It’s Christmas and no one’s online, so while I have this moment to myself I will sneak these photos of holiday cheer, LACHSA-style. Two of my oldest friends, Lumi and Josh, share a birthday on December tenth and occasionally celebrate together – this was such an occasion.
Birthday hobo.
These birthdays tend to turn into high school reunions and when you are a person who attended an arts high school, reunions are pure illicit merriment. The party was vagrant-themed and there was cake and truffles and wine and amazing shmancy macaroni and cheese, and a huge dining table dedicated to one thing – papercraft!
Crafty guests had an array of paper, glues and vintage scissors at their disposal with which to make holiday decorations for a very speshul Christmas tree. I couldn’t resist the lure of the creative spirit [there was also a bag of truffles on the table] You can see the whole set here, my favorites – below.
Sweet panda butt.
I made this Krampus to make up for the thing behind the jump. You’ll see it in a few seconds.
Its tongue moves in a fashion that makes the laydeez giggle.
Piggy.
Josh-made skull. Once, Josh made me a pair of underpants, which I still wear, with this same skull bleached into them.
Below the jump, an articulated paper penis I made and am extremely proud of.

LOL at the paper penis. I wish I could get away with that at my house.
Is that what everyone meant when they said Santa Claus was coming?
YAY… I like the panda butt and the paper penis. Your paper engineering skills are made of win.
That must be quite the tree to see. Your Krampus came out really good!
Clearly the quality of your penis papercraft will no doubt inspire generations to come.
Merry Christmas!
Oh my god. Amaze. I love it. Is it hanging on le tree?!
Nice to see a Bernie made the tree, too (alongside the harrowed ghoul).
Nice articulated unit you got yourself, there. I like the tongue devil, as well.
Josh’s beard is intense.
looked like it was fun, i’m bummed i couldn’t make it.
Wow! That sounded like it must have been fun! I need crafty friends to come over now ;)
LOL @ the paper penis! Too bad it had to shrink towards the end there, poor little fella ;)
Nothing says Christmas like a functioning paper penis!
Why have I never done this before? I especially love your paper penis. This is a thing which everyone, in an ideal universe, needs to make and own at least once in their life.
Epic penis!
And I’m loving the googley eyes on DickButt.
