scrap metal art

Hubby, I and Joe made a couple of things today for Lil Raggedy Angie's Holiday Open House next Saturday. I have a couple of snowman heads in progress but I'm not ready to share pics of those yet.

Here are the items we made this afternoon.


They aren't perfect, nor are they everyone's "cup of tea" but we like them and enjoyed making them.

I hope you made time to do something fun this holiday weekend.

Those are really fun Myra!! But - yikes - all the wrenches used...I think there are a few who'd be tempted to take them apart and use those puppies...I mean fish...! ;o) Have a great week! Smiles & Hugs ~ Robin

Myra, Carl and I loved these! What creative use of old wrenches. You have such an eye for art in scrap metal. They look prehistoric, don't they? Like fossils found in stone.

I wish I could say we did something fun and artistic this long weekend, but all we did was clean the stained glass studio (aka, the basement, lol) in preparation for going to work on something. I think it's more of a disaster now than when we started, but you've definitely inspired me to finish it up and get to work this week!

How cute! You have the greatest imagination. I love how you used those tools. You are one of those people that my daughter and I say "can think up something to make out of anything". We are jealous in other words. LOL!

Myra, I hope you don't mind, but I featured your blog on my Read 'em all Tuesdays post for Tootsie. I think your blog is just wonderful and want to share you with Tootsie's readers, too!

Hi Myra, over from Karen's by way of Tootsie. How is that for cyberspace travel. I love this idea for a meme. Some great creativity there. My favorite is the fish. Blessings

Fun fish. I guess we won't be making any of those. I got in trouble for putting half a wrench I found in a drawer in a stepping stone/mosiac I was making. Turns out that old piece of junk had a USE.

I came here from Tootsies.

I didn't notice what your creations were made from at first. How clever!

You are so clever. They're definitely my cup of tea!
