No, I haven't taken up smoking, I just wanted to show you my groovy vintage cigarette machine! ;o) I'm sure you may have heard of
Art-O-Mat, the US movement with over 90 converted cigarette vending machines which now vend original works of art. ;o) I totally adore the ethos of the project and have long wanted to do something similar. I bagged this vintage machine on eBay a couple of years ago, it's for packs of ten cigarettes so smaller than the Art-O-Mat version but even so I still think it has potential. It is currently mounted on the wall in my dining room operating as my daughter's Advent calendar. ;o) Unfortunately 24 boxes, divided between the three columns, only just peep above the windows so they aren't now visible. I would love to see the whole machine filled to the brim and delivering artful joy in little boxes. ;o)
See what
Rob and
Ric are blogging about today.
