SilverCrow Creations Vices - Greed
Close-Up
Day of the Dead Diorama - Behind Bars
More Day of the Dead Figurines
More Day of the Dead Sundries & Specialties
More Greed
This special diorama is created almost like a shrine or nicho, with our Muertos behind glass. You'll find a woman dressed quite scantily along with a gentleman dressed to the nines with a bag of money. And in the corner a naked man who appears to have given up on everything. This hard-luck gang is behind bars and has been busy writing on the walls of the jail cell.
The diorama measures about 4 inches wide and about 3 inches high and 2 inches deep.
All of our Day of the Dead figures and the boxes are made by traditional artisans and are hand sculpted and painted by traditional Mexican artisans. Each is a bit different (and colors may vary slightly) as they are all handmade! Please let SilverCrow choose one for you!

Savin' Up To Quit My Job Tin Bank
Savin' up for Therapy Bank
Admit it. You've had it. You dream of breaking free! Now you have just the bank to prepare for your freedom. Each tin measures 3-1/2 by 4-1/2 inches. This great design is based on the Original Cash Stash™ - old bandage tins and other cans. On the front, a reminder:
I'm savin' up to quit my job!
As well as a threat,
If I get another paper cut, I'll slit my wrists...
The 1-1/4 by 1/16 inch coin slot on the top is labeled:
EVERY COIN YOU DROP IN HERE SHAVES ONE MINUTE OFF THE CLOCK
One one side:
Admit it. You've had it. You dream of breaking free. In your clearer moments, you can still imagine what it would be like to sleep in, wear what you want, and tear your nametag off forever. But first you need a back-up plan. And that plan is to start savin'! Start your Freedom Fund™ now! Pinch stray coins from the desk of your colleagues. Hunt for money between the seats when you carpool home. Whoever said money can't bring happiness was lying. Money is your only ticket out that door.
On the other:
ESCAPE before it's too late! Don't turn into a ZOMBIE!
And a 50s-style fellow on a phone spattered with red ink (or is it blood), saying,
Honey, I'll be home early. I just killed my boss!
There's an tin-capped circle opening on the bottom to remove your coins, unless...oh, well, never mind that.

This great design is based on the Original Cash Stash™ - old bandage tins and other cans. On the front, a reminder:
I'm savin' up for some therapy!
CHANGE IS GOOD
Life is confusing. One minute you understand everything, and the next it feels like it's all blown apart. In these moments, you may want to talk with someone, or just have them sit there and listen. Of course, it's impossible to predict when you'll crack up, but it's best to be prepared. that's why we recommend starting your own Psych Fund™. One coin at a time. It's your future. It's for your best. It's because we care...

Debt Magnet
Lots of us are already debt magnets, but to prove it, you'll love this 2 by 2 inch magnet:
darling! let's get deeply into debt
Anne Taintor's magnets are often tongue-in-cheek funny, but we think this one is just fun and certainly kitschy. The artist combines vintage images and tongue-in-cheek messages in a collage style that seems retro and modern at the same time.

Morgan's Revenge Pirate Doubloon Game
Captain Henry Morgan has packed up his booty in a hardy bag marked with his picture. The replica golden doubloons and silvery pieces of eight are the treasure that the dreidel-like metal spinner will help you win.
This traditional game of chance finds its origins in ancient Roman Army camps and has long been considered the game of bandits and buccaneers. Although young and old alike will enjoy playing together, it has become quite popular as a drinking game.
Your set arrives in a clear-topped storage box and a 16-page booklet documenting the life and times of Cap'n Morgan as well as the instructions for playing the game.
If you don't fancy yourself a gambler, you'll just love the game parts for your assemblage art work!
