George Carlin, looking PISSED. I don’t think I’d want to share my home with him.

Because nothing says holidays like a controversial political statement

Dick Cheney as a jailbird. Hanging on your tree. That’s sure to cause hours of family merriment.

{Source} $100 marked down from $150. This is a collector’s item, folks. But my neighbor collects old tires in his back yard, so I guess collecting is in the mind of the beholder.

PS Yes, I know it is April.

The Babies in Bow Ties Saga Continues

suebob — Fri, 13 Apr 2012 14:22:44 +0000

I just had to share this, given the post of the other day about babies in bow ties: more proof that babies hate them. Look at this kid – he doesn’t even have to use his words to tell it like it is!

Little man is mad! Little man is scornful! Little man just wants his jammies back!

Holiday Confusion Syndrome Strikes Again

suebob — Mon, 12 Mar 2012 03:42:46 +0000

Can we not get an innoculation against this sort of thing? First it was snowmen dressed like the Holy Family, now Easter Claus:

It looks like they aren’t going to stop, either:

Designing Santa Claus is so much fun that I can’t limit myself to just having Christmas Santa gourds, so I decided to create them for all the holidays. Easter Claus is one of the first of many seasonal Santas.

I guess the saving grace is that the person actually has artistic talent.

Eye see you

I’ll admit I love dear one-eyed dogs. Or three-legged dogs. Or old white-muzzled dogs gimping along on stiff legs. Ok, I’m a sucker for dogs.

The idea of an eye patch for a one-eyed dog is kinda cute. An empty eye socket can look kind of scary, and a little cover…ok, I can see it. But what I can’t see (no pun intended) is an eye patch with an EYE embroidered on it. A human eye. With fake eyelashes:

And of course no human-eyed dog eye patch collection would be complete without a holiday version”

After all the Christmas presents are delivered…

After all the Christmas presents are delivered, Santa and Mrs. Claus get down to business.

Hope you got everything you wanted for Christmas.

A Surprise from Santa!

suebob — Sat, 24 Dec 2011 05:31:58 +0000

Hey kids, Santa has a surprise for you! Just pull the ribbon to open up and find out what he has…in his lap!

{Source} $4800. Nothing a lifetime of therapy won’t cure.

Merry Christmas, everyone, from your friendly wackjobs here at Craftastrophe. We hope Santa brings you something handmade and not terribly awful.

Totally Does Not Look Like Any Yeti I Have Ever Seen

suebob — Fri, 23 Dec 2011 15:35:27 +0000

The countdown continues with another nativity scene – Yetis this time. Because nothing says “Birth of Jesus” like a large, hairy, Himalaya-dwelling wolf-God-man.
Though after a week of Meerkat Wise Men, Pinto Bean Holy Families, and scary Jazz Hands, I must say nothing surprises me anymore.

I Diagnose Holiday Confusion Syndrome

Somewhere between “Away in a Manger” and “Frosty the Snowman,” something fell through the cracks.

We Three Kings with Big Eyes Who Live Underground

suebob — Mon, 19 Dec 2011 02:56:09 +0000

Meerkat Three Kings. Apparently the Meerkat Nativity is a bit of an annual tradition. I love these guys:

Is it blasphemous to imagine the 3 magic kings to be exactly like this – adorable, ground-dwelling mammals?
