Back to Work. . .

. . .Back to reality!
OK, "reality" might be stretching it a bit.

The worktable, having been cleared of any evidence of shenanigans for the Christmas festivities, is once again serving it's true purpose. What's in the works today, you ask? Well, I'll show you-

It's the residents of Wonderland!
 Alice, the Queen of Hearts, a flamingo (for playing croquet, of course), and that naughty Cheshire Cat are all awaiting finishing.

I also just had to share the present I made for The Mr. It's the head of the puppet that'll play him in his next video. I managed to make it look like him too. (Success!)

I made a little hat for him too.

I'll bet not many of you unwrapped a box with your head in it this Christmas.
The kids said it was the perfect gift for a man that's always getting ahead of himself. (haha!)

Now I'm off to the fabric store to find just the right cloth for Alice and the Queen's skirts.
I love my job!

  1. Heehee! I was STARTLED when I saw the head because I thought, "OH, NO! Jo ran out of characters and she's gone and beheaded DYLAN! EEEEEKS!" Really, Jo! That's amazing! I immediately recognized him from his blog photo! GREAT JOB! As for Miss Alice and HER cohorts, I of course, cannot wait to see them completed!
