. The trees rush by in a blur. I bend my knees, soar through the air, and then am earthbound once more. It is the release in me, the rush, the quiet of the solitude, and the noise of the wind that brings me back again and again. To be on my board, the sky above, the hill below, there’s nothing better, nothing more free, than to be snowboarding.

It is $55 and comes with a handcrafted copy of the story.

While wondering around town, finishing up an assignment for my studio concepts class, I found this object in an alley behind someones house. It had no doors, hinges, or any kind of markings.

This stone was gifted to me by a friend...I really have no idea what it is...maybe Larimar? The setting was one that I attempted, grew frustrated with, threw it in the scrap pile, and dug it out again a few weeks later. I think it turned out pretty well in the end, even if it's a bit rough.

There's no on/off switch -- plug the adapter in and it's on. It uses less power than a typical night light.
