mouse hands admired ....

i am a fursuit maker, a nice way to follow that lobster costume from last summer - was that last summer already?
it may bring me new admirers, and more work, but at the moment the costume looms like an enormouse challenge, with the customer a million miles away and not availablt for measuring ...

mind you my friend jon fitted the gloves on this week and he has really big hands ... his girlfriend adele wants to come and try on the suit, just for fun ...as she is much taller than me it might alwso help me with the work !!!

Bid4bears challenge win, and a charity bunny ... bid now !

ok, just to digress from the rest of the exhibition, i had good news the other week when i won a 'survival challenge' competition on bid4bears ... this means i have a whole years free listing on the site and so bid4bears will remain my main shop untill the end of my grand prize ....

to celebrate my good fortune i created a last minute entry for the lemonade bears benefit, this wee rabbit
made from real fur, and have just listed it under the official means so that all the money for the bunny goes to fight childhood cancer ...

she starts at a poxy £5 so go along and make a bid, also, enjoy some of the other artist bears in the charity auction which will be around for the next 3 days ... THANK YOU

flowers and more flowers ....

sorry i have negleted you for a bit dear readers/fans/stalkers ....

i have been pretty poorly, but steve bought me a huge bunch of flowers which have looked good for a week in my dining room :-)

the girls have learned how to climb up onthe garden bench - another thing to give daddy a heart attack with, esp if they stand up on there !!!

windfall apples make great toys too, although they dont bounce too well ....

i am making some thing very small with 'real fur', and have been chasing up some things for an exhibition i need to set up on monday ... now why did i have that silly idea? booked it ages ago and hardly have the energy for it now :-) i'll share it with you tho ....
