One Week,
this not only states how long I have until the sound of wedding bells chime for
me but it is also the title of one of my favorite bare naked ladies songs. The countdown
breaks into that final week long stretch and I am actually surprised that none
of my friends have called me with their best impression of the little girl from
the ring.
SEVEN
DAYSSSSS
I was
working on some things for the wedding last night and figured I should post
another one of the projects that I put together for my upcoming event today. As
with most weddings there are centerpieces on all of the tables, with the theme
of our wedding being that our theme is Victorian based we need to have some
very specific pieces. This allowed me to do one of my favorite things without
getting in trouble. I got to go garage saleing digging through others junk is
one of the things about summer I look most forward to.
One such
piece that I found was an old looking bird cage that looks perfect and will fit
right in with the theme. It is not a legitimate bird cage and could never properly
house a flying friend, it is a for display use only type thing but it looks
cool.
Looking at
the birdcage got me thinking and my creative wheels started turning in my head
forming an idea. I headed down to Michaels to gather some supplies for another
project and while I was there I inquired if they had any bird like things that
I could mod. They had a couple things and I found exactly what I was looking
for.
This little
guy was perfect for what I wanted to do, my idea was to make a little clockwork
bird to sit in the cage. I got out my paints and glue gun and sat down with Brudar
for an afternoon of watching shows (Avatar the Legend of Korra) and some arts
and crafts. A couple of hours this little guy was reborn like the proverbial phoenix
to start his life anew.
The day is
swiftly approaching and I still have a lot of things left to make and I will be
trying to post a new on each day leading up to the wedding. Of course I will be
submitting photos of the grand affair after the fact and cannot wait to share
it with all of you.
Sincerely
Urban Yeti
