Bug Love

My parents had at least two VWs - a bug and a Karmann Ghia. Back in those days, they were SUCH reliable, easy to work on cars, not to mention freaking adorable!

I wasn't around when they had the bug, but word on the parental street was that somehow my brother got ahold of a pen when he was a toddler and drew VW bugs all over the sheets of his crib!

If he ever goes to prison, there are going to be issues, I can guarantee you that. No one knows how he finagled that pen in there. 

So tonight I bring you a bug! I'll put a little video over on Instagram so you can see how shiny the silver parts are, but since this classic bug stamp is, well, classic - I painted it like it was a bit rusty with watercolor. 

The sentiment and the flower power stamps are from the same set. So cute. So much nostalgia.


What funny stories do you have like my brother's? Let me know in the comments!

Loveyameanitbye.

    My first car was a bug, Algernon! Poor college student in Tacoma (home was Hawaii), I bought a powder blue bug with a smashed hood (replaced it with a red hood from the junk yard). My next car was a red Karmann Ghia!
