monstrosity.

ain't he cute? =) well.. sort of. don't ask me WHY i liked him. i'm a sucker for multi-colored beings. heh heh..

ok.. what about his brother?

well..whatever! you can see their WHOLE family here!

to say the least, i definitely found them interesting.. and FULL of character. :D

wallet #2

j-boy #3 is cute..

and funny.

he just wanted a wallet. he could care less about how his monster looked.. i think his thoughts went sumthin' like, "mommy, u know what it's supposed to look like, right?"

let's just say, his monster is slightly embellished.. heh heh..

there's fire coming out of his mouth, but it's not supposed to be like that on his wallet..

i felt that he needed some accessories.. sO, i hooked him up with a military-style vest.. =)

i confess.. my craftsmanship is lacking. i needed to get these done quickly.. tomorrow we go out on the town.. with lots of cool cash.. the j-boys will be needing their wallets.

;-)

wallet #1

my hunny & i have been giving chores to the kiddos so that they can earn their own money.. learn how to save.. AND learn how to give.

well.. now that they're rollin' in the dough, they've decided to take some of that cool cash with them on their outings for some goodies..

my hunny allows this. on ONE condition..

that i make wallets pronto.

sO.. without further adieu, here's wallet #1..

handmade with love.. and a little of his own personal touch..

my 2nd j-boy. (cuz i have three of 'em... j-boys, i mean)

he wanted a monster on the front, cuz monsters are cool...

i used an old pair of denim and a few old worn out shirts for the outside.. you can't see from the pic, but his tail wraps around to the back of the wallet. =)

some old pjs for the interior..

yay! :D

nuthin' like completin' a fun project.. *sigh*

crafts for kids!

another fun one to do with the special little people in your lives.. my daughter LOVES "sewing".. at least what she knows of the craft.. she's seven. she made a cube once.. and i'm proud of her..

and she's proud of her cube! =)

anyway.. maybe you'll wanna try this one with your kids.. sO many crafts so little time..

*sigh*
