Robot Seeking Blanket and Things!

Hey everybody, I hope that this finds you all well.  As you can see I am running late (again) this week.  I have been working on a few things to get them done so I could get other things done so that I can work on a new thing, phew!  Which means I still have a few things that I have to get done before I can work on that new thing!

But before I get to those things lets talk about Robots.  Robots are kinda cool and kinda scary a bit.  I mean you know those robots who want to take over the world.  We don't like those kind of robots.  But the robots who want to vacuum and clean, we love!  Now over at Every Inchie Monday the theme this week is Robot.  So many things that I could have designed!  But for me the thing that I wanted to do was a dancing robot.  Yerp, I said a dancing robot!  With his tongue sticking out!  So here he is.  Doesn't he make you want to dance?  LOL


Also this week over at 2x2x2 the theme is Blanket.  I am a lover of all things blanket related.  I have 3 blankets on my bed right now. I also love hoarding blankets because you never know when you need them.  One winter, over 10 years ago we were struggling as my late husband had cancer and I had to quit working to take care of him.  It was a cold winter and we did not have alot of money so we saved money by turning down the heat and sleeping under tons of blankets.  Those blankets were such a Godsend at that time in our lives.  But for most of us when we are babies we need many a blanket.  I know my kids had tons and tons of receiving blankets, so with that in mind I made a baby holding a blanket.  But, I must warn you, my baby does kinda look a bit creepy lol  it is those eyes!  Just know I warned you!

 
He is an ugly baby, but that red blanket is helping the baby feel better, me too!  lol

Lastly this week, I made a bracelet using some fun new beads called honeycomb beads.  This pattern is called Honeycomb Beezz Bracelet designed by Akke Jonkhof  I really love the geometric look of this.


In this pattern I used 3 colors of Honeycomb beads. Super Duos and "O" beads.  I connected the bracelet with a MagLok Magnetic clasp.  If you follow the links here you can see what they look like.  I am not affiliated with the site, it was actually the first one that came up in the search.  Since I could not remember all the places I got my beads from I just used this store, Artbeads.com.

That is it for this week.  I hope that you all enjoyed my blog this week, and if so please leave a comment, and if you like the idea of inchies and twinchies then fly on over to EIM and 2x2x2 to check out the great artwork and to see the list of words.
