Me: "I didn't, my eye never touched your eye!"

DIY: Bottle Cap Wall Art

This "do it yourself" tutorial is an improvement of an old post I made last year. A unique way to decorate your walls and reuse materials is to create shapes using bottle cap lids. You will need bottle caps, paint, and sticky tack! You can do simple, flowing shapes to unify shapes and colours within your room: Or you can create pixel-based shapes and images like this one: To create a pixel based image, choose an image based on the amount of pixels in it. Here is an image I found of Ash Ketchum from the old gameboy colour Pokemon game series which I used to play: You can open up the image in a program such as Photoshop, zoom in and see a pixel grid. This way you'll be able to see just how many pixels are in the image, and how many bottle caps you'll need to create it. Here is a close-up: My family buys cases of bottled water (which I think is a waste of money) so all these bottle caps added up really fast. I hope you enjoyed this little art project.

Sand Story

A little photo series I wrote up months ago.

Beyond perfection.

I think people put too much emphasis on perfection. Once the whole world buys into whitening their teeth to a perfect shade of white, people will want something better than just white. In the future, people will have little light bulbs in their teeth. Our smiles will literally shine, and the value of the natural will diminish.

Sink.

I can't really draw, but I do it anyway.

Little Sand Sculptures

I finally finished these! They took a lot of time and patience. These are little sculptures made from grains of sand. There is a couple which holds hands, a giraffe, a tree, and a heart. I dropped in a nickel for some size comparison. Enjoy!

Oreo tree.

I never mentioned this before because I wasn't sure if it was going to work, but I found a way to plant an Oreo tree. Look how much it grew! Hoping to double my cookie profits by next month.

Freeze!

I partially froze time.
