]]>Caleb decided to go with a green lightsaber, which in Star Wars universe is usually used by powerful Jedi figures like Qui-Gon Jinn and represents peace and harmony.
In a video posted on Boylei Hobby Time YouTube channel, this talented craftsman guided the viewers through the process of creating the snow globe. This included using resin instead of water so the glowing effect of the lightsaber wouldn’t be compromised.
“This week, I made a Star Wars snow globe. A glowing LED lightsaber probably wouldn’t survive being submerged in water, but luckily it does just fine in a ball of epoxy resin,” Caleb shared in the video’s caption.
Caleb is known for creating dioramas and models dedicated to fantasy, science fiction, and Wild West, among others. He is particularly a big fan of Star Wars, and his YouTube channel is full of fun and creative projects dedicated to this famous franchise. Check out more of them below.

]]>In a video shared on Instagram, which has already been viewed 28 million times, Saniatan takes a slab of brown LEGO and starts shaping it like it’s made of clay. He “cuts” it with a wire, places it on the potter’s wheel, and even sprinkles it with some “water,” which is actually just see-through bricks.
From there, Saniatan creates the shape of the flower pot, gives it an oven treatment, and even paints it. Of course, all of that is done with LEGO.
Instagram users went on to share their amazement with the video and Saniatan’s creativity in the comments section.
“Jaw dropping! You just keep getting better and better!,” one person commented.
“That’s actually an incredibly accurate demonstration of the pottery process!!!!,” another added.
This isn’t the first time Saniatan impresses social media with his stop motion animations focused on LEGO. A while back he also made a video in which he “painted” Hokusai’s “The Great Wave off Kanagawa” using plastic bricks.

]]>The post Jessica Thompson-Lee’s Ceramic Mugs Have the Most Unusual Handles appeared first on PlayJunkie.
]]>Thompson-Lee creates colorful ceramic mugs with unusual handles. While the body of these mugs usually follows the traditional shape, its handles are on the abstract side. With their unusual and unpredictable shapes, they look like they are growing out of the mug on a whim.
While some shapes might seem impractical, they also open up an opportunity to experiment with different ways to hold a mug.
According to Thompson-Lee, the shapes of the handles found on her mugs are actually based on organic forms. They are inspired by artist’s observations of “microorganisms, fungi, coral, rock formations, the human body, and insects. “
Still, Thompson-Lee never knows how each piece will turn out before she starts making it. She adopted a playful and experimental approach, which she refers to as “drawing with clay,” which allows her creativity and moments of inspiration to take charge and ensure unique pieces.
“This unpredictability is both an important and enjoyable part of the process; each design is unique, “Thompson-Lee shared in her artist statement.

]]>The internet has been strangely captivated by this unexpectedly amusing piece of content created by YouTube’s Brick Experiment Channel. In the clip, a car made from LEGO bricks is facing a challenge to cross various bridges.

“Never thought I’d be this emotionally invested in a little lego car crossing a gap, “one YouTube user commented.
“I love the format of figuring out a solution to a problem then figuring out how to worsen the problem, then repeat until all problem variants you’ve presented are solved. Satisfying, “another added.
