I started making jewelry using natural Hawaiian shells, and finally opened my little Etsy shop 🌺

I’ve always loved jewelry that incorporates unusual materials and organic shapes, especially shells, pearls, and natural stones.
Recently, I started making my own necklaces using Hawaiian shells, some of which I drill myself, along with pearls and gemstones.
After weeks of experimenting with designs, I finally opened my first Etsy shop, Terra Lani!
I’d love to hear what you think of my pieces.

Glashütte Trash Clock

Hey fellow horologists out there! I built a functionning clockwork out of trash, in Glashütte / Saxony. I call it the "Glashütte Trash Clock". It runs for about half an hour, it uses a paperclip-escapement, it has a gong and it also features a random complication.

There's a write-up on my website, explaining the project's background and how I made the clock, step by step.

I made these cat guys!

I made these cats (and the horrible orange pumpkin) after seeing a pic online.

I made a glowing skull diorama which pulls weather data and glows a color based on the temperature outside

The skull is powered by an ESP32 and an array of addressable RGB LED lights. It pulls weather data from OpenWeatherAPI and glows the color of the temperature outside. Cooler temperatures are cooler colors, warmer temperatures are warmer colors. When it's precipitating outside (rain/snow), the skull will slowly pulse in and out of the color pertaining to the correct temperature. And when there's a severe weather alert, it flashes red. (The flashing purple means that it's in setup mode, it becomes a wi-fi hotspot you can connect to to set the wireless network, password, and zip code for the weather data.)

I decorated the diorama with moss and tiny headstones.

This was a gift for a friend, I'm happy with how it came out. I hope you like it!

I made a customized wooden astrolabe for a couple. An astrolabe is a medieval astronomical tool.

An astrolabe is a medieval astronomical tool, I have designed my own wooden version. There are some brass elements as well, like the suspension ring, the retaining pin and the rivet for the suspension ring.

Axe stuck in a log

Carved this out of a stick I found in Wyoming on a walk a couple months back. Stole the idea from a post I saw on the whittling subreddit. Really delighted with this one :D
