Mustachioed Bathroom Art

I like moustaches. My dad’s had one my entire life. My older brother has one (in fact, I interviewed him about his handlebars here). And they’re all the rage in indy art right now. Case in point: world’s biggest moustache pillow in the Fuzzy Ink booth at the Renegade Craft Fair. So when I came across The Count of Luxembourg it was love at first sight. A moustache AND a sword?! For a dollar?? Even the husband agreed he should come home with us.I propped him on a nightstand until I found a proper home, which required some work. If found these plastic lattice panels at Goodwill for $6.99. A coat of teal spray paint, and they were worthy of The Count’s company. I present you…

…the latest addition to our remodeled half-bath.

The Count and his royal plastic lattice, perfectly situated for all our guests to esteem… from the toilet. We think he looks great anywhere.

    Ooo, me likey! Very nice! What a cute count. And his colors go so well with the decor.

      After a failed painting attempt yesterday, I had a stroke of inspiration... The Count has been living in the guest room for a month. I don't know why I didn't think of this sooner!
