Living life for when the creative juices are flowin.
I have always loved making things, ever since I was a child I loved building something of my own and enjoying what I have made. I always loved having my Legos strewn about on the floor as I pieced together all kinds of creations, which was followed by my Dad taking a painful stroll over them in the dead of night.
As I grew up, I took a huge interest in prop building. My first prop was a deadmau5 head that I built for Halloween. It turned out better than I could have hoped, and I was super proud of it. This was followed by a few more projects, and countless more added to the bucket list.
I started out my store when I had the idea to sell wire sculptures of various sea creatures, hence the name "wirefauna". Very soon after, my longtime love for Ghostbusters props reignited, and I decided to start selling 1984 style ribbon cables for proton packs, making my shop name something of an artifact.
I've enjoyed dropping a run of cables here and there when my very busy life permits. Not only is it awesome to see my customers proton packs, but it's great to actually have some funds that I can invest in my passion, I'm currently working on a proton pack project that is approaching a decade in development, almost there! And who knows, maybe I'll return to the wire sculptures at some point, or start selling whatever else I get the urge to.
Starting and maintaining my store has given me the ability to pursue my passion of prop making. I have always felt that it is important to not just take care of your responsibilities, but also pursue your passions and have fun in your life, and without my store and the support of the wonderful communities that I take part in, I would not be able to pursue those passions.
Thanks for looking!
