Beauty Kaleidoscope

We had a power outage last night. It was truly wonderful. No TV blasting commercials in my face all night, but candle light dinner instead. I wish I could convince the city to do that once a month or so for the whole city (except hospitals and so on, of course)... we would save sooo much energy, families would pay more attention to each other again...
Anyway, I didn't have a chance to upload may latest Found Art piece, but here it is...

I took a jar lid, glued some silver envelope lining from a fancy envelope in the back, then pieces from a broken car mirror that I found on top. I added a few "pretty" things like fake gems and a little filigree ornament and a line from a book that says: "Such a clever and attractive creature", and a piece of lace underneath. oh, some washers, too. Then I filled it up with resin. Man, that stuff is highly toxic, it smells aweful. But is looks really awesome when done...like glass.

When you look at it you can see parts of your face enlarged and only the piece of mirror in the middle shows your whole face, although somewhat distorted, hence the title kaleidoscope. I added a tag, on the back it says that it is supposed to be hung in a spot where it is seen every day to remind the finder how beautiful he or she is.

I left it in the beauty department of New Frontiers in San Luis Obispo. There were people there the whole time. I was a little scared to be discovered but managed to get out of there without being seen. It was very adventurous.
