Mr Steam Potato Punk Head


Sarah sez, "I participated in a design/craft swap. I was given 'an old toy' as a material and 'steampunk' as a theme to start. So, I bought a 10 dollar old-school Mr. Potato Head and used objects found around the house to make Spudnik. Then, I made a capsule/telescope that would hold documents that tell the story of Spudnik and his crucial role in saving the spirit of humanity from apocalyptic doom. I had a lot of fun making this, so I thought I'd share."

Oh, brava, Sarah!
