BUMBLEBEE EGG
     It's quite amazing what you can do with some fingernail polish, and egg and some add imagination and searching on the internet.  The pieces just kinda fall together.  I rather enjoyed making these and keep coming up with new ideas, a few of them are original.

GRAPEFUL DEAD
     DO NOT tell you could not see this one coming.  I had some fun putting this one together.  I'm particularly proud of the boots.  The guitar was easy.  But the hair, is SO right. 

ALEXANDER THE GRAPE
     There were several lame joke about Alexander the grape among all of the 70' grape joke.  I will not repeat any of them here.  You go look them up.  But this one had to come out, toga and all.


BLUE BIRD OF HAPPINESS
       Anyone else remember 'LAUGH-IN'?  TV show from the 70's  Go look it up on YOUTUBE.  You will find uncomplimentary wishes from the Blue Bird of Happiness.  But this joke got me going into 70's joke and, well, sorry, here comes the grape jokes next
      

PENGUIN EGG
     No, it's not a real penguin egg, unless I get a facsimile, on a non-fertile one from a zoo, I'll never own a real one, but around 2012 I was looking at how other people decorate eggs, and found something like this, and I had to make one.  It's just sharpie on the black, fimo on the feet and bill and of course, googly eyes.  Well that started something.  So all this character # 1  and let me show you my GOOGLY EYE GANG.

GOLDEN GOOSE
     Had the goose egg, had the gold paint, Lynette gave me the base.  Seemed like the logical thing to do.     So I did it.


FELTED EGG
     Why is your first usually your best?  I've tried it a few other time and have just not been happy with the results.  It was a great way to show how felting works and I've done other felting, but, so far, this is the only good egg
