The Tin Creatures

Right before Christmas, we walked around some craft booths, and this was my favorite.  There is a very talented man in this area who makes people and animals from household items and kitchen supplies. There were a lot here, so I will be posting more once in awhile. Here is a robot made from a lunch box, a camera, and candlesticks.

The dog has Jello mold feet, and an old tin can for his body.

This mouse has tea strainer ears and spoon feet.

And this guitar player has bolts for fingers.


Which is your favorite?

Oh my husband would love the guitar playing robot! I really like the dog.

These are so cool. How fun. A long time ago I saw a website for a guy who made things like this from wire but I think he also used other objects too. Maybe he called it bent objects.
Anyway, I love these and I think my favorite is the mouse.

Those are really adorable. Expensive too - but I imagine it was a lot of work too. I like the guitar man in the rocker. So cute!
Love, sandie
