THE WORLD FAMOUS DOUBLE
HUMMINGBIRD FEEDER HAT
By Roy Road Fish Company
ARTIST’S STATEMENT: Imagine having two beautiful little hummingbirds feeding just to the right and left of you – so close you can feel the breeze generated by the beating of their wings. You can have this experience with the hummingbird hat! Perfect for the person who loves nature but has everything. We can almost guarantee they don’t have one of these.
CLICK TO SEE THIS HAT IN ACTION
The Double Hummingbird Feeder hat was first featured here in October of last year, and also appears on the cover of the Regretsy book. This particular hat was given to me at the book signing in Glendale, and is signed by the artist.

FROM THE REGRETSY BOOK:
WEDDING ATTIRE PAINTING
ARTIST’S STATEMENT: “After my own wedding, I realized that the most expensive piece of clothing I have ever owned was sitting in the closet. I decided to create a painting of it. Now I create custom paintings for others. If you would like your wedding attire (or other favorite outfit) turned into a painting, send me a photo. In about a week I shall create a gorgeous painting for you. The background is completely customizable. I welcome all attire from the traditional to the indie or goth. I can also include any set pieces you’d like in the background such as a beloved pet or theme of the wedding. I’ve done cats, dogs, and mountain so far.”
This is the exact painting that is pictured on page 98 of the Regretsy book, making it even less valuable than if you’d found it in the street.

JUNGLE FEVER SKATEBOARD
SIGNED AND DATED
By Dark Vomit
Dark Vomit (aka Kelly Hutchison) is perhaps best known to Regretsy readers for this painting, which was featured here in November. The image has been made into popular jewelry and now appears in the Regretsy book. The original painting was purchased by me, and hangs proudly over my best friend’s toilet.
Kelly’s skateboards are highly sought after and extremely rare, making him a good deal cooler than anyone I have the right to know.
