the other day christine asked me if i knew of a good softie maker. of course i mentioned that wendy made some of my favorite softies. i also like thelma's ... and gracia + louise sent me a few adorable birdies too [can't find any of them on their website. too bad for you].
the little sock monkey above came to my little the other day. it's ADORABLE. and it's made by volunteers for fresh art - an organization in NYC that supports artists with special needs. good good cause. you can buy a sock monkey for yourself or a little you know.
i made a little bear for a little girl who is turning one tomorrow. my little's first park hawaian bbq birthday party! should be fun. sunscreen - check, hat - check, long nap beforehand - hopefully!
her invitation was hot pink, so i'm hoping this was a safe color choice. i had to hide it from the little who immediately wanted to put it in her mouth.

and the luscious images??
remember when i was reading The Elegance of the Hedgehog
? [one of the best books i've read in awhile BTW] well... muriel barbery's husband takes GORGEOUS photos. see here the ones from japan . ok.... gotta get some laundry started while the little is still napping. have a great weekend everyone!
Aww and double aww, enjoy the bbq!
i also got a beautiful birdie from gracia + louise named walter that my little girl carries to bed every night. She says it makes the nightmares go away :)

You are a sweetheart... thanks ever so for the mention of our wee owls, and my Mum's 'Thelma's' that never cease to make me smile.
