so i've been making more papier-mache pieces of late. i love working with papier-mache, i find it so relaxing (when it's turning out the way i want) and i've been incorporating a lot of papier-mache details to my pieces, mainly in the form of domed or ornamental 'roofs'.
a few weeks ago we were doing some grocery shopping in chinatown and one of the store owners gave lili a musical box as a gift. it wasn't very appealing visually (painted to look like a radio with little plastic mice running over it) so of course i ripped it apart (keeping the main shape) and turned it into this....and had a lot of fun doing it! i love making things for lili, it gives me an excuse to not do my work and throw myself into projects i would normally deem to not have the time to do.
