Little Chickens

Over the holidays we made our own little colourful chicks with pom poms, eyes and scraps of polar fleece.

We whipped these ones up at the last minute for a couple of young friends we were about to visit.

We had to resort to PVA glue as I'd run out of sticks for the glue gun, but I'd strongly recommend stocking up on the glue sticks! The yellow chick was dismembered within a couple of hours but, as far as I know, the pink chick survived. Our chicks have been nesting in cotton wool in yoghurt containers

Dino Fun!

It was a bit of a mission to get the kids to stand still long enough to get some photos of them in their new dinosaur costumes, but I managed to get a few!

Bring on the Sun!

What a great weekend! Collingwood wins the AFL Premiership; cooked breakfast at Mud Bay Cafe with friends; and the sun is FINALLY shining for the first time in four weeks (I'm being generous - think it was really more like six weeks...)!

I also got a chance to finish off more dinosaur tails, so it felt like a productive day. Mr J & Roo have been putting up with the prototypes for too long, so I've made them both a dino tail & hood set each, in their fav colours. They're currently sitting on the couch in costume, watching the Playschool Dinosaurs DVD, but I hope to get some great photos of them running around dressed-up outside in this BEAUTIFUL weather.
The photos are of two others I finished for an order....
