electrifying

If I had all the money in the world, and happened to be developing a second season helen furber collection heel..(which sadly I am not..quite yet anyway) I have just found exactly what I would do. This.is.amazing.


You can "trap lightening" in plastic..aka a "Lichtenberg figure" and which are actually sold on the website "capturedlightening.com". IMAGINE THE POSSIBILITIES!! imagine the heels - ooft.

    I just love it Helen! Would it be strong enough to be a heel though?

    I guess that depends on the plastic they use, which it doesn't really say on their website but probably not, sigh!

    how interesting! At first I thought it was a sort of cracking due to stress of the hammer force upon that one point.
    (which could be interesting too-- heels that look like they're about to shatter--but aren't!)
