Canstruction LI

Hubby and I went to an interesting display at an local office building on Saturday. It is called CanstructionLI. Yes, I spelled it correctly. All of these sculptures are made with food cans with a few other food items also. You were asked to bring one can per person and use it to vote on your favorite.

 This is Alice in Wonderland



This is Dinner and a Movie Night

 This character was not familiar to me, but it is supposed to be Steve the monkey from "Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs".

This is supposed to represent LEGOS.

Derail Hunger

A supermarket to end hunger.
Lightning McQueen

 Bridge Over Hunger

 Knock out Hunger



 Let's Beat Hunger Like A Drum.
Hunger Heroes.


Melting Away Hunger

 I didn't get the name of this one.
 Helping Hands
This sculpture won all of the awards.

 Once again, I didn't get the name of this one.
I hope that you enjoyed this little picture tour of something somewhat unique.

 Today I am going make a quick trip to the grocery store to pick up my Thanksgiving turkey and some mushrooms so I can make my Beef Barley soup.

 I hope to add a few more stitches to Baker Beach. This is where it is right now.

 I am joining Kathy for some Slow Sunday Stitching. Tomorrow I will join the Stitchery Link Party at Super Mom - No Cape. Pop on over to these sites to see what other bloggers are stitching.

 Thanks for stopping by!

    The photo before the Helping hands looks like an three scoop ice cream sundae to me. Wonderful exhibit...very creative, for a good cause.

    What a great and creative way to help feed those in need! I really enjoyed them. Would have been hard for me to pick a winner. Happy Stitching!

    That looks fantastic! The two you didn't get names of look like a ship, maybe the Titanic and the Game of Thrones throne. :) Very cool ideas. I like the train a lot too. Congrats on Baker Beach looking so far along!
