What 'better fun', on a rainy Tuesday....take the day off and go to 'Crackedpots' 12th annual art show at Mcmenamins Edgefield.
All the art displayed and for sale must be made out of 80% recycled material.
The perfect Oregon day. 65 degrees and drizzling.
Then do some more looking. Really loved the dog with the cheese grater nose, rain gutter legs, colander hips and cookie press eyes!
Dad loves the silverware bugs.
Metal high heels
toaster becomes dog
bike becomes table
Mom can't resist buying this puppy purse, made from old fabric.
So, we try a little recycling art!!
Washing wine bottles in the pool....
I'm not seeing the artist's vision...
Hmmmmm....We shall call it 'Wine on a Stick'
"Better keep your day job, Mom"...BOL

What a fun place to go see! I loved all the cool artwork! I think we could be happy decorating our whole house from that place.
ReplyDeleteThere's somebody near us who has a wine bottle tree, but they just keep adding random bottles to it and it looks really cool!
Bunny
Wow what a fun outing!
ReplyDeleteHey if tennis balls can grow on trees why not wine for the hoomans?

My mum liked the flowers! I hope they changed your pool water after they washed their dirty ol' bottles in there Wyatt!!?
ReplyDeleteThe wine on the stick is kinda cute, I think?
Tail Wuggles, Rubie.
That is some cool art! Mama's brother lives in Cali and he sometimes sends us pieces of art from the shops there, that people have made from recycled things. We love that!

I love the toaster dog! Mom loves the high heel, of course.
ReplyDeleteWe aren't so sure about that wine bottle tree but all the others are so unique and interesting. Of course, we love that Siberian one - handsome pup.
ReplyDeleteWoos ~ Phantom, Thunder, and Ciara
Wow! You have LOTS of talented and creative artists where you live. We are totally loving all of it! Thanks for sharing! Your Mom's puppy purse is adorable and we think the wine on a stick is perfect! Plus, you can change out bottle colors with the seasons. Genius!
ReplyDeleteThe Road Dogs

We love art, and what fun and funky stuff that all is.
ReplyDeleteAwesome concept! Hope Wyatt had fun!
ReplyDeleteWhat a perfect wonderful fun day! Momma likes the silverware bugs, too! I liked the idea of eating at a cafe in the rain! All of the art was so creative.
ReplyDeleteThe show is hilarious. Good ideas.

Love it!
ReplyDeleteWyatt, you should be more encouraging with regard to your mom's artistic escapades (or you'll find yourself in the dog house with no treats!)
Happy, Waggin' Tails, FUREVER!
Stumpy and me
Wyatt,
ReplyDeleteThat art show looks like a great idea for recyclers. Love Mom's Wine stick.
Pretty colors.
Violet
Been loving Wyatt and all the gardening - your flowers are always beautiful! Never got the wine tree thing!
ReplyDeleteWe are giving you the Versatile Blogger Award!
OMG, I love recycled stuff - especially those shoes! I am pretty sure my mom would break her neck if she tried to walk in those!
ReplyDeleteYour pal, Pip
Hey Wyatt!
ReplyDeleteWow, what a pawesome event! Great way to recycle and entertain at the same time. Cool pooches...love the toaster pup!! Very fun.
Grr and Woof,
Sarge, COP
Cool stuff! You Mom always has neat ideas, Wyatt. I love that doggy purse too!
ReplyDeleteMy granny decorated her "veranda" (small patio) at her assisted living home with blue wine bottles. One man's treasure is another man's junk... or is it the other way around?
ReplyDeleteI'm all packed and ready to go. Oregon is in my top 3!
I'm with you on the dog with the cheese grater nose!
ReplyDeleteHi Wyatt! We think that we would like to come and visit you...it is WAY too hot here!!! Love all of this cool art...the wine on a stick is kinda neat!! Love your mama's bag! Those were pretty funky looking animals...but our favorite was the bike table! xoxo Chloe and LadyBug
ReplyDeleteFabulous art show! What talent :) Er so who's the wino in the house Stanzie? ;P Great bottle tree! Bet when the sun shines through them lots of color splashes on the ground :D Fun!
ReplyDeleteWaggin at ya,

That was really cool, im with your dad I loved the silverware bugs those where awesome. Here in austin Texas there is a motto called "Keep Austin Weird" and since we are a very big artist town there are tons of art people here who do stuff like this and decorate and display in their yards all over austin this reminded me of it! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteHow fun, a wine bottle tree! Mom says she would break the bank at that show! She loves. yard art and recycled art
ReplyDeleteLove it, want it! Thanks for coming for a visit to our mountain top in AR! Adding you to my sidebar, no one should miss out on the fun!
