As Fluffy as a Hammer
Boy do I love a pink hammer. Todays assignment was to pick an object and change its usual color to make the objects weight appear opposite of what it really is. I first carved the hammer out of styrofoam. It was much easier than I thought. I think more projects with styro will be in my future! I then painted the part of the hammer that would usually be a gray metal, white. Then I made the rest of the hammer a light "fluffy" "cotton candy" pink. I also wanted to keep the overall feeling of feminity because mass is usually not associated with ladiesss. Maybe I can add a chain to the top and use it as a necklace and tell everyone that its from a couture line...eh? No? Ok. Maybe not. This whole project took me maybe 2 hours, it was such a relief. I am working on a sculpy project now that will take me most of the weekend. Sad Face. :(

This is so cute! I really like the idea of taking an item usually associated with masculinity and giving it a feminine side. You can't go wrong with pink! :)
