I like writing these <a href="http://carolinaeclectic.blogspot.com/search?q=in+my+head">"In My Head"</a> articles, because it allows my brain to let go of these recurring thoughts. Sorry to be using all of you for my own therapy;)<br />My eye is caught by the organic and strange shapes of ocean creatures. They're so mysterious and beautiful! Actually, when I was a little kid; I used to read everything I could about ocean life. Now, I wonder how these shapes can be reinterpreted into furnishings and jewelry, too!<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-hd4mgKlcbQA/TaXCZewot4I/AAAAAAAAGYI/a1zUDeJw6tI/s1600/Picture+9.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-hd4mgKlcbQA/TaXCZewot4I/AAAAAAAAGYI/a1zUDeJw6tI/s1600/Picture+9.png" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"> <a href="http://jellythefish.tumblr.com/">Photos via Jelly the Fish</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-dzhv_5dfNCQ/TaXCe8zg-4I/AAAAAAAAGYM/4HsW-dwqHA4/s1600/Picture+2.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-dzhv_5dfNCQ/TaXCe8zg-4I/AAAAAAAAGYM/4HsW-dwqHA4/s1600/Picture+2.png" /></a></div><div style="text-align: justify;">First, I found these colorful anemone bowls made by <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/elementclaystudio?ref=seller_info">Element Clay Studio</a>.

I never understood the point, so I soon forgot all about them. Recently, that has changed. I can't stop thinking about the art of origami and its simple beauty.
