The following
first four photos
depict how my day transpired.
It all started in the bathroom...
where I very soon,
began to feel
a bit like
Edward Scissorhands.
Poodles
were the only thing
on my mind.
The kind that are beautifully clipped and groomed to resemble some sort of walking topiary shrub.
So I started
shaping, cutting, trimming, snipping...
snip...snip...snip
Believe me when I tell you
that it was
HARD work.
But the desired result
was achieved
eventually.
So, now for what
really happened...
For the past few weeks,
I have been cutting and sewing,
and stuffing...
to enable me to get to this stage
of the
process.
See the bandaid
on my blister...
I wasn't kidding
about it
being hard work.
This job
takes many hours
and
creates
a big mess!!
After a well earned break
to stretch my legs
and
clean up the mess...
it is back to the
grindstone once more,
with a change of colour,
to keep
it interesting.
The pompoms
start out
quite lumpy and bumpy,
and require much
snipping
and shaping
to make them look chic.
Yay... FINALLY
this job is finished!!!
All that remains now is for me to attach the tiny bows,
and ribbon for hanging.
Ta Dah!
So that is what I did today.
Anyway...how did you spend your day???
