maker faire bound!



Last weekend mister participated in our local mini maker faire and this weekend we're off to see the sites in San Mateo for the main event. Here are oodles of photos from our mini maker faire adventure and if you are on instagram try searching for tinkers damn or SLOMMF# to see some fun pics of mister's ukes!

aren't they gorgeous?

I got to play this wee washboard...

From cookie tin ukes to knot tying to robot making to puppet shows, there was a lot to make and do at our fine mini event. We can't wait until next year, I'm going to join in the fun a well, what shall I teach people to make?

mr. a-go-go makes music

 
 
 
 Have I gotten all mooney-eyed gaga over the mister's ukuleles yet? He builds them out of cookie tins we scavenge from the thrift outlet. They truly sound tremendous and are super pretty to boot! We will be showing them and doing a little music demo at the San Luis Obispo Mini Maker Faire this May. If yer around town come on by, say howdy and we'll teach you how to play Cletus the Slack Jawed Yokel.
