Easter Goodies

Just finished this cute cat toy order.

It's made with brown felt and in addition to the stuffing, it also has catnip in it. They're so cute when they're all packaged and ready to go.

And yes, I send them in an actual chocolate Easter Bunny candy box. It drives my kids crazy because I make them carefully open their Easter candy so I can have the packaging.

But it's all for a good cause, right?

Spoiled Rotten

This is how he's learned to get his way.....

How could I possibly say no to that face?

Spoiling my pets

I thought I was just going to be spoiling the cats, but that's not how it turned out.

I made some felt catnip toys for them for Valentine's Day.

The first one I made was this red heart. I used scalloping shears to cut it out, stitched around the edges, and stuffed with some polyfil and fresh catnip. The cats loved it!

 

Then I stitched this one from some scrap felt that I had. It also has the polyfil and fresh catnip. And, once again, the cats loved it.

The problem is that the dogs loved them too! The dogs managed to get hold of both of them and got them all slobbery and wet before tearing them up. Who knew dogs love catnip too?!

I need to craft....

We have been so darn busy that there is no time left to craft. OR, if there is time there is certainly no energy.

And for all of you crafty folks out there, you know we need an outlet or we start to go a little stir crazy.

Just look what not having an outlet has caused me to do!!!

I took it out on the dog!!!

It's my daughter's dog and my daughter was less than amused.


But, honestly, the rest of us couldn't quit laughing and it managed to stay on for about a week before it wore off.


If you want to try it yourself I just used an eye liner pencil.

I'm sure I wouldn't have done it at all if my daughter hadn't told my that I 'couldn't' do it. HA!
