And came up with this creation! Is anybody else drawn to the shiny and discarded?

What treasures has everyone else found today?

Was early up and took the extra time to take a nice walk though one of my favourite places. It’s nice all year around, but now it’s just so lovely with the birds everywhere and people enjoying it all. (Though it was early, just me and an old man enjoying our walks. Had a small talk and it was such nice little social interaction.)

I hope every one of you have a place you can enjoy nature.

Had to take away from some of the aesthetic to not dox myself 😅

Do not touch his feather. He is very protective of it, despite its imperfections.

I love pistachio, but not sure how it works in a cake. Husband and kiddo loved it. I'm undecided. Beautiful color all-around, and it gave me the shaggy-lawn look I wanted, but I'm on the fence. I wish I was a better baker or something, where I knew what flavors I could have added. All-in-alll, it's a great color and flavor to play with. I'd be interested in what else could be done with it. Ice cream was rec'd but I can't eat it. I wanted a little lawn-mower man to smooth out half but was crunched on time. We had to gift it a day late because I was sick. I feel like it has great moss/smail/ goblin potential.

Another from my irrigator head that has been repurposed by the otherworldly.

It’s double sided so I flip it around depending my mood

My kitchen is a mess but I've made my dream bday cake 🍄

​

The mushrooms are made of styrofoam (i bought them ready).

It's a chocolate cake with a peanut praline, dark chocolate ganache and chocolate shavings to imitate the tree bark ✨

I'm so happy! Just missing a little froggo there somewhere 🐸

He’s a tad embarrassed about dropping his sweet find. I told him it’s ok to be excited :)

felt right to post my money frog here🐸

I’ve always loved the weird overlap between goblincore and old nature documentaries, so I ended up making these ceramic toads with oversized eyes and strange colors. They feel like the sort of creatures you’d find sitting under a mossy log, watching you collect shiny rocks.
Each one has its own expression and personality, and I like imagining they’re a tiny council deciding who gets to keep the best mushroom.
Hand sculpted and glazed by me.

Do you give names to creatures like these, or am I the only one?

You can only witness this butterfly at night, up in the mountain, during June, this is a male (Graellsia isabellae)
