the opening ceremony of the first Olympins games

REPOSTING-- since we are headed into another summer olympic games, thought i would reprise this picture. was doing a meta-theme of clothespins back in 2012 for the 100 possibilities group and the main 'characters' were pin and peg :)
here is the whole album, which includes the summer games:

although peg and pin could not be in london, they were thrilled to discover that the opening ceremonies (and all of the games) of the Olympins was being televised on WPEG, from start to finish.

scavchal16-- completed project
when the easter dyed pins looked too pale and washed out when standing on the buttons, i hand-colored all five of these;....... and i have the permanent marker marks on my fingers to prove it. ~grin~
time consuming but worth the effort and a lot more creatively satisfying than rescreening :)
