My version of creativity

Today I was looking for something in my glovebox, and came across a long-forgotten mangled doll head:



I guess this in itself needs some explaining. Ever since my first car broke down in highschool and I was forced to drive a piece of shit Chevrolet Cavalier with the roof rusting out, a distinct smell of mildew eminating from the floor, and a million other reasons to hate this machine, I decided that I was going to make that piece of shit as shitty as I could. So no happy little Jack-In-The-Box or 76 Gas antenna ball would do... No, those were just too cheery for this car. Since I had a Barbie doll head with a nail driven through it for a mirror ornament, I decided to stick with the doll head theme for my antenna as well. I went through several of these little gems, and unfortunately my favorite one got stolen. (it featured a blue mohawk) But the last one my Cavalier proudly donned through my first year of college found its final resting place in my glovebox, to lie dormant and at peace.... until today. I should note that this thing was actually clean when I got my hands on it. Those "dollar stores" are a great place to find cheap baby heads for mutilation, and this particular head had her hair colored black with a Sharpie marker, her eyes and mouth completely blacked out, and the word "CUNT" etched across her forehead. All this has sadly faded away with the exception of her lips and eyes, but c'mon, aint she still a looker!

Well, today I bought one of those hot glue guns and some fake sunflowers with the intention of making a little housewarming gift for my mother in her new house, when I figured I oughtta resurrect the beloved evil doll. So I decided to make myself a little key holder to hang by the door, since I'm always forgetting where I put my keys when I need to leave in a hurry. And look out Martha Fucking Stewart!
