Robots 4 U
Moving has eaten my brain PLUS I'm traveling for work this week, so in place of any coherent post, I bring you ROBOT ART, courtesy of Etsy. (As always, click on the images to visit the listings.)
Robots in love. With guns. What is better than that? Nothing.
These are the robots capitalism was supposed to bring us. Where are they?
Even robots get cranky.
Awwwww, robot earrings!
Robots + cupcakes, two great memes that taste great together!
And one last one:
Robot fabric! I wish there was more than one yard ...
Here's hoping that robots put YOU in a good mood, too. Happy Wednesday!

Love the robots! I think the earrings may be my favorite. They certainly put me in a good mood. Thanks for the fun photos!

Oh, buy the one yard, you know you want to, make a blouse and a solid skirt or a two toned dress...

That second one down is actually a star projector from a planetarium - I know because I used to operate one for a living. Now I'm drooling over that print on Etsy :) ... thanks!

I adore the cranky robot. He shakes his tiny fists at the sky!

Business travel and trying to move at the same time? Good luck!
Funny timing on the Robot post, as I got an email on a sale for robot (and other) fabrics:
Abstract Robot Interlock
or this
Robot Rib Knit
I wish they were woven fabrics...

I LOVE robots! :) Might have to pick me up a set of those robot earrings. They'd look mighty cool dangling from my robot-lovin' lobes.

That cranky one looks more grimly revolutionary, to me. The fist in the air, the grimace, and all.

"That second one down is actually a star projector from a planetarium"
- that's exactly what I wanted to write! I did not use to work in a planetarium, but it's such a specific shape that I cannot forget it.

The robot ear rings are really cool. Can you tell me where to get it? Thanks!

I have not been affected by robots in this lifetime, as of yet, and so remain neutral to them. But I DO think similar earrings in different colors are cute. Mix it up a little, you know? They become more like charms on a bracelet than a perfectly matchy-matchy pair.
What you can do is buy 2 sets of earings of the same make (but different color or whatever), switch the partners, and give the other resulting set to an adventurous friend.
I did this with Mexican earrings (matching a rooster and a donkey) and also some tiny pressed flowers in turquoise and/or yellow glass. My sister liked her set because they were real conversation starters. People would say, "Do you know you're wearing different earrings?" and she'd say, "Yes! Isn't it great?"

My robotic arm is in love with your robot fabric. Hot and electric!

Whoops - Blogger doesn't want me to share capitalism's real robots with the world! Here are the robots the future hath wrought - this robotic arm is not unlike Fortune's hallucinations. But they never expected the robots to flourish... IN SPACE!
