Guess what I had for lunch today? Well, actually, I suppose it was dinner, since we were already closed. I was on my own and really didn't feel like cooking just for myself, so I just nuked one of the frozen hamburgers we sell. Emptied out the box, so I had to open another one and... yep, there was another book.
I cut this cheeseburger image off the front of the large box, lined it with gold metallic textured card stock and and cut it in half down the center of the sandwich. I cut round pages from colored paper and layered them into signatures in order--green for lettuce, brown (well, beige) for the meat, yellow for the cheese and red for the tomato slices. I bound the book with a single needle coptic stitch using golden-yellow linen thread.
This one would definitely get a comment or two if you pulled it out of your purse to make a note... or take a bite. (Are you hungry yet?)

That is too cute!
ReplyDeleteOMG! Every time I think you can't think of anything more clever...
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute! :)
Yup, that will get attention, and yes I am hungry now.
ReplyDeleteVery clever! Is this one of a kind book available for sale?
ReplyDeleteWild idea, beautiful work! Creative, funny, wonderful attention to detail-- the kind of art I like the best. Great job!
ReplyDeleteThanks all for the nice comments.
ReplyDeleteRodney - None of the challenge books are for sale yet. I had planned to offer them for sale as I went along, but I have a still-tentative offer for a gallery show of the entire collection in the spring so w ill wait until after that to sell them. Thanks for the inquiry.
Fun!
