Button Eyed Mermaid Bunny

Ok... I am horrible :D

I did not get Button eyed Bunnies Siblings completed today. Though I did get all the crocheting on them done !!

I had a horrible headache. I get them occasionally but today's was triggered by a candle that fell off the mantel and melted onto my wood stove. My husband cleaned up as much as he could get but it had melted into every nook and cranny.

Don't get me wrong I LOVE candles but 13 hours of very strong paraffin .... I have a deep respect to all those Candle makers out there.

SO.... Instead I made this little girl. I will get better pictures tomorrow and post them . I love the concept of a mermaid with a belly button. I makes them so magically. Those of us practical think people who think..... HMMM how are they born ?? I do think a smaller button next time though ...

Guppies give live birth so I think these MerRabbits are very Prolific :D

Soon to come the Button eye Bunch

SOON !! Today I hope to finish this girls siblings.... I tend to want to crochet and finishing is hard to get to... I often have to force myself to work on finishing. I tell myself you can get a Soda when you've sewn all the bodies together. LOL...

BUT this project is different... very different... I actually find myself saying I want to get this done and then I will go get a shower.

Button Eye Bunny is a very simple design but I think that gives her, her character. I find it is so endearing. What do you think ?

SPRING SPECIAL :D Mention you follow my blog and get Free shipping on any of my Etsy Shop items. Great way to try out one of my Wildly Popular Crochet Kits !!

Finally !! I have got some pictures of Button eye Bunny Done :D

Though I did not get my photo area clean.

I had my husband build me a table top photo table. I am not really happy with the shadows in the shot but I think with an independent flash It should improve.

I am working on a video and Pdf formatted Pattern for this little girl.

If you are interested please feel free to Post a comment and I will let you know when the pattern is available.

Meanwhile this Sweet little girl and some friends will be available in my Etsy shop. Link is to your right :D

I Know not THE Button eyed doll.... But I found these cute little Tins today and Just had to make something. She is SO Cute :D

I will get more shots of her tomorrow. When I actually get the photo studio area cleaned.

Kids have the day off from school and I have a few chores to get done. I have to call the Pear Orchard about the trees they are taking out. My husband Greg does Lathe work and Fruit wood is always wonderful for tureen work.

I will also take advantage of the day and get the cold frames started.... I know Lettuce and Spinach in 2 of them but.... I don't know about the third maybe a succession of Green onions and Cilantro that way I will always have them for Fried rice right there at hand.

I also would really like to get to organizing my finishing cart... hmmmm....

It's Tuesday???? I think ????

I just Realized that Tuesday... Wednesday and Thursdays always get me confused :P

I think those that go to a nine to five job may understand this better than I do.... But my life is simpler to some extinct much more confusing. ESPECIALLY since I am a very flighty person :D

Some of us have wings for different reasons.... Mine are for chasing my fancys LOL....

I did get a few things on my list done

My desk is CLEAN !!

NEW improved Webpage did get loaded though there are many unfinished areas. If you are so inclined go check it out.

I REALLY want to make another Felted Face Rabbit !!!

and Squid with one eye needs Tentacles

My Montera for today is my favorite line from Coraline said by her other houses toy Squid

"I want to Hug your Face "

It just makes me happy :D

What to write on your blog ?

There seems to be a few ways to approach this. You can make a to do list, a what I've accomplished, What wonders I've discovered on the internet.....

I don't think any of these really fits me..... SO I've decided that my blog will be the Daily ramblings of the Crazy Crocheting girl.

Today I will be revisiting one of my favorite pieces. This is Bok Choy not only do I LOVE the name for this little chocolate rabbit but his little jungle bell Lettuce toy just intrigues me.

Bok Choys face is needle felted and he stands just about 3.5 inches his feet and arms are wired for great possibility..... Down to his whiskers just a fun Amigurumi.....

I think I will make another soon...........

Todays to do list includes finishing the button eye doll... She need a foot and her eyes sewn on. Complete and upload Demontrative new improved website.
Clean my desk.... YUCK.... But I can barely find the Keyboard LOL
hmmmmm.... Maybe time to make a Rabbit :D

Hmmmmm.... What do you think ?

I know I am suppose to be confident and assured with my Blog but truth is I have NO CLUE what I am doing.....

What I do know is when I crochet I feel right at home.... Even on new items I rarely have to rip out unless it is a porportion issue.... I do need to start writing instructions down for myself at least. Since sometimes it is difficult to revisit a design by reading the stitches from a picture LOL....

I also know I have things I need to improve on BLOGS Being one..... Actually completeing a design from beginning to end..... The new kits are on the back burner while I finish a Button eyed Doll.... YES.... we went and watched Coraline at the theaters... OF COURSE.... I rushed home to make my own version....

she is nearly done..... she needs one Yellow Wellied covered foot and 1/2 her hair done. Then her face and last her button eyes.

I think I will offer a Custom Self Button Eye Doll on my website.... you know email me a picture and I will make a doll in yours or your loved ones image....What do you guys think ??
