Mother of Pearl Ships

Check out these awesome pearl ships by Ann Carrington. I wonder if she’s related to the most elegant Texan rose that ever was, Krystle. Any who, here’s her blah, blah, blah about how she got the idea to raid a drag queen’s closet to make a ship:

“I was inspired to make the galleons after watching a documentary about a factory in China which manufacturers every kind of conceivable pearl adornment in colossal quantities. I decided to make two Chinese sailing junks cruising on a tangled never ending sea of wedding tiaras, chokers and earrings!”

Pretty cool, huh? I’d hang this is my walk-in-closet.
