Prints On Wood..

With Xmas coming up, trying to find gifts for everyone can be difficult. Lucky that my brother had a recent wedding so I had some subject matter for making some presents for everyone.

I decided that transferring pictures to some panels of wood could make for some unusual images.

After going to the local hardware store for a plank of pine I set about work with some laser prints, gel medium and a jar of matt mod podge.

 A long time ago, my mate Ditto came around with his old iPod that wouldn't hold charge. I had a look and couldn't fix it, he had already replace the battery 3 times. There was no hope for it but I asked if I could keep it in the hopes of trying to get something out of it. Then 4 years later inspiration came in the form of a new desk clock, everybody needs a desk clock...


After the break you can see a brief walk through...

Retro Styles...

My old headphones have an extremely long cable that tangles with great ease, and I was in need of a simple cable management solution. When I came across an old box of my Super 8 film spools, the solution was at hand.....

Maybe I could roll my AV cables on the 16mm reels, Xmas lights on the 35mm...mmmm...got me thinking....

Time is short....

Been a little on the busy side lately & haven't had time to work on projects... but here are a few sample pieces of comic covered jewelry I have been working on...


more pics of these and other bangels after the break....

Hair today, gone tomorrow.

I love feathers, vintage jewellery and all assortments of things. I love looking at my collections, but I find it really difficult to part with my items. However, my craft stash is getting beyond ridiculous proportions. So, I have started making things with it. Here are some hair pieces I made today.

Marvel At The Cash...2....

I really wasn't going to do another post about comic book wallets, that was until I came across an old ad for the video game, Marvel Nemesis. The panels in this one are supported with board.

I think it is a really nice piece to carry about.

The Marvels Of Cash....

So my trusty Poketo wallet finally died. Well not totally, but the only thing holding it together were the contents. Why spend money on something to hold money....

Get ready for the zombpocalypse... Part 1.

So, if you know Alby and I, you'll know that we have a thing for zombies. Don't know why, it is just a thing we have. So, in line with that we have created some zombie themed craft in our time. Here is one project I'm still working on which I like to call "the Disney horde".

Old Friend...

I have seen the old Mac Plus as a fish tank, but I wanted something different......

Wedding Part II....

Not sure if it is finished yet, Hope hasn't seen it.

To be continued.....?
