Lazy Sunday Project: The Mecha-Turban

This past week has been pretty intense with quite a few architectural reports, so let's have a rest today with a creative project, the mecha-turban.

Inspired by Rosie the Riveter, Schiaparelli's Surrealism and recycling, it consists in a scarf turned into a turban and incorporating an old spanner covered in blue glitter.

You can obviously use any kind of abandoned tool you find lying around, but beware of their weight (this is a small spanner after all…), and always remember to secure the glitter in place with some special glue and transparent varnish (you may have to leave it to dry for 24 hours). Enjoy!
