Assemblage Fun With Georgia Moon & JennyK

Geo and I try to get together every couple weeks for some silly fun assemblage time and tonight was no exception! After stuffing ourselves on chicken parmesan (thanks Trader Joes!) we went into the lab and came up with these little characters.

Geo found the hat flourish first and it said “baby” to her so she found a great lock body as the basis, then some parts out of an old piano became his arms (please note the pacifier) the legs are game pieces, the stand was part of a wheel off an old cabinet. 

But that hat takes the cake!  It is made with a metal edge off a paint roller and a shoe from a vintage Monopoly game.

Here's a close up of baby's little body.

I wanted to make a little king and used a crown nut as his crown, some sort of metal twirly thing for his neck flair, star washer nuts made the epaulet on his shoulders, I have no idea what his legs are but loved the crown zigzag at the bottom, springs adorn his sleeves...

...and he’s holding a scepter in his mighty little hand. The red heart came off a vintage cocktail swizzle stick.

A closer look at those legs.

We laughed ourselves silly and fortunately had no mouse visitors this time! Thanks for letting us share our fun with ya’ll! We wish you could have joined us!
