Oh god, that’s uh-may-zing! I actually gasped, loudly, in shock and delight when I saw this. You REALLY, ACTUALLY took my breath away (cue synthesizer).
nice work bec – though i am a little disappointed that i didn’t win the worthless prize…. gosh….
DUDES AND DUDETTES – this has been an absolute pleasure, and a complete rip snorter of a giggle.
remember these words of genius—
i skant, therefore i am friggin legend
peez out biznitches thanks for all the laughs
I love how she’s looking out of the corner of her eye…like she’s alone in the room, posing in her skants and a stashe…and if anyone walks in, she really has no idea how to explain what she is doing…
krystyna – That is exactly what was occurring. Even worse, I couldn’t get a good shot with my camera with my lights on so I had to turn off the lights and put on the flash. So I was standing in the room in the dark posing in my wolfenskantz, a kiwi made of fur and leather (100% VINTAGE!!!!1!1!), fingerless gloves, a toad, and a stache on a stick.
Fabulous! Does anyone else think the top of the wolf’s head totally looks like a merkin when inverted? Or am I just a perverted old lady?
Love the toad!
Classic Regretsy….it will be all the rage by Monday morning…EVERYONE will be selling them! Gotta have THAT on a t-shirt! Thanks for all the laughs, best Friday night I’ve had in a loooonnnngggg time!
Ive actually mentioned this to Helen via email already, but I think it bears mentioning here. These regretsy contests have restored a little bit of my faith in humanity. No, seriously. It’s awesome to see so many folks who are both creative and whimsicle.
(I told this to my wife and she said “You’re kidding, right?”)
I really thought Herbert needed some interwebz love. He’s pretty boss himself. And to think, my mom was going to give him to Goodwill. TREASURE, I TELL YOU!
I thought about wearing some skants myself but I really did not want to stretch out a perfectly good shirt with my big butt. Now I am sad I didn’t, the prize is sweet!
WOW stunning and distrubing there is someone here in my hometown who sold chocolate moustaches on a stick at the biggerst craft show in town-no really I can’t make whis shit up!

Hurry up and get this copyrighted before Ed Hardy or Ralph Lauren starts selling this as their own. Then you better shave that moustache (Al Green is on his way over)

If you didn’t realize,
Rebecca is wearing her sweater as pants.
She’s not wasted,
She did it just to win a prize.
Now she’s finding out that it’s hard to dance.
Her skants are a sweater worn upside down.

January 29, 2010 at 7:51 pm
Man, I shoulda thought to add in some of the actual crazy stuff I have around here, rather than photoshopping it in! Mighta put me over the top!
Seriously, I started laughing as I read “And for added whimsy, I have included a bird on my head” LOVE LOVE LOVE
January 29, 2010 at 7:51 pm

January 29, 2010 at 7:51 pm

January 29, 2010 at 7:51 pm

January 29, 2010 at 7:54 pm

January 29, 2010 at 7:55 pm
The inverted wolf looks kinda like my husband.
January 29, 2010 at 7:55 pm

Honey, call 911 – Regretsy made me hurt myself…
January 29, 2010 at 7:56 pm
Phew, good stuff. Great party. Whimsy and weirdness galore.

January 29, 2010 at 7:56 pm
ROFLMFAO. Jeesus kristos. I can’t even figure out where to start on this. I’m just dying here.
January 29, 2010 at 7:56 pm
Wolfenskantzen! Those skants are crucial!
(grandma’s toad is very nice, but too bad it’s not a halk toad…)
January 29, 2010 at 7:58 pm

She doesn’t have any up right now but I’m sure she’d be well pleased to make you a few
January 29, 2010 at 8:09 pm
I love how she’s looking out of the corner of her eye…like she’s alone in the room, posing in her skants and a stashe…and if anyone walks in, she really has no idea how to explain what she is doing…
January 29, 2010 at 8:10 pm

BTW, if you are a turtle fan:
The turtle song!

Part of a radio ad campaign for the Oregon aquarium. I dont even live in Oregon, but I know about this song. That’s how awesome it is.
The lyrics:

January 30, 2010 at 1:37 pm
Rebecca, not only are your skants awesome, but my family has a gigantic ceramic toad that my grandmother painted that looks just like that one.
January 30, 2010 at 3:03 pm
It was simply fun to sit on the sidelines and watch the ensuing hilarity
