Art Ruins Reputations
By Susan Mercedes. Filed in Family |Meet the Bubbly family…made from champagne corks.
Months ago it started with only one character. But Elle got all crafty on me. She made more than are shown in this picture, but she had to give them to her best friend. You know, so her friend’s parents could see the art supplies I provide for my kid. Awesome.

In order to prove my unlushness, I’ll be running to a crafts store this weekend. Clearly my house needs some fucking canvas or foam board or something.

The stuff that doesn’t come from the craft store, makes the best stuff. Just sayin’.

TheMooKooJoe: I love that you, the non drinker, support my 10 year old using champagne corks for art supplies. Perhaps it is a success!

I support the using of champagne corks for something other than corking champagne.

TheMooKooJoe: Once a champagne cork is out, it is useless for corking a bottle. Therefore your support of these “art supplies” means that the bubbly inside must be polished off. I’ll do that!!!

Well, I don’t go shopping for Champagne a lot, but I would think you could snag a few from the store if you asked for ‘em!

Wow, she’s really creative! They remind me of those weeble-wobbles.

Tiffani: They do look like weeble-wobbles. Personally, you should see how creative I am after enjoy a bottle of bubbly! She must get it from me.

Okay, she’s getting really good at those! Can I commission her to make one in my likeness?

Laura: I have Elle working on her camo fanny packs, because I’m certain you’ll be requesting that on your bubbly person!
