Since this is being built next door to the local airport, I had assumed it was another private hangar but this is the largest door so I would have lost that bet.

Some little friends of mine have decided to enter the World Kitty-Stacking Championships next month and thought they needed to get some practice in before the big event. Four isn’t bad, but can they make it five?

Bella's entire stash of toys fits in this antique box. I worked very hard to downsize before we moved...and it's paid off. We have only kept the classics/favorites.

 

Teddy bear

2 dolls

Wooden blocks

Wooden cutting fruit

5 Playsilks (stored in her backpack)

Nesting blocks

Iron

Teacup set

Musical instruments

Jaffa mud cake with orange infused ganache. The idea for the carpet from Cupcakes By design :) Hand modeled figures

Some of these cute guys are things that I've held onto since childhood....others are things that I couldn't resist from flea markets, garage sales, etc. The toybox was my husband's when he was a child. His mom made it from an uncle's old footlocker. :)

Out With The Old

 

The theme for this week’s Toybox 52 project is Out With The Old. Five of the Kens decided to make the point for me. Jailhouse Ken (as usual) made his opinion very clear! More info. Ref: D1097_01

Domo Choir

 

The Domos got very excited the other day when there was a parcel delivered for them. They would not let me see what was inside until this evening, when a dozen of them stepped up to sing a few carols. Oh, the noise! And I'm not sure they quite got their hat sizes correct when placing their order...

I made this for one of my oldest friend. His little princess was turning 1 and so we decided on a toy box full of her favourite toys. Loved making this one :) So much fun

"Toybox trays for auto trips--$2. You buy as many plastic dishpans as you have kids, make tops for the pans from pieces of plastic-surfaced hardboard, and therre you are!"
