Oh my Victoria, you what you have done now

This wasn't me.
I wish this was me.

But alas, this was not me.
In light of the fact that this was not me, I would really really like to know who did do this.

I mean, it's almost in front of the yarn store The beehive, or busy bee... something like that.
And it is also infront of the queer thift store, Out of the Closet. Two groups I believe to be really into knitting and crochetting.
So, I don't know who did these amazing trees, but let me tell you, I am jealous of these people in the best way possible.

Thank you whoever did this, for making Victoria, B.C. a better, brighter place to live.
Finding these made my day.
Enjoy!

Happy Birthday Kelsey!

So... I'm a little late on this one.

Granted, I had it stiched up and ready to go on the 10th (which was Kelsey's birthday), but alas, it did not hit the urban land scape until today.

I asked her (being very poor) if there was something I could do for her for her birthday, since she is my roomate and all and it's not nice to ignore people's birthdays. She asked if I would do a tag for her.

I was eager, nay excited and this prospect.

So I got to work, whipped out this lovely baby blanket esq background and then threw Kelsey's name on it!

Tada!

I hope she really likes it. You can kind of see it from our bedrooms in the house, as it is in the park across the street. She's at work right now, so she'll see it when she comes home.

So yeah, Happy Birthday Kelsey!

Enjoy!

Out and about: Anarchy in the trees!!

So, my gf prompted me to do some more rebelous pieces. More edgy and provocative.
I decided nothing said edgy like pink!

Introducing my anarchy piece, in pink! I actually have another anarchy one as well, but it isn't as bold and, well neon.

I put this one in some trees, just off a walking trail in victoria's lovely inner harbour. I really like how bright the pink stands out. And I really enjoyed doing the background as well. The yarn was one that changes colors as you go through it. I quite like how it turned out.

Enjoy!

Gazebo

Some friends of mine and myself have a tendency to hang out at this Gazebo on campus.

I have wanted to do tags in this area for quite some time, but I haven't been sure of what, and where.

At some point, I want to do a tag for an actually pillar of the Gazebo itself (I took the measurements today, so I can work on that while school is out), but in the mean time, I have had this small little tag that I did for my trip to Edmonton that I never did use.

Well today it got used!

I decided it blended nicely to the lamp post.

I put it at such a height that it was in the bush, but not over taken by it either. Visible and yet invisible.

Like a ninja.

It looks really high up, but the picture is taken from some stairs and the lamp isn't that big. Maybe 8 feet high total. In this pic, you can also see just the edge of the roof of our Gazebo.

Also, there has been this metal box sticking out of the greenery on campus by the Gazebo since I have been there. Probably longer than that too. It looks like it used to be a power box, or a converter for flood lights or something. Who knows.

Anyway, it was ugly, this metal thing just sticking out.

So I graffitti'ed it! Now it is covered in rainbow joy!

My friend Dave helped me put it up. Note the wrapped it in yarn.

We couldn't really come up with a clever way to put it up on short notice. He had to help me because the box was at least a good couple of inches out if my complete reach and he is much taller than me. I could grab it, but not well enough to get the piece on better than you see in the picture.

All in all, I think I really cheered up our hang out spot.

Hopefully campus security doesn't just take them all down before we go back next week.

Enjoy!
