I like moustaches. My dad’s had one my entire life. My older brother has one (in fact, I interviewed him about his handlebars here). And they’re all the rage in indy art right now.
Case in point: world’s biggest moustache pillow in the Fuzzy Ink booth at the Renegade Craft Fair.
So when I came across The Count of Luxembourg it was love at first sight. A moustache AND a sword?! For a dollar?? Even the husband agreed he should come home with us.
I propped him on a nightstand until I found a proper home, which required some work.
If found these plastic lattice panels at Goodwill for $6.99.
A coat of teal spray paint, and they were worthy of The Count’s company.
I present you…
…the latest addition to our remodeled half-bath.
The Count and his royal plastic lattice, perfectly situated for all our guests to esteem… from the toilet.
We think he looks great anywhere.

You’re so funny! I love this post – I want a Count of my own!
He’s pretty dashing, isn’t he?
Ooo, me likey! Very nice! What a cute count. And his colors go so well with the decor.
After a failed painting attempt yesterday, I had a stroke of inspiration… The Count has been living in the guest room for a month. I don’t know why I didn’t think of this sooner!
great idea ! and congrats on the feature!
