Cautious duck
We are just chilling, waiting for the bath to fill. She's a bit nervous about water.

Kitty lamp
Remember yesterday when I wet felted a bunny and stuffed it? I used that technique to make a kitty lamp!
To give it a little bit of rigidity I sprayed him with a watered down PVA.
Obviously I focused on shaping the front a lot more than the back.
And here he is lit up
And, not a new thing I made, but while organising my craft room I found my old Manic Miner curtain from the brothel. I have a stupid under stair cupboard where the shelf stops about a foot before the cupboard does
Doesn't fit perfectly but pretty damn close. It is only temporary, so I can remove it if I come up with a better solution

Felting two ways (baby dragon and bunny)
This little guy is all ready for bed.
Please note: if your dragonling catches a cold, it is important that you separate him or her from their teddy bear, as their sneezes may catch fire. This guy's alright though.
Waiting up for the parents.
Okay, so the above was my usual method of felting, needle felting. Below, is something I made by wet felting. Pay attention to this as it will become relevant tomorrow. You lay wool on either side of a piece of plastic shaped - in this case - like a bunny. Agitating the wool with hot soapy water causes it to felt on both sides, you then remove the plastic and stuff your 2D bunny, to give it shape. Add arms and other embellishments with your trusty needle. This method calls for patience and lots of arm muscles.

Ghibli accents
Little Calcifer plushie
May all your bacon burn!
I realised that due to the light/window placement this corner is permanently in shadows. Perhaps that is why some susuwataris have gathered there.
The one on the right looks sad, perhaps because he has only one candy.

I had a little vial that I was going to throw out, but I caught this little fella so I bottled him up and gave him to a work colleague (I rethought the tiny one on top and removed it.) Also, I made pompoms on the tines of a fork, teeny pompoms!
