as a crafter/artist/diy'er,
have you ever made something that was intended for someone else and after it was done, you wanted to keep it?
well, it's not that you don't wanna give it, it's that you wanna have one too!
like if i were michaelangelo,
laying all day on my back upside down painting this ceiling of miracles, i would wanna keep the painting.
i wonder if he painted his kitchen ceiling like with eggs and bacon or something.
now that would be something to see.
.....?.....
anywho,
such is the case for me, when i made these:
my job for our big family easter sunday dinner is to make desserts.
but desserts aren't happening just yet as today is only tuesday and i don't wanna serve molded desserts on sunday if i were to make them now.
so i made these spoons instead.
like this:
i think they are funny and cute at the same time.
i would never ever in my lifetime think a spoon was funny and cute.
but these, i think, are.
see what i mean?
so if i decide to keep these instead of using them for the desserts on easter, i can do fun things with them.
like, make cool designs with them.
or take this picture for instance:
hey ya got any green bunnies?
no..go fish bunny.
or even better yet,
have a little dance with them.
but heeeey! wait a minute!
i just figured out how to give them away without actually giving them away.
i am going to make desserts today so that they get molded to no fault of my own, take them to easter sunday dinner with the spoons, and tell everyone to eat up!
it'll be an easter/april fool's day treat!
do you think that will work?
hehe
