My Creative Space - Sock Owls

Who would have thought socks could be so damn cute! Yes, these little owls are made from little-people-socks.


I've had these four little fellas hanging around in my space for a week or so and they sure have been getting lots of "oohs" and "ahhs" from visitors.


The owls were made using the new and soon to be available Owl Mobile pattern from Craft Schmaft. Claire does magic things with socks - little monsters, dogs, G-rafs. It seems that wearing socks on your feet is soooooo yesterday! Head over to her new shop to have a look, but be ready to ooh and ahh.


And don't forget to fly over to Kootoyoo and say hoot to Kirsty and all the other creative people.

What is it about owls ? They are so darn cute. If I were an old sock, I would be very happy to end up as an adorable owl.

Tammy said...

A week late ... these are so gorgeous! I can't help much with the sleep we kind of developed our own cry it out method by putting a few different things we read together. I had a good book and some pillows and a blanket on the floor in the doorway of the room starting where he could see me and slowly edging to where he could hear me but not see me. It took about a week, I didn't enjoy it but it was worth it in the end. Good luck and hugs.
