My mom made all these cool sand centerpieces for our wedding. They looked so good, we kept like all of em for the past 4 years, scattered hither and tharn about the house. They have, alas, deteriorated. The still looked good in our minds, but they were starting to look pretty shitty, and we were aggressively cleaning in preparation for listing the house.

Nothing is wasted, there was a potential 20 minutes of entertainment here. thank you Cecile, x2.
