A whole new batch of puppets...

Twenty two new characters have appeared since my last entry. And one new house for us to live in!
I have a sneak peak of a selection from the new batch you can see on facebook.
Here's the link:

If you can't view them there send me an email: amanda@pangolinpplayhouse.com to browse or order your next puppet. With Christmas just around the corner please think about the children (or adults) who might like a puppet for a gift and get your order in early!

And while staying with mum and dad I finished my Hot Chocolate teddy bear. Just haven't found the perfect neck ribbon for him or embroidered his mouth/muzzle.

PEARCEDALE CRAFT AND FARMERS MARKET

Haven't posted a blog for some time! Things are displaced at present. Including us. No place of our own, makes it difficult to work properly or order your normal life as you normally would. However! I did get to the Pearcedale Market in early July. Was a lovely day and I discovered some delicious market stalls. Even managed a few sales of my own.

Thank you to Jacqui K for taking some pictures of us!

I am currently making a whole lot of little black fluffy dog marionettes and creating some new monsters!
Plan is to be there again for the first Sat of the month in September. Come and visit!

Christmas is Coming!

Well, I have completed my application for the Suzuki Night Market. Its starting in November! The year is flying by as usual. I must remember to send the envelope now, not just take it around with me in the car on all my errands and then leave it at mum and dad's house as I have done currently.

Currently in the process of making 2 new puppets for custom orders. I can post photos when they are done. The colours and eyes etc have been chosen by the children themselves. In fact they have even saved up their own money to buy them! So that is special.
