what to do with a gold kangaroo

The other week i went to a friends new house, and she had a huge pile of "crap" as she called it, bit and bobs left over from the previous owner. i said "HOLD YOUR FIRE" there is probably amazing treasure in there, and kindly she let me rummage to my hearts content.

oh how many lovely treasures there where, old frames, china, plates cups,, and yes oh yes a golden kangaroo!!!!
  • sorry this is not the real kangaroo, silly me i didn't take a photo of it before the creating happened.

this is item number 1 i made!!!!, well after a long think i decided i hated the golden kangaroo in its normal hideous ornament form, so i deiced to smash it up!!!, and with all the small body parts i used it to decorate this lovely baby Jesus. got to say i love it, and if you look closely you can see golden fur, and a golden foot!!!

but when smashing the golden kangaroo, the head came off in one complete piece, so i decided to use it as i couldn't bare smashing dear little face in, I'm not that mean.
then this is what i made from the head and an old Christmas decoration!!!! i love the pink against the gold, super funky.

so i was very happy with the two out comes, both very different, both with the gold element, so that's what you can make from a golden kangaroo.
