I dub thee Poof
I'm on a roll. Thank God for
insomnia or i wouldn't get anything
done. I made these thingies i call
"Poofs". They are built similar to
Furbies but minus all the puff and
stuff..lol.
I've been constructing them in 3 hour,
or so, blocks for the last several
days. My first came out kinda scary
but the more i practiced, the better
the result. I had a genius idea to
fill them not only with the stuffing
(Walmart $5) and the tiny bean like
pasta- used to weigh it down at the
base , but with some scent.
Off to Earthfare to purchase lovely lavender and
Walmart for those $.85 packets of scent
(apple & Cinnamon and Rose Petals).
For another touch, i had these pewter
engraved thingies (jewelry making
supplies at Hancock Fabricks attached by a
ribbon. I sewed it all up and viola!
It's an attractive scent thingy perfect
for the car, office, bathroom or where
ever the heck you want to put
it..lol.
The pattern consisted of 3 sides
(equal), a face and base. You can make
it yourself it's so easy (i did on some
left over brown paper bags). Felt was
a wonderful fabric to use since it's
cheap, easy to sew and i had a $hit
load left over from a craft project
from 18 months ago..lol.
I used embroidery thread to do the eyes
and mouth (I have so much thread
leftover from the Christmas Quitlts i
never finished). I think i may
experiment with it. Embroidery is
easier than i thought (third time's a
charm).
