And check out tomorrow's She Who Sews bloggers:
Now I had a pretty good idea that I wanted to make some fatty sort of animal figure for my door stop, but I just didn't know what I wanted. When I googled "door stop" a lot of random pictures showed up, one of them being a block of cheese. That elicited a reaction from me (uncontrollable giggling) so I knew I had to make one, and then the night before last, true inspiration struck! And so I give you...
Cheddar the Mouse! ...and his blocks of cheese :)
close up so you can see his whiskers (hubby's brilliant idea)
sneaky sneaky
The blocks of cheese are made of bass wood, then drilled with different sized drilled bits. And I only had to have help getting the chuck to let go of the bit when I first started drilling!
I hadn't realized until now, but I've been in a mousy kinda mood with crafty things lately, here's an example, some pics from Christmas:
does he look surprised or is it just me?
Mom, me, and Grandma Kathy assembly-line-making Christmas mice
Colonel Cherry giving orders to his mouse army; really, they seem rather shocked with what he's saying hahaha
I had a really fun time bringing my ideas into being, and I appreciate you visiting my blog today. And now for the GIVEAWAY! To enter, leave me a nice little comment about what your most inspired project has been in the last couple months, and what the inspiration was, I just love to hear what inspires people. For example, mine is the small hearts wall hanging I talk about in the post below, and I was completely inspired by the colors of the collection. (And please remember to leave an email address if you are a no-reply blogger.)
Your potential prize is a couple of very Spring-like patterns from Planted Seed Designs! Thank you again Gerri Robinson for your awesomeness!
THIS DRAWING IS NOW CLOSED, CONGRATULATIONS JANARAMA!
Feel free to visit again soon, I love chatting about my projects and sharing them with you all.
Thank you for stopping by, and have a wonderful time hopping around!
