Recently, a Bat-Blog Reader sent us some photos of some crafts she's made & some that she is working on. She made some Batman-themed Dresses that I featured in another posting. ( Just scroll down a little or check the Bat-Archives ). She also made some of the items posted here. The first photo is a really cute JOKER / HEATH LEDGER Plush Rag Doll. This was one of my favorite pieces because it's so funny. When you look at the details it's pretty accurate to the character & it has a very silly irony to it. I'm not sure if "irony" is the right word to use but what I mean is that the actual movie character was so extremely dark & scary and this doll is cute & lovable...complete opposites. I don't know, I thought the juxtaposition was humorous. Plus, it's just very well done & the materials look like they are really nice quality. The next items she made are very cool too & for the male readers who are kinda skittish, please check it out anyway. The next photos show a purse that was completed ( both sides ) & the last photo is one she is working on now. The completed one features Christian Bale as Batman with the actress who played Lois Lane on TV's Smallville. Sort of a strange choice but she loves both characters so that's cool. Plus there's kind of a "humor thing" going on there so let's just go with it, it's fun. It's a collage of magazine photos. The back features 2 large photos of Christian Bale & The Dark Knight...very nice! My wife collects purses & would completely flip-out if she saw these, ha ha! The last pic is of a purse about 1/2 way done. This creation features both the Batman & Joker ( Heath Ledger ) and so far looks really cool. Let's hope she sends us a photo of the completed item ( Hint, Hint ). Anyways, sorry to go on forever but this is some great stuff & I love when Bat-Fans get creative so if you're working on any Batman-related projects ( Custom Action Figures, Crafts, Painting, Dolls, Drawing, etc...) then please send them in to us to share. Thanks.
