    I made Penguins!

    My niece, Emma, is obsessed with Penguins..or Pingus as she calls them. She turns five in a couple weeks. I already sent her a penguin stuffed toy, but last night I decided to try making her a penguin bead. After the first one worked, I had such fun that I couldn't stop!

    I made a whole Pingu family!

    The Daddy Pingu

    This one is my favorite, the Momma Pingu.

    Emma's gonna love them! I think I'll turn a couple into zipper pulls and a necklace and leave the others for her to decide what to make with them.

    That is awesome, way too cool. Are they made out of clay? You did a wonderful job - I love your artistic projects!

    No, they are glass.

    Adorable! But, please tell me she knows that penguins don't live in the Arctic.

    (If she knows this, at 5 yrs old, she's already smarter than most people.)
    Ask your vet about microchipping. ~ It could have saved Kuhio's life.

    LOL, she knows they don't live near Santa! That's about as far as she's got with that so far! She knows all kinds of random pengiun facts, but I don't think she can pronounce Antarctica yet!

    OH my goodness, those are too cute! I wish I had a talent like that.
    My favorite one is the momma penguin too.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!
