What are some examples of glamour bombs?

The best way to find a multitude of examples and ideas is to read the posts in the Glamourbombing community. There are many good projects and actions described by veterans of the glamourbombing scene. However, for the sake of this FAQ, I'll share with you a few good ideas, some culled from the community, as well as from my own experience:

  • Tiny scrolls written in a fine calligraphic hand, with messages suggesting remarkable possibilities, and left where they can be found.
  • Constructing small "fairy houses" out of found natural materials, in parks, on beaches, or in any natural setting where people taking walks might encounter them.
  • Helium balloons with winking LED lights tied to their strings (and possibly little messages), and released on the night of a new moon; perhaps many such balloons, to drift over a neighborhood at night and cause people to come out of their homes and wonder at them.
  • Make plaster casts of the hoof/paw prints of some kind of large exotic or fantastic animal, and attach these to a pair of shoes and run around at night in a place (with soft, moist ground that will hold impressions) where the prints will be seen the next morning.
  • More coming soon!
