Vintage Lunchboxes

So, here it is. My secret passion. I've been collecting lunchboxes since i was about... fourteen or fifteen i would guess. I had just started high school. Prior to the vintage boxes, i would grab any random one off the shelf at a Meijer and Peel the sticker off so i could decorate it myself. I still have a few of these hand decorated boxes as well, but these are my pride and joy.

above we have a tiny part of a plastic mario box, pac man plastic from the old cartoon, a delicious popples lunchbox, a metal aladdin pac man box from 1980, then the A-team and another popples box.

In this second pic we have: Teddy Ruxpin, the Care Bear Cousins, My little Pony and The Cabbage Patch kids.

I have so many lined on my kitchen cupboards, some are stacked two deep. I rotate now and again to keep things fresh.

Well so much for going to bed. I couldn't help it, i got excited about my lunchbox blog. So now really, one last cigarette and it's off to snooze a bit before class in the morning. Goodnite internet.

work work work school work work

such a cute desktop, no? damn i desperately need a new computer... half the time when i try to save an illustrator or photoshop document (which could be hours and hours of work) my computer will freeze up and i'll have to force quit stuff and then i loose everything. so yeah... it's time. as soon as i get my college refund i will be purchasing a new computer... i cant seem to force myself to switch to PC though... so i'll probably be spending much more money than i want to.
the art on my desktop is done by Mark Ryden
fun stuff. many times my desktop is a vintage picture of some spanking action... :)
