What’s wrong with this picture?
February 25, 2010
Here they are, three little pink owls, all ready to be assembled into a mobile. Ready to take flight. Almost ready for Mathildas Market. So what’s wrong with this picture? There are ONLY three! I personally suspect that the little terror that is my two year old son has stolen one. When quizzed about this he looked around, shrugged and said that it must have run away. Of course! How could I possibly assume that he would be responsible? I did laugh though.
.
So now I have to go around the whole house and check every nook and cranny for a runaway owl. Now where would a toddler stash an owl? Any ideas?
Hello. My name is Claire. I have a sock toy addiction. It began two years ago when I was pregnant and nesting. At first I dismissed it. I hadn't sewn in years. "Craft Schmaft" I said. Well it seems this crafty thing is here to stay. This blog brings you the delights of making sock softies, fabric finds and crafty inspiration from round the interweb.

What about where he hid your iphone?

That turned up stashed inside a toy in a toy basket in the bike store that we had visited. I’m really hoping that the owl is still in the house!

I assume you have tried the most obvious places: the fridge, toilet, in your sock drawer, at the bottom of the sandpit, etc etcetera? In my experience you will only find him when you have just completed making his replacement. (but I’ll cross my fingers for you regardless).

Perhaps put in a pair of gumboots, or maybe in a tree in the backyard. I am sure it will turn, and as Tania said usually after you finish the other one.

I would check inside the pocket of his favourite bag that is now stashed at the bottom of the toy box…that’s where I usually find my missing treasures!
