Faces Everywhere!

I'm not sure why, but I seem to notice faces in a lot of inanimate objects.  Do you?
This is a vintage hammer, owned by my buddy Jim Berry, of Blue Moon Glassworks.  He was showing me how cool it is because of its age, but I was noticing that it looked like it was smiling at me.  (and no, I don't see dead people, either.

This is what it looks like from the side.

So then I found this hook...again, another face.

You see it, don't you?  Looks like he's been telling lies.

Where do you see faces?  Or don't you?

Hipster Puppies and Anthropomorphism

I've always loved Boston Terriers. My friend has one named Sprocket who is dressed in leather and studs and seems quite pleased with his appearance. But his owner is a bit of a biker chick and they look pretty cute together.

Just recently, I saw this website... hipster puppies and fell in love. I haven't ever seen a dog in glasses and a scarf, and I totally fell in love. What a cutie.

So I'm asking you a couple of questions today, do you or would you dress up your pet? If so, what's the most outrageous or cutest outfit that your pet wears (or your friend's pet wears)?

Anthropomorphism (which is the term for attribution of human characteristics to a non-human being- like animals or plants) tends to always intrigue me. Whether the roots are from children's stories that I've always loved or somewhere else, I tend to smile when I see it occurring. Clothes do make the creature, whatever it is. Here is one of my beads that illustrates that. Definitely a handmade glass necklace makes her look ravishing, so to speak.

See you tomorrow for a little more fun. Right here, http://www.StudioMarcy.blogspot.com
