Created for my Brother-in-law.
It is his 1st x-mas away from the family & we missed him @ thanksgiving.
(Going to Harvard)
I created a little x-mas package...
I guess you could call it a "Care Package" cause we want to let him know that we care.
Hows that for mail art?
I went a little crazy to say the least...
A flat screen tv - custom floor lamp - custom rug - custom curtains - Belizian artifacts...
3 dimensional x-mas tree - custom x-mas package - a fireplace some fine art & working battery powered x-mas lights in the whole room.
All packaged up like an x-mas gift
I sent a letter in advance on how to "cut open box along the black lines carefully"
.............
1 recycled box
recycled brass wire - Lamp & curtain rod
2 recycled tradeshow dice - lamp & 3D x-mas package
recycled batik material - curtains & rug
recycled wallpaper - dinner table
construction paper - walls & floor
recycled tattoo stencil paper - tv screen
recycled "us weekly" page - Yummy Turkey
auto body resin - Belize artifact reproduction
SIDENOTE:
My b-in law got married in Belize and while we were out checking out sites, I somehow convinced the local site manager to allow me to make a copy of an artifact.
For some weird reason - I always carry some quick set, 2 part, RTV molding material with me everywhere I go.
My B-in Law has never seen this item & I am sure that it will make him like me even more!!!

This is wonderful, Camel! Harvard is mighty cold this time of year and this will warm the cockles of your brother-in-law's heart.

That is without a doubt the most fabulous care package I have ever seen. I envy your brother-in-law!
