My inspiration for this project was to collect odds and ends laying around my house and make something decorative from parts of my families harvesting culture. I loved making items that many people would see as unpleasant and putting them into a useful and elegant centerpiece. I used deer antlers, a Japanese buoy, mason jar lids, candles, and epoxy to hold it all together.
