Bragging Rights

So, I've been hinting rather strongly to my husband (it still sounds so funny to me, "my husband"!) that he should make another salvage robot, since his first one, here, was such a success. I also suggested that it be a snowman, befitting the season.  Well, once he got in the swing of things there was no stopping him, and look at this handsome guy!


This is my favorite part - Mario found a few old vinyl records a while back at a salvage place, and remembered that one of them was a Christmas one, so he cut out the center and was able to put it behind the glass of the center gauge. I just love it!   And for his scarf, he even used fabric from an old Pendleton robe that was my Grandfathers, it's damaged but we couldn't part with it.  Am I a lucky girl or what?


Posing with other Christmas decorations...


We'll be leaving town this weekend through New Year's, so I want to wish everyone a very happy and safe holidays!

  2. I think your husband will be having an exhibition of his own soon - or a joint one with you which would be more fun :)

    You are so obviously well suited!

    I LOVE the snowman you will treasure him forever.... I adore his bulb mittens!!!! What fun!

    I hope you both have a really wonderful Christmas and a happy and healthy 2013

    Love Karenx

  4. I LOVE HIM (the snowman that is, not your husband. Although I'm sure your husband is gorgeous too, otherwise you wouldn't have married him.....). Love the record label in the middle, perfect!

    Wishing you a wonderful Christmas, your first as Mr + Mrs :)

  7. The snowman is fantastic - I just love the little bulb hands and the fact that the record label is so Christmassy - perfect! What a super-talented husband you have - you make such a creative team that I second Karen's comment about you exhibiting your work together!
    Hope you have had a great Christmas and New Year.
