Spudnik: The Steampunk Mr. Potato Head by designer Sarah Calvillo. Here’s a quote from Calvillo about her inspiration for the project:
“Spudnik…was inspired by a craft swap project. Designers and crafters alike randomly were paired with a different theme and a material. My theme was “steampunk” and my material was “old toy.” Every project was open for interpretation. I went to the Chelsea Flea Market in Manhattan to find some vintage toys. There were so many to choose from, but I soon realized that picking up an already aged and gritty toy would take the fun out of making something look steampunk. This is how I arrived at Target with a Mr. Potato Head in my hand.”
Check out some process shots of Spudnik’s creation here. More photos, a wanted poster, and a construction guide are included after the jump.
