More making













Here's a fun site for kid's project ideas that I came across recently. Ethan's buddy Grant is sleeping over tonight and I'm hoping we can try making the juggling balls above. I've made something similar before and they are fun and easy. I just won't tell them they are for juggling.

Also, I finished this bunny from Toy Knits by Debbie Bliss a few days ago. I'm not too great with the embroidery on the face--looks a little like Snoopy to me.
But, otherwise I'm pretty happy with it. I ended up giving it to Ethan's teacher...such a practical gift. I glued a little apple to its arm to give it a teacherish touch.

Here's the Red Baron flying his Sopwith Camel...wearing a pink sweater with little pearl buttons...and What's THIS? An apple glued to his arm?

J--haven't seen the family fun issue but probably they are the same thing.

How was the sleepover? Did they like the balls?

Happy Birthday, Keith!

K--they did seem to enjoy the balloon balls and played with them a lot after making them.
