Earlier this month we had a visit from a very talented Dominic Barnes. Dominic came to us looking specifically for some old cigar boxes and tins for what turned out to be rather an unusual project. When we asked if they were for cigars we received an answer that was certainly not expected!
As it happens Dominic has great skill is transforming these cigar boxes and old tins in to some very quirky musical instruments! More specifically into guitars and Canjos! Above you can see the finished result of the old cocktail tin purchased from us here at the Hungerford Arcade.
Here are some more examples or recent transformations but you can also see more of Dominic’s fabulous designs on his Instagram: @dbscbgs.
Dominic is also going to be at the Retro Festival in August this year with a stall full of his musical wonders. He will be there along side our very own Chula Bishop (Unit 22) with all her beautiful retro clothing and much more from @beatnixvintage! Be sure to go a long and take a look at all there is offer!
