I found this cushion that I made in my first year home economics class in secondary school (which would have made me 12/13 at the time).  I remember the teacher telling me my idea was awful (but I like weird things).  It all worked out in the end, the sixth year students looked at them all and gave prizes to best three...I won a box of chocolates

And so I present to you pizza cushion:



Ah memories, I can't believe I made this 8 or 9 years ago!  It doesn't feel that long!  Anyway thanks for taking the time to check it out

Not really a 'toy' but I think this is the best place for this.  This is my first time posting something I've made on Craftster!  This is a hand puppet I made 2 years ago in college.  He got the name Rex Bateman because he has evil soulless eye-holes and wears a suit!



Detail of his head (ignore my wrist)



And a little surprise inside his briefcase!



There you have him!  He was my first (and last to date) effort at puppet making and I was the only one in the whole class to actually finish!  (Hence the unlined coat, he's art rather than a functional puppet...though he does work!)
