On fire....with projects

It's Funny Friday

by Prudence

Guess what?  I received this bee-u-tee-ful Easter card from Wilbur.  The lilacs are from Mom's garden, they are her most favorite flower followed by Lily-of-The-Valley and Johnny Jump-ups.

The "to do" list is getting shorter.

Good Morning, everybeary.  My teddy bear head is swimming - another room box, yes - we found yet another one packed away after moving.  As it turns out it was a perfect find, Mom couldn't fit one important piece in The Lady's Hat Shop, it is another Cynthia Howe online class, Making A Hat.

So, I came up with making a ladies fashions room and using the piece along with a few mannequins, shopping bags, anything to do with a ladies shopping spree.
The mannequins looked sorta bleak just standing there so I went to work.

  It's tough, having no fingers but I made two bee-u-tee-ful dresses out of scrap fabric from other projects.  Mom was so thrilled when she saw them, so now I am in charge of all fashion designs.
Here it is all finished.

Thank you for dropping in, we always love your visits.

Bunny Buckets

It's Funny Friday

by Prudence

Hi Everybear.  I have been busy working in Mom's craft room again.  Mom bought me a pack of peat pots (you know, the little peat moss pots that you start seeds in) and I made little buckets.  Since it's almost Easter and all our decorations are up I thought up "Bunny Buckets", I have Mom's mini bunny and her hand painted Easter egg in the pots, and little fuzzy chicks that were her Mom's.

Here are the three that I made

 and I have the instructions in The Crafty Corner (although you are all so crafty and smart you don't really need instructions, but I love to type).  Giggle.

"Prudence ?"
"Yes Mom?"
"LuLu and Flora aren't on the 'being punished' shelf."
"Where are they?"
"Maybe they are in the craft room or taking a nap."
"Prudence, do you think I was too harsh with their punishment?"
"Mom, you are the gentlest Mom in the world, no that isn't it."
"What if they ran away?  Oh Prudence, I am so worried."

(Prudence thinking) "When I find those two rug rats I'm gonna send them to the moon - on a one way trip."

Crafting Easter Eggs

It's Funny Friday

by Prudence

This was so much fun.  I asked Mom to help me add a page to my Blog "The Crafty Corner" and we posted pictures and a brief tutorial on making these eggs.

It's easy-peasy but....if you have mohair paws (and we all know that means we are teddy bears) it gets really, I mean REALLY messy.  I had glue all over me, Mom didn't escape either, I had glue on her hair, her nose, even an ear.  We laughed and laughed at how funny we each looked (gosh, I love her so much).

So, hop on over (do the bunny hop, giggle) and see what we made.

"LuLu, look at the pretty eggs Prudence & Mom made."

"I know, but I'm sorta bend out of shape (ouch) 'cause they didn't ask us to join in the fun."

"Yeah, me too, Flora."

"Let's have some fun.....go take some and hide them, I'll do the same thing.  That'll teach them, how dare they punish us."

"No, wait, Flora, I have a better plan.  Ya know the plan next week when we disappear?  Well, listen.....

psst, psst, psst...."

"You mean, we're gonna do that too?"

"Yup"

"WOW"

"Flora, it's George Washington's birthday today."
"Who's dat, LuLu?"
"He was the first President  and who chopped down a cherry tree and couldn't tell a lie that he didn't do it."
"He was a president and owned a landscape business?"
"I give up!"

Shopping at the fabric store

Last Saturday Mom & I went to the Senior/Assisted Living Complex (Heritage Oaks) for an afternoon of displaying our crafts.  We had fun, Mom has been doing this for three years and the people just are so thrilled when people come in with their crafts.

WHAT A WONDERFUL SURPRISE
Thank you, Tee

Creations by Tee sent me these beautiful creations.  I kept opening little parcels and could not believe all the beautiful tags, bookmarks, ornaments, and note pads that Tee creates.  Notice the wee little teddy ornament (o:  I am in awe of your artistic paper crafting. Again, thank you Tee, I just don't know what else to say.
