New Follow Button and Counter



I just added a FOLLOW button to the right and an apple counter at the very bottom. Wish I'd thought of it before but there is no time like the present.

I just got a bunch of new yarn because Walmart is closing out their craft department at the store in Buena Park at the Red Heart yarn was marked down to $2.00 a skein. It doesn't take much yarn to make a finger puppet. But I use yarn for everything from lap blankets to hats. I'm in no danger of running out of yarn anytime soon.

I want to come up with a handmade way to make puppet eyes so I'm no longer enslaved by the plastic eyes. I've tried felt, embroidery thread, and buttons. But I want something even more unique than that. I'll have to put on my thinking cap.

Two New Finger Puppets by Pigglewiggins

I just listed two new finger puppets in my Etsy shop. One is a rainbow butterfly with purple sequined wings and the other is a funky froggie. They should show up there in my Etsy Mini over on the side.

In honor of my new puppets I'm trying to snag an Etsy treasury called the Best Puppetmakers on Etsy. If I get one I'll let you know. Plenty of inspiration out there in puppetland to keep me busy for years.

Elephant, Butterfly, Frog & other new finger puppets









I spent a few hours today finishing up some finger puppets and listing them in my Etsy shop. I have about 6 more nearly finished. I don't know why I let them sit so long before finishing them. They are a lot of fun to make.

Four friends



I just listed 4 new finger puppets in my Etsy Shop this morning. Work before pleasure eh? I hope someone likes them as much as I do. I think I like the frog the best. I wonder why I made 3 birds instead of 3 frogs. Maybe I think of birds being in flocks and frogs being alone. Who can figure out the artistic mind?
