the Good News

It may be summer, but I've been working on one of a kind holiday items for a Christmas in July promotion. So Christmas has been on my mind, you might say. I woke up from dreams involving cell phones and tornadoes, and quite a different scene assembled in my mind. A cell phone nativity, where the phones were painted up like matryoshka, Russian nesting dolls. The idea was weird but fascinating. And the phones made a sort of pun on the Good News (the message of Christ). So I really couldn't pass it up.

I'll be asking around for old cell phones. Once I've collected a dozen or twenty to select from, I'll get started. Will keep you posted.

What strange things have YOUR dreams inspired you to create?
