swaps....

Today I've been making top hats and ball and chains! what for I hear you ask? well on uks we are coming up to a cyber crop and the current theme is monopoly! I made accessories for my swap and also Aluns too! The top hat is made from felt and is stuffed so it is firm(ish) and the ball and chain is a polystyrene ball, gesso'd and then painted silver, then I screwed in a curtain hoop thingy and attached a chain to it then made a loop and put around the soft toys left ankle!

The cream bear is for a lady called Dee















The pink bunny is for a lady called Gemma and also has a few tricks if Gemma squeezes its left paw!















I received the chipboard house in the post today too.... looks ok but I thought it would be bigger!

I'm waiting for 6 more things to arrive in the post that various people have told me to expect but I'm still waiting (cue Diana Ross!)
