Silverware Salmon

I finally finished my Silverware Salmon sculpture. I saw one last year when mom was up visiting and have been wanting to make one since then.

A friend and I spent a morning shopping for silverware at the thrift shops in Anchorage. The spoons, forks and knives cost about $7. The six + different types of glue cost over $50.

FYI--If you want to glue stainless steel the best option is industrial strength hot glue.

Now we will see how long it stays together.

This is our living room. I like how the fish looks on the very white fireplace.

I do not know why anyone would ever paint a fireplace white. I spent hours scrubbing the smoke off of it when we first moved in. Now I don't even like to use it as I don't want it to get dirty again.
