I must admit a mustachioed man doesn’t do much for me and frankly a woman sporting the equalivent does even less. I just don’t think; attractive. I think; old paint brush with bits of lunch in it.
Maybe, I’m missing something? Laura at AWNTYM – she loves them. Perhaps, it’s one of those negative stereotypes I’ve absorbed and now it is the time for a more positive acceptance of the moustache. The time to bring it back into fashion to make it something for everyone.
In the current climate of spending cuts and economic downturn moustaches could bring the Country together. Create conversation beyond the weather and redundancy. “Nice ‘tache” could be the opener we’ve all been seeking to create new conversation and friendships across the land. But how?
I appreciate some may be cynical and some may wonder if they could carry a moustache off. What if one family showed the United Kingdom the way? Demonstrated that mustachioed works across the generations.
The Walton’s weren’t available. Hence, I have re-created the recent Royal Wedding balcony scene, except each person is sporting a moustache. Nothing over blown, simple modest moustaches. The ‘actual’ Royal Family had commitments on State visits and the such like, so actors were used in this reconstruction but the poses are based on fact, just simply mustachio enhanced. I think it shows a moustache suits, young and old, male and female, rich and richer. See how happy they look.

Very creative, made me smile! Love the credits. 😉
Brilliant!!! 🙂
This is the funniest thing I have seen all morning. I was watching comedy shows before you so the bar was high!!
Very funny, I with you all the way there Gemma. Hate the things all those crumbs and goodness know what else caught up in them, I am screwing my nose up while typing this out yuk !!!
I am loving your picture though, now pass the razor I am taking them off 🙂
Dora looks great with a moustache! I think that should be a permanent feature! x
Oh my lord! you have too much time on your hands!
bloody hilarious thought
Gemma this is hilarious! And just how long did you spend on this little, ahem, ‘project’?
LOL at your balcony scene! I’m with you, not fond of hair lips on humans either.
It has it all: pomp and ceremony, romance and facial hair
I didn’t realise there were so many with ‘staches’! Of course the royals don’t usually have them now do they?!
Perfect!! Have “Hello” Magazine bought the rights?! Thank you for making me giggle this morning! X
Bravo, bravo! SO creative and funny! The credits cracked me up! This is brilliant!
Oh BRAVO! Fantastic, love this…love the description of who’s who…Bob the Builder side by side with Mr and Mrs Middleton etc etc.
Love love love this. xxx
I haven’t entered the gallery this week but I don’t think I could have matched this – pure brilliance and completely bonkers!
Thats brilliant!! x
Fantastic! Brilliant, silly and inspired.
how incredibly innovative! well done x
hehehe!! Very…ahem…creative 🙂
Truly hilarious, obviously you really do have too much time on your hands, or was there some child labour involved?
Ha ha bloody brilliant!! What a clever take on the theme x
Inspired! I think you may be onto something. Quick – ring the Coalition. This could be just the thing they need to reignite the “bromance”.
You eeejit! I LOVE it! xxxx
Brilliant, love it! So “now”! Ha ha ha!
Way cooler than the ACTUAL Royal wedding…… 🙂
love it! Very very clever! Sadly don’t have all these toys lying around to start playing with… Kids have outgrown the duplo… I do have LEGO drinking bottles, though. Might give one of those a moustache! Not a bad idea, these brand new official LEGO bottles, available in many colours from Lunchbox World!
Ha ha! That is excellent!
Paintbrush with bits of lunch in it, brilliant! I can definately justify insisting that The Viking gets waxed now!
That’s brilliant. Royals and moustaches you are really spoiling us! I can’t wait to get back into doing the gallery next week 🙂
I always though the Duchess of Cornwall was likely to have a tache. Now I know for sure 🙂
You are bonkers and this is brilliant!
Very creative and made me chuckle!
Very creative. Made me laugh 🙂
oh you are brilliant. it looks like they’ve all joined the Village People x
Brilliant idea. I found this week very hard!
Hahahaha, that is absolutely brilliant. First I only saw Dora and that made me laugh out loud, then I realised they all had them – HILARIOUS x
Creative indeed but don’t expect your MBE anytime soon lol.
My try is over at https://celebratingmums.wordpress.com
Excellent! Hope you left the moustaches on them?! Poor Postman Pat has aged about 30 years with his one.
Hahahahaha that’s brilliant Gemma. I’m loving your choice of Tigger for Prince Harry 🙂
I love it, have to say Dora stands out the most to me
thank you for all the comments, maybe I have too much time on my hands, maybe I am bonkers, maybe I have an over active imagination. I will say my 3 year old was horrified and pulled all the moustaches off. I am still finding them around the place. I am so happy people liked it (sadly, maybe) I loved putting it together. Wendolene is my fav. Loved this Gallery, and very much enjoyed looking at everyone else’s contribution – as ever, diverse and funny and clever, everything that makes the Gallery great.
