TMI for NPR

Tmi

NPR is having a contest to design a "handmade menorah or kinara (the candle holder for the Kwanzaa holiday) or a Christmas tree ornament." They're looking for "designs that reflect the news of 2006."

Well, someone already did a Suri Cruise ornament, so I thought I'd translate my Lindsay Lookoutbelowhan drawing into felt...especially since it's not just Lindsay anymore who is allowing her ladybits to be lit by a million flashbulbs. No, this has turned into a rather alarming trend with drunken pop stars and squint-eyed heiresses jumping on the bandwagon. I'm not sure what's next...but I'm pretty sure I don't want to see it.

Here is the Flickr set of NPR designs. So far my favorite is HO HO HO-abeaus Corpus Everyone!

i now know NOT to come check your blog while i am having my first cup of morning coffee...scalding coffee spew is the result. That is SO wrong, but SO FUNNY...and we were JUST having a conversation about this topic here in my house. What is up with these shameless girls??? Not that i wasn't a shameless girl myself once upon a time....but i aways managed to keep my crotch to myself, no matter HOW wasted i got. :D

Anyway, you have single handedly created the funniest thing i have yet to see this xmas season. I am almost afraid to go look at the flickr set....it's too damn early to giggle so much.

Shame is so...last century!

Dignity is so... played out.

i can only imagine that they pay SO much for those wax-jobs that they feel obligated to show it off, maybe?

Not only is the concept funny, but the ornament is cute, too!

The li'l pink beaver is adorable.

By the way, when can we expect a December calendar page? :)

Can I buy your beaver ornament? Seriously.

You want to buy it?! I hadn't really thought of selling it. It was just a joke...

Yes. I want to buy it. I think it's fantastic. I'll take it for free, but I would understand if you don't want to give it away to some random stranger. :)

What a sweet bunny.I would really like to have one.I love such crafts and think they are really beautiful and should be more popular among people.
