The Currier Art Museum

One of the things I saw in the Currier Art Museum were these glass paper weights that were so beautiful they shouldn’t even have been used as paper weights. My favorite one was one that has New Hampshire’s state amphibian, the Red Spotted Newt in it. They made the glass grass look so real that it seemed as if you could almost touch it. They had glass dew clinging to the glass grass. They looked like little crystals hanging on like suction cups onto the grass. There were little flowers around the newt, little yellow ones. The petals of the tiny flowers were iridescent blue. They were shaped like little stretched out hearts. The inside of the tiny little flowers were a dark shade of orange. The flowers did not really have stems they just poked out of the ground. They were beautiful. I loved the Currier Art Museum!
