Brian's Bday

Brian has been working on building a vac table in our basement for http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoforming .
For his birthday, I gave him a sign for our basement door that I've been threatening to make for a long time. It's from an Easter decoration with a piece of shimmery scrapbook card stock, which I finagled through my printer. The shiny paper isn't meant to go into a laser printer, so when I decoupaged the thing (in my car no less, since the jerk was home sick from work the day I was planning on doing this) I got a nice aged/weathering effect. Note the bunny shaped hanger at the top.
Along with it is a 'survival kit' of sorts: gloves, bandages and inner-soles for long times on the feet. The Burt's Bees stuff is for his late night post-building hot tubbing (Brian is particularly fond of ginger).
