Doing a little research, she always loved fancy brick-a-brac, but couldn't afford them. She has to settle for beat up stuff from flea markets with chips and flaws. But she could get the bees to stabilize the pieces and cover the flaws, then she would carve away the excess, shaping the finished piece. Quote:
never afford before. Got to hand it to her, she created a niche art form, and since she's the only one doing it, they are rare (read expensive and lucrative).

They've probably already been laser scanned so 3D printed copies can be mass marketed when the fad for originals dies out.

We already know what will happen if bees become extinct! Last I read up there were a couple of Chinese provinces whose bees were entirely gone. Wild plant life was dying off in huge amounts, and all their major food crops had to be hand-pollinated. I remember pictures of workers in sterile scrubs (masks included) up ladders in trees, using tiny pipettes to pollinate every. Single. Flower. Great for the rural economy, not great for the inedible plants.
