the ugliest wreath

Jul 29, 2005 00:58

i love us. and by us i mean our little circle of connected brains. we know who we are. separate we're good, but together, our ideas are amplified times a million and we come up with the best shit! our brains put together gives us all this creative energy that keeps going, we all just feel like creating crazy things constantly. i've got the creative outlet at work, with doing some fun hair, which i've been actually doing a ton of lately, really fun stuff, cool customers who let me do whatever. makes me happy.

so this is the result of getting a letter in the mail from my neighborhood association. 2nd notice to take down my "no soliciting or any other religious nuts" sign from my door. apparently in the handbook i have with the rules in it, it says the only kind of sign permitted outside your house is a "for sale" sign. which is fucking retarded, but whatever. i'll take down the sign. so i figure out a way around the rules. what do people have on their doors instead? a wreath! so i decided to make a "no soliciting" wreath. so off to ac moore we go. picked up a bunch of random shit at first, the idea being to make it as ugly as possible, so that theyd be sorry they made us take down our unsightly sign. i don't believe theres any rules about wreaths haha. so we got a bunch of really ugly shit, this nasty brown fabric that looks like bird feathers and hair combined, and some random ugly shit that we ended up putting back since we came up with a better idea. halloween stuff was out, so we picked up a skeleton, then found a big wood cross that he would fit just perfectly on. heather and i looked at each other and said "we *have* to do this!" so we got wooden letter to spell out "no soliciting" as well as some stuff to make a halloween wreath cause we're dorks and now think that making wreaths is a fun activity. picture frames are on sale really cheap there this week too!

so we paint the cross black, with black glitter. in the meantime, mike is painting blood on the skeleton, eventually making him look like hes being crucified. it only gets more complicated... spikes through his hands and feet, barbed wire. he looks so fucking good we can't bear to put him outside on a wreath where we can't stare at him all day, and where he could get stolen or broken. so we decided to keep him and just make the wreath ugly as fuck. which it is. i think i wanna add more to it though before i can officially call it "the ugliest wreath ever" although it probably is since most people try to make their wreaths pretty, lol.

i don't care if you think we're crazy, we love us. and skeleton jesus.



don't fall in love with him. his heart beats only for jesus








isn't that yarn shit gross looking?


so do we think this might have been a little much for the neighbors? its almost worth it to put out just to see how much it could piss a person off.

pictures, haha, sillyness, heather&mike
