I have an empty space on the bookshelf in my office and because it’s a dark bookshelf in a dark corner I wanted to add a little bit of whimsy that would light up the area – literally.
I had all these plastic gems I picked up from the dollar store a few years back, and a conveniently-sized plastic jar into which they could go.
When I poured them in I shoved in a set of battery-powered LEDs as well, for – well, for the purposes of lighting things up.
Then I re-created a version of my paper peonies that I made a few years ago.
And I stuck them in on top.
So now I have glowing peonies. In my office. And I’m okay with that.
