Paper Bag Puppets

There sure are a lot of puppets on Flickr. So if you need some inspiration or just want to have some fun, go to http://www.flickr.com and type in puppet or puppetry or finger puppets into their search engine.

Or go to google and click on images and look at all the puppets. Try looking for handpuppet, marionette, fingerpuppet, and so on. Remember paper bag puppets? Those are still good fun for a rainy day. I like old school stuff anyway. I grew up in a family with five kids so we made a lot of paper bag puppets. Our hallway became an impromptu puppet theater and no cardboard box was safe from being turned into a television with puppets dancing inside.

Flickr Puppetry Goodness

If you are on Flickr, you can visit my Tricksy Puppets. I list new things there all the time. I finally gave my puppets their very own "SET".

Finger Puppets

Hug a Puppet

I made a puppet treasury on Etsy just now because I'm in such a puppety mood. It expires in a few days, but the photo will stay on my blog. Or come see it live on Etsy while it's still up: http://www.etsy.com/treasury_list.php?room_id=30929

More puppets I've made

I had to snatch my puppet photos off of my Flickr Account. Sometimes that is easier than finding them on my hard drive.

These represent 3 types of puppets: finger puppets, hand puppets, and big mouth puppets.

Sounds highly suspiciuos to me.

Puppets seem to come and go with alarming regularity in my life. Since you never know what they are thinking they are always tricksy. Gotta keep an eye on them or they'll take over your life.

(The two puppets in the photos have both been sold already. Sorry).
