A few of you have asked me about the robot on the cover of the new album Robot Junkyard. His name is Boxel, and he stands about 3″ tall, 4″ if you count his antenna, but he’s much taller in his own mind. He doesn’t typically listen to me, especially now that he’s a star. I do believe that he thinks he will be on the big screen in the future. Can you say diva?
Boxel is a prototype paper box robot created by Cincinnati based artist JessWolf. She specializes in handmade decorative paper boxes and custom luminaries that can be used for weddings, parties, favors, decorations, or like in the case of Boxel, hanging out and eating all of the M&M’s. All of her products are handmade and either cute, whimsical, elegant, or in many cases all three. One of the products I especially like (besides the robots!) are paper acorn boxes which are friggin’ awesome.
I highly recommend that you check out her other products, especially if you have an event or party in your future. You can check out her website here:
www.paperacorn.net
Or find her on Etsy at:

When you decide to contact her for some awesome papercraft, or just to say hi, remember to tell her that Boxel sent you.
Thank you Jess for being gracious and allowing me to use your wonderful creation for Robot Junkyard.
Cheers!
Jim
