The Gift of Skulls

Just wanted to share a few lovely skull gifts I was given recently.

This beautiful cup was made by Bruce Gholson of Bulldog Pottery...

I got a set of fun duct tape bookmarks from Lauralyn Sciretta as part of her Bookmark-A-Day project (which I featured recently on my other blog MakeSomething365.com) which she sent along with a fun collapsible skeleton...

Thanks guys!

[BONUS] The Gift of Skulls: Skateboard Pez

During my recent trip to Sandusky, Ohio I was given this wonderful gift of art from R!ch Cihlar, who was inspired in part by Skull-A-Day to create his own daily Pez art project! This piece was made on day 233...

You should definitely check out the other pieces R!ch is making as part of this project on his blog HERE.

Thanks again R!ch!

[BONUS] The Gift of Skulls: 365 Skeletons?

I was the keynote speaker at the recent Virginia Arts Education Association annual conference, and a craft party following my talk I was gifted this lovely creation by one of the attendees Ruby...

On the back she wrote "I'm challenging you to make 365 Skeletons!" While I appreciate her enthusiasm, I definitely won't be taking on that challenge anytime soon, but hey is anyone else out there is up for it? I'd love to see what you make!

The Gift of Skulls: Mail Art

Wenchkin (one of the artist's behind this week's giveaway) recently sent me a couple of great pieces as part of her daily mail art project...

You can see more of her great work HERE and follow her mail art progress HERE.
