SF Craftbombing

We did a little craft bombing in San Francisco yesterday. We hit up a bunch of tourist spots, it was a lot of fun.

This one is sad, I know. It was already knitted in the bag of yarn I got recently. It kinda looks like a sheep’s hide. I couldn’t untangle it and didn’t want the yarn to go to waste so I hung it in front of the Delfina craft fair.

Just spent thanksgiving in Cleveland Ohio and hung up some softies.

now for the next one, i was running around west side market looking for a dead pig… but i ended up putting it at Bistrickys cause the girl pulled out a lamb head. I did however find a pig, and posted a picture of it too for y’all. sorry to all the vegetarians out there (like my partner Owl_or_Nothing)

The Birds — DSP style.

My girlfriend and i just spent the weekend in Bodega Bay, where Alfred Hitchcock filmed The Birds. So i thought it seemed fit to put out a couple of my own. Made me up some bird windsocks, and a little stuffed bird…

i watched this one for a bit, and nobody seemed to notice. it even hit a lady in the head and she didn’t flinch. Came back a couple hours later and it was… still there. Went back the next day… gone. Same with the next one that i put up at a wind sock store haha, i couldn’t help myself.

It almost blends in! heck it’s better than that little one on the third pole from the left. I wonder what they did with it, cause it was a whole different set of windsocks the next day. That had to be a confusing moment. Next up is the church from the birds or you may recognize it from an Ansel Adams photograph…

ta-da! If only i went prepared to craft bomb on more vacations. That’s going to be my new years resolution, but I’ll try and start now. Lets see, whats my next vacation… oh! Beautiful Cleveland Ohio… yeah not a top tourist destination. But i guess i could maybe sew a guitar for the rock and roll hall of fame… (narrator voice) will he come through and do this? Stay tuned.
