Title: My Comic Decoupage Hobby/Side business
Post by: betaraybdw on June 30, 2015, 03:51:35 PM
I have a hobby/side business called Kracalactaka Creations. I decoupage things with comics or as I think of it, I glue comics to stuff so it looks really cool!  Mostly I do Long & Short Boxes so people can "pimp out" their comic storage. But I also do small tables and some other odds and ends.

I have listings on both Etsy ( https://www.etsy.com/shop/KRACALACTAKA/about ) and Ebay ( http://http//myworld.ebay.com/kracalactaka )

And Blogs on Comic Vine & Blogspot

If you want to order something from me you don't have to necessarily go through ebay or etsy, I am sure we could work an accommodation.

Just be careful using print out pages from Marvel or DC they could get upset

As I noted (tongue in cheek) on my blog--40 Uses for a Dead Funny Book--"11. If you have a fancy toybox made out of wood, you might want to try decoupage. Get your parents to show you how. I decorated my toybox this way and it looks really great!" I actually did this when I was a teenager back in the '70s. I cut out lots of images from my comic books--mostly from the house ads and the public service ads--and decoupaged them onto a fancy pine chest/window seat that my parents gave me for my birthday. I decided to use it for my growing comic book collection. Although that measure didn't last long and I requested filing cabinets for the following birthdays and christmases--and filed my comics in folders. The chest was used for other things after that--its funcition has changed over the years. Right now it's holding most of my old games like Monopoly and Masterpiece and other old games and toys. At some point I decided to remove most of the decoupage, although there are some remnants remaining.

Nothing says "AMERICA!" like a a guy in a spangly jumpsuit jumping over cars on a motorcycle through a flaming hoop!
