"Chani" is a reskinned Hazeson, which is PERF:

The "Hazeson, Shaper of Sand" card, which has desertwalk, allows me to play deserts from my graveyard, and creates 2 1/1 Sand Warrior tokens when a desert enters play under my control.

A very ROUND raccoon keeps visiting and I'm delighted every time (no babies this time,maybe they're old enough to split off):

I think I liked this better in concept than execution. Might scrub it clean and start over:

A glossy dark teal tile with hand-drawn lineart of an underwater scene, including green seaweed, a yellow eel, and a pink jellyfish.

Tile #3!

An equilateral-diamond black tile with a scene of a rocket blasting off in front of a green planet in front of large fluffy clouds, all rendered in bright colorful lineart.

Playing with a new medium/style is reinvigorating!

A horizontal rectangle tile in blue glass, on which is drawn an orange squid amidst aqua oceanic currents and bubbles.

Still having fun with paint markers: tile edition!

#MtG FRESH MEAT FOR MY "FAT BEAR WEEK" DECK:

A Magic: the Gathering card for Beorn the Fierce from the upcoming Hobbit set. He's a beefy 6/6 with trample, gives other bears +2/+2, and turns other creatures you control into bears with trample.

My wife and I have a replica of this plaque in our hallway! Found it at an antique store ages ago and now it's the centerpiece of a small cluster of space art:

A replica of the moon landing plaque mounted on a wooden base, hanging on a light blue wall.

So this happened...

The same bag as in the previous post, except with a colorful line drawing of clouds, planets, and stars across the front of it.

The side of the same bag, showing lineart of a trio of planets surrounded by stars.

The OTHER side of the same bag, showing a planetary eclipse surrounded by an asteroid field and stars.

I recently got this bag from a Facebook ad and it's a pretty color but kinda plain...

Today's backyard wildlife: a much more shy groundhog who skedaddled as soon as he realized I was watching him:

RACCOON FAMILY IN OUR BACKYARD! A momma and her FOUR round babies! This is not a drill!!

All the hardware I reclaimed from $8 worth of old purses. 8 pairs of handles, 3 shoulder straps, and a handful of D-rings, closures, and miscellaneous accent details:

The aforementioned purse hardware/fixtures sorted out on the cushion of a navy couch, most in neutral colors.

Same thing w/the books I buy: I've been getting them at library sales for $2-5 a pop, & if anybody knows what's actually valuable to the general public, it's librarians. I'm not dismembering Rare & Valuable Literature, here. And some of the pages also get use (dictionary pendants, sculptures, etc).

Five hardcover books in various colors with interesting printing on the front (cool typography, colors, graphics like fish or an astrology wheel).

The pile o bags I got at the thrift outlet to harvest for parts for book purses. 1/2 of me feels like I'm about to skin a bunch of animals for their meat/pelts & 1)2 of me is like "some of these are still in good shape & somebody might want them..." IF SOMEBODY WANTED THEM THEY WOULDN'T BE $1.5/LB!

She really is the sweetest gremlin:

I went to the library sale today and found a dictionary so big that it's gonna make a SERIOUS book purse - AND it has illustrations for dictionary pendants! Seriously, this thing is like ten pounds all on its own. (8.5x11x5"!!)

A very large dictionary with a blue and black pattern on the cover and gold lettering.

I feel DEEPLY patriotic when I see photos of marches and progressive resistance. Like these:

Edward Crawford, a Black Ferguson protestor, wearing an American flag tshirt while lobbing a tear has canister back at police.

Ieshia Evans, a Black woman in a flowing gray dress, standing peacefully but defiantly as fully-armored police rush her on a public street.

A white woman dressed as Lady Liberty being arrested by black-clad cops as she laughs.

My backyard may be scruffy but WE HAVE FIREFLIES!!

Our cat is VERY pear shaped and majestic:

But a dear friend recently lost one of a pair of earrings, and asked if I could make a replacement match, so I said yes, because I'm a glutton for interesting challenges lol. And after sifting through EVERYTHING I think I got pretty close! Huzzah! (left is her photo, right is my replacement)

A small glass-beaded earring in dark "oil slick" iridescent colors with matching iridized hardware.

A small glass-beaded earring that's VERY close to the previous one, aside from minor details like spacer bead shades.

Those 2 go into a "miscellaneous" box, sorted by color, which I pick from as needed. Sometimes a pendant/focal point needs just one extra accent bead, so I'll grab from that.
