To Boldly Go Where No Monkey Has Gone Before...
While visiting Palm Springs recently, my mom & I went to see Star Trek. Which was awesome! For both the classic Star Trek fan (mom) & non-fan (me - I havent' seen a full episode of any generation of Star Trek). I mention going to see the movie because of this guy:
The Spock Monkey (not Zach Quinto) is currently on Etsy and his creator has a couple of other comic/action hero geektastic monkeys available in her store The Sock Drawer. But you may want to hurry over...she doesn't have that many Spock Monkeys in stock. I like that she has kits available with instructions, patterns, and materials. Nice idea. I may have to try my hand at making one of these for my mom, seeing as she is a fan.

Found Crafts: The Gingerbread House
The Yarn Cart has inspired me to post about crafts that I find out and about. I love finding random things on the street, even more so when it's something crafty. Although, some things cause me to wonder why someone would abandon them (if they were indeed abandoned). So, from my Christmas vacation, a gingerbread house:
I can't decide if it was abandoned or if someone wanted to share the joy of gingerbread houses. Either way, I was happy to find it that day.

Found Crafts: The Yarn Cart
As we were about to leave the grocery store yesterday, I looked up and saw this on the other side of the window:
A grocery cart covered in yarn! So of course, I quickly went outside to get more photos:
and a close up, so the work that went into it can be admired:
I don't know who did it or why they did it, but I love that they did do it. The time and work involved in such a project is almost mind boggling. Renegade Crafter, I salute you!
Finds like this make me really happy that camera phones exist. I have a pretty decent kodak digital camera, but it's a bit too bulky to carry around in my purse. So despite the lower megapixel count (this one weighs in at 2 megapixels - almost as much as my first digital camera!) and picture quality, I'm happy that I always have a little camera with me.
