My Monster Mailbox

I hate getting bills in the mail. So I decided to make it a little more fun. 

Here's my old white rusty mailbox about to be given a makeover so drastic, 
even the mailman himself might not recognize it.



I found a big bouncy ball at Target and sliced it in half to make his eyes:



 
You see that blue swirl to the right of the picture? That is a plastic placemat that I painted and cut out. It became the tail.



A glob of clay was formed into his nose. My dog, Doodah, approved. 




The placemat also served as the ears. I spray painted a few clear coats on him, and waited for the postman.

Brown and Blue

Thought I'd post a picture of my new blue hair. It's darker blue/teal now, but this color is cool too.
