Well, it's not mine yet but I know for a fact that Santa reads my blog.
It's a beautiful object and it's just creepy enough to be interesting. It's made by Galassia in the tiny town of Corchiano, Italy.
But I have a history with these sorts of things.
Meet my toothbrush holder.
I use an electric toothbrush so now it's my dental tool holder, but you get the point.
I bought that at an artist's garage sale almost 15 years ago and I know nothing about it other than it cost $5. I think it's cool. The cracks on it are from when I dropped it ten years ago. They give it character but I'd trade in all that character for a new foot in a heartbeat.
I think my foot's lonely and it needs a hand to hold the soap.
OMG, the foot AND the hand are totally creepy! But fun too :-) My brother can stretch out his toes like that - always freaks me out!
ReplyDeleteIf I ever come across a foot toothbrush holder, I'll let you know :-)

Oh I can spread my toes too, I think that's what led me to that toothbrush holder in the first place. Have a great birthday today Kelly.
ReplyDeleteOh Paul... it IS creepy
ReplyDeleteActually, the manufacturer suggest hanging it over a bidet. Now that's creepy.
ReplyDeleteI love it. Reminds me of one of my favorite scenes from Willy Wonka.
ReplyDeleteI love it! I love adding a sense of humor to the home.
ReplyDeleteIt is kind of Wonka-ish Melody. Didn't he have hands as a coat rack in the 1971 movie?
ReplyDeleteSteph: Whimsy rules!
It's creepy. Where's the mime that goes with it? Can it do back massages? Then I might like it better.
ReplyDeleteMelody: I'll bet a collection of those things couple make a terrific coat rack. Pity it's not animated.
ReplyDeleteAlexandra: It's the creepiness that makes it so appealing. If it did back massages I'd never leave the house.
It's kind of an 'Adam's Family' 'thing'.
