Perhaps you eagerly peeked in your stocking this year hoping for a brand new toy or two. Nothing beats the excitement of unwrapping a package and finding in it a toy that you know you'll want to play with forever and ever. In reality, "forever" lasts a few months, and by next year you're eagerly peeking in your stocking once again.
Via the wonderful NPR Picture Show blog comes a well-timed story about what to do with some of those abandoned toys. The Legos that have been gathering dust in your closet for years? Perfect for letterpress artists Sam Cox and Justin LaRosa. They've been using Legos to make some wonderful pieces, including The Fox (pictured above). Check out much more of their pixely work at Physical Fiction.
