We've posted here before about Marti Jonjak's great column this week on recycled-stuff designer Adrienne Antonson, but today in our inboxes we come to find this:

Ripley's Believe It or Not! Acquires Unbelievable Bug Sculptures Made from Human Hair

And wouldn't you know: They're by Antonson. Look out for them next time you're dragged into the culturally offensive tourist trapmuseum in Times Square or other locations.

While you're at it, please introduce yourself to The Granddaddy of Seattle Bug Artists.
