Mice
Here are a few more mice...
Silversmithed: jewelry and tatting shuttles............ Glass blowing: crochet hooks, dinosaurs, ice sickles, pens, earrings, and spoons.......... Tatting: jewelry, motifs, doilies, hankies, books, crosses, and much more.
Cards
I just loooove mice and ratties. Here are a couple of blank cards to hand out. I'm keeping the top one with the sailboat. I need to frame that one.
Heart
I found this adorable heart purse, with a bee clasp. The inside has a double-sided mirror. There is enough room for my chapstick and a little gambling money.
Diane
I was inspired by Diane's new 2025/6 Christmas ornament, that I had to order some Starlit mint buttons. I realized I order the smaller ones, after I started tatting her pattern on a 1/2" button. I ended up making a similar one.
Order
I had a special duck order for a person on our ship. Her and her best friend was celebrating their 25th friendship anniversary. She wanted to commemorate their trip with a "Cruising Duck." She wanted colors in blues and teals so I make up a few ducks for her to choose from.
Ducks
Here are the ducks I brought home. I re-hid more. Some of the ducks are from a duck exchange between rooms, some from the mailbox and some I found throughout the ship. I'll re-hide some of the larger ducks on other cruises.
Painting
Someone traded out a pencil drawing of a duck. This was very precious and gave me an idea. I ran out of ducks to exchange for the mailbox and decided to make a few cartoon ducks with my watercolor. They were a hit. People were trading fairly and loved the little paintings.
