Quick & Big

So I had two things laying around on my desk for a couple days and then had a "You got your chocolate in my Peanut butter!" moment. I put the two things together for a pretty cool looking large vintage motorcycle-y looking reflector set up.

I started with a Felt Coffee carrier. (sorry bad web sourced pic)

this Cats Eye reflector I pulled off a bike the other day.

A perfect match

If I was going to keep it or do it again I'd use hot glue in the back on the seam but since my girlfriend wants her coffee holder back on her schwinn, tape it was.

It also looked pretty good on the fork arm. no pic

I would keep it asymmetrical with just one reflector if I was going to do it on the bars again. I photochopped a second one on to see and it looked kinda like a Schwinn brand Mosquito.
