The question of being a socks doll

Some of the birds flew away and some are yet here, spending time with Gal and me. I decided to create new bunch of creatures.
It is always a long process, while the creatures get some time to wonder who they are, what the hell they are doing on this world and what the meaning of their life.

Sometimes they are lucky enough to have some advice from experienced ones.

Socks dolls work shop

This rabbit went away a while ago, some guy, a friend of friends of mine who was looking for a present to his girlfriend bought it short while after it was completed, I was glad he had no money and had to leave the rabbit few extra minutes while he went to the ATM machine. That time I could snatch few photos of it.

It seemed like I already used all other socks creatures on my workshops invitations, so I was glad to find these photos of the rabbit to the invitation of the next workshop this Friday (more details here).

The flock

The flock of birds grew up, I was so busy making each of them (and some other slippers and shoes, Christmas Etsy orders and so) so I got to take a look at all of them together only few days ago. I was so surprised to see that there are so many of them already, like a real flock

LOL.

I gathered all of them for the reason that two of the birds were about flying away.

The bookish bird wanted to quote some journey blessings from his book.

They all were fascinated by it.

Me and the birds

This week I made some new birds brooches. It is a great fun to create these tiny stuff, they turn out so tiny and cute. But when I am doing them for long hours, and making them does require long hours, I feel that my eyes bit hurt after concentrating so long on such tiny details.
Taking their photos is not ease too, sometimes it takes more then one hour till I get photos good enough for the etsy store, flickr and this blog.
I think that I need some break now, I am going to start some new project this week.
The birds are going to have some time off too.

They already like it, earlier today they spent such a nice and sunny afternoon on our balcony.

Now you can see me, this photo by my dearest friend Adi Yochalis featured at the Etsy storque article about Israeli sellers, you can check it out here.

Nest brooch

Two birds are sitting in their cozy nest. They like it, staying in together.

They can sit back to back, side to side, side to back and so on...

There are crochet threads attaching the birds to the nest and keeping them inside but allow some freedom of movement too.

They wouldn't fly far away anyway, they like it so much inside.
You can check out this nest brooch at my etsy store.

Crafting birds

New birds are going to join the flock soon.

They are multiplying on the coffee table.

The arctic birds were so curious about this phenomenon.
