Altered Cigar Box Purse

I know this has nothing to do with this weeks theme. Just thought I'd share this purse I made. I found it in a thrift store and I altered it over the past few days. It was just a plain white cigar box. I added everything you see.

Needs a Title

This is a collab I did with John Osgood. It needs a title.
C'mon, all you creative folks. Help me.

Dishpan Hands

It is so good to be unpacked (mostly) and back to work, I've missed you all!

Theme of the Week - Monochrome

Sloppy

I only had access to a camera for a day so... this is what I came up with.

Ticker Tape Machine

I tried to use things that I already had at home to make this assemblage.  The 1970s glass dome came from a thrift shop and it once held dried flowers and a fake butterfly.  The rubber stamp and tape dispenser are vintage office supplies from my collection.  I did use something new which was the Wall Street Journal.  I lifted the stocks off the page with clear tape and applied it to the old tape to create the ticker tape.

Taking Junk For A Walk

Stuff I picked up on walking to town and back. The road sweeper goes round on a regular basis so the streets are relatively clean so pickings were slim. Had enough to fill this child's wooden necklace maker set I found in a charity shop. Not sure which I prefer, the minimal arrangement without the necklace beads or with all the beads and letters added so uploading both.

The Knee Bone's Connected to the Thigh Bone

For this assemblage I used bits and pieces I already had. An old wooden box, celluloid doll arms, puzzle blocks to which I glued vintage anatomical images, flash attachment from a twin lens reflex camera, a marsupial skull and a bird bone found on a hiking trip to Tasmania. I used two different types of glue (strong craft glue and superglue) - the blocks are not attached and can be moved around and rotated. The "head" can also be rotated at the base of the flash attachment (for batteries) which has a thread.
