Fun 365 theme

[Carlita Edwardo]

Adjust to suit your own bent using any toy or item you want.

With thanks to newbie @danboard I did one google and got this project.

I've seen this cardboard here a few times and wondered 'who', 'what' etc. et al..

If you wondered too, wonder no longer ...

Now thinking which icon to manipulate for the remainder of my stay here ... MDH, son, daughter or other?

I love danboard! I've seen a lot of people take very creative pictures with the cute little thing...I'd love to see some other toys being used in way like that. Great theme idea.

Fun idea Carlita.... @misschuff .... wonder why I just had a weird, primary school flash back to 'Flat Stanley'!!! :)

Okay, creative cap on .....

[Slava]

These are so cool!!! Love the photos!

These are so fun! I did a similar thing (not famous, of course) with a doll that my son has had since he was a baby...the doll just sits around on a shelf now, so I brought him back to life by photographing him doing silly things at the house. The photos are WAY over processed, but I was experimenting, so bear with me. :)

You can check it out on my blog if you're so inclined - -

I plan to do another like this and process the photos differently now that I know more about what I'm doing with this DSLR :)

@sdpace These are cute....what a good idea! I had never heard of danboard before....hmmm..

[Sue]

such a cool idea, tho I suppose you could use any toy you wanted....hmmmm

[Daniel Raymond Paul]

i know http://365project.org/charles/365 has been doing that with toadstool for a while

[Carlita Edwardo]

@dan_paul great thanks ...

Anyone know of others who have been doing something similar - sharing the love and looking for inspirational peeps here.

[Alaric]

I wish I had Danboard. I collect toys and I'm sure they'll eventually find their way into my 365. Not the same one each time though.

hehehe that is SO cute :)) i had to wait until i got home to view it :( as that site was blocked at work ... groan, but it was so worth the wait, thanks for sharing :))

[Carlita Edwardo]

@taidster you're welcome! he is cute and now I know so much more I'm sure he'll pop up everywhere!

[Erin]

Love those photos !! such a great idea,

[Sayruh]

Wow! What a super cool idea.

[Bec McQueen]

@misschuff thanks for posting the link.. So creative, I love it!

[Carlita Edwardo]

@mamaisaac you're welcome!

[hairul azhar]

great idea... nice shot..

[Kerry Marsden]

I'm doing this with a duck.. it's a lot harder than the Danbos because rubber ducks have no moving parts, so you can't manipulate them at all for the photo.. but Danbo is cuter!

Those photos are really good and some very clever ideas in there :)

[Sarah Lauren]

Awesome! I want to try this.

[Beth Baird]

I think Danbo is so cute :) I have seen people use Lego's, Barbie, and even Artist Poseable Mannequin in artistic ways. Iv also seen people on this site use paper clips in cool ways http://365project.org/carajill/365/2011-09-22 They reminded me of a site I had found back in 2010 using nails http://www.designswan.com/archives/the-story-of-nail-art.html
so the sky is the limit when it comes to things like this the trick is making the person viewing the photo feel what the character feels!
