Kitty Condos....

This as you can imagine is another bank project.  I love these fabulously whacky things I get to do where I work.  One of our bosses at the bank is a huge supporter of the Spartanburg Humane Society and so we had a little project this week for them.  Our mission was to take standard super thick cardboard boxes and thurn them into chic little hideaways for the shelters cats and kittens.  We picked up our supplies on Tuesday morning and then we dove into Operation Kitty Condo.

I was, as usual, slightly more jacked up about playing with magic markers than my coworkers, but gradually we began to find the children buried deep within their hardened adult exteriors.

Here is a sampling of our creative endeavors :)
Donna went for it with her bright colorful rainbow, which Debra adorned with her St. Patty's Day inspired pot of gold.  Harriett topped it off with a myriad of stars and the result is this colorful number that for me is somewhat remenisent of my childhood days watching Rainbow Bright.


June took home a box to her grandson and he did a great job decorating!
I am sure all the kitties will love having these friendly puppies around to look at.


Meredith is our ever trusty artist, who may have left us in the banking world but is always there to lend us a hand.  Debra handed off a box to her and she made this great town house box with charming hanging baskets and little fence.
Debra and I decided to top it off with a somewhat spanish inspired roof.

We aren't quitting our day jobs but I think we make pretty good roofers!


I, still entranced with Wonderland, went for a Red Queen's castle theme and I think Iracibeth would have been pleased!  I personally am thrilled with my White Rabbit and think his huge scale should be enough for me to keep my head!
I did my top with a completely transformed Absolem.

This may be the only time I am ever able to draw an Alan Rickman movie character biut I'm all good with that!


Suzanne's box will be complete in the morning, but here is what we have so far.
June's grandson wanted some Clemson love on his box, so I helped him out a little.  My Gamecock blood runs deep, but ya got to help a kid out where you can!
Tomorrow our boxes compete against the downtown competition and after Polly's win last week I am hoping for another creative win for the Reidville crew!
