Good macro photography?

I have a nice macro lens for my nikon d5100 and i would like to put it to use. I would be interested in taking photos of something i could set up in my house.almost like an action figure set up where i can make different scenes and take pictures of it.except i don't wanna take pics of action figures. Any ideas?

Come on barbie lets go party its all about depth Perception and lighting pay Ation to the bold collars that stand out could make it better our worse

Go outside and start looking at some of the plants very closeup.

Preset the lens to 1:1 image to subject ratio and then with the camera held up to your eye, spend some time looking at things in your yard. Do not use the auto focus, but make sure that the lens stays at its closest focusing range.

Here is a link that you may enjoy. It involves micro photography using microscopes, but you may enjoy it.
