I already posted some pictures of these in Dodads, but I thought I'd show a picture or two here, as well.

These are constructed solely of cheap Highland Invisible Tape, and colored with permanent markers. They are hollow and self-supporting. I first make all of the polygonal sides and color them, then connect them from the inside, wrap the outside, and recolor them.

I have to take some better pictures of my crochet and beadwork, but here's one that I just really, really like and am reposting despite it's appearance in the doodads thread ...

LJ, thanks for the glimpse at your "stoner period" artwork.

Bruce! that so...macgyver. very cool. you are the king of clever reuse.

Dont any of you woodworkers want to pick up work in Minnesota? I desire furniture, the clever organizational types you display and with dovetails. My current entertainment unit is a stacked pine plank.

Griff, when you were designing did you have any engineering consultations at all? Or did you just go by the books? Were there builders around that you learned from? Also, from what precedents did you borrow? What structures were you looking at when thinking up yours? (you should post a new pick of that lovely hearth.)

And Wolf, the beadwork is beautiful- you make your own statement, like the lone ranger.

This is a more conventional piece ... It's a prayer feather. They are used in Native American ceremonials for a variety of purposes, but most often for directing the smoke from a smudge bowl.

Detail of the beadwork:
