As allergic persons we could not have dog or cat as a pet, but in eyes of biologist all animals are interresting. Even frogs, lizards and insets. These animals live in terrariums where they have as good environment as humans can build. Temperature and humidity must be correct for the species and even uv-radiation mimiking sun is provided. I did build couple of terrariums and one paludarium. Here is pictures of how I did them. These pictures might be useful for those who are planning building terraiums.
Firs this terrarium inhabited Phelsuma madagascariensis but now Phelsuma standingi.

Background is made of finfoam, cement and epiweb.

I have made new collection of unique ethnic inspired jewelry. Most of the pieces are shown in art crafts gallery. These jewelry pieces can be purhased from Gallery Karaija in Inkoo south Finland.
Karaija has many interresting exhibitions for a visitor. Tom Björklund and Johannes Nevala have their bird and animal paintings exhibition in Karaija now. And there is huge selection of finnish art and crafts available.
These penannular broochs can be used like Vikings or Tuareqs did. Dress part were attached together in shoulders with these. It is possible to attach chain to the loops or use single brooch in wool scarf.
This oak leaf is made of art clay fine silver and acorns. It can be used as a pendant or brooch.
