It’s a festival hat or a hat for a very important visitor. The very important visitor gets to wear the hat the whole time they are visiting and may sit in the ceremonial chair of wonder when they do so. Less important visitors can look at said hat upon Esme’s head. Everyone gets cake and a kazoo of course.
Too dull eh? Hahahahahaha. Actually, the colours in real life are less neon, deeper, and yes, the sofa cushions look a bit rude, thank you Professor Taboo.
A Pansy. My first as it happens. I don’t particularly like pansies, however, I know someone who likes them a great deal, so here one is. It shall be attached to a scarf, hat, bulldozer or something like that. Pansies have annoyed faces, this one (as pointed out to Esme by a Cloudster pre-post) looks like an old lady with no teeth but a marvellous hair dye job. Once seen cannot be unseen.
Moles! The one on the right was the first attempt, he shall remain upon the Cloud with all the other odd-bods and have a happy long life, well dusted. The one on the left, a second try, looks like the original pattern and shall be sent to someone who loves Moles, and very chuffed they shall be, especially when they know they can take the hat on and off. The fingers and toes are all separate, it just doesn’t look that way on the photos. – looks pleased with herself then downs a bottle of vodka ready for the long winter nights

Love the moles. They look like they’re ready to destroy a garden.

A colorful hat, bright and beauteous to see,
And useful as well, to that sole honoree.
For seeing those kazoos in the hands of her peers,
She’ll thank all the gods that it covers her ears!
The luminous square is so bright, wide, and tall,
Who’d notice the “rude” sofa cushions at all?
I’ve naught against pansies (the blooms or the gays),
So on the “old” face I approvingly gaze.
“Someone who loves moles”, doubtless keen on their fur;
What should we call such an odd fan? A mole-ster?
In brief, thanks for posting your new woolly wares
To nourish your readers’ admiring stares.

Many thanks to my wordy Infidel,
Who of Esme’s wares doth tell;
He’s a man of great taste,
Who cannot be replaced
And tickles her ribs as well!
Thank you kind sir.

That means a great deal from you my dear Mantha. bows Thank you. ❤ Marketing and the ability to sell are my nemesis mind, but by gum I’d much rather be able to create beauty and not sell, than sell other people’s work and be unable to create. So the glass is half full rather than half empty. I’ll have access to a kiln next summer hopefully so shall make a larger house to live in! Hahahahahaha.

Very much so. We’ve planted veggies and I just spent almost and hour mowing out the front. Over an acre takes a lot of mowing, but it’s kind of zen until I get a blister and/or do my back in. 😉

Ah, I loves a bit of craftiness. I wish I could crochet. Have tried, but get confused when it comes to shaping things. Everything ends up looking like mutant coral.
These are all great! I think every household should have a special hat for important visitors. But I particularly like the pansy, because it reminds me of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland ( when the flowers talk to her. I’m not even sure there were any pansies amongst the talking flowers, but for some reason it’s what I think of when I see those flowers). It would look amazing on a bulldozer. I’m picturing an entire bulldozer covered with crocheted flowers. ( or just one really huge one that sits over the bulldozer like a tea-cosy).
Sorry; I appear to still be bombarding you with comments. I’ll leave it there (….for today..)

A bulldozer covered with crocheted pansies, now there’s an image. Crocheted pansies sounds a bit filthy mind you so I’ll not go o,n just leave any passing readers other than you and I looking disconcerted. beams. It does involve construction, yes, and is both intense yet relaxing at the same time. For me it’s concentration and patience that are an issue, I go wild for a pattern, an idea and then solidly do that for months ((not moths, I’m in recovery from fear of moths) lots of wall hangings in the shape of flowers last Christmas for example), yet suddenly I’m off that completely and onto something more tricky, more impossible. I’m after conquering the impossible I am. Quietly, like. Hahahahahaha.

Haha, yep- the term “crocheted pansies’ did get a bit of a juvenile snicker out of me, admitedly. * giggles like a child*
Oh my gosh, I do the same thing ( the ‘solidly doing something for months then suddenly going off it in favour of something more tricky” thing. Mmhhmm. Yes. It must have something to do with being perpetually curious… that’s how I like to see it, anyway. So many interesting things to try and to learn about- so little time!

Yes, my blawg is hard to find; I think if you click the icon in the section where it shows people’s “likes”, then it works, but in the comments section it doesn’t work. It really shits me, because I’ve tried in vain to fix it by changing my settings. Nothing works, so I barely get any traffic now, and this wasn’t the case before. I don’t think I was ever big enough or controversial enough to be shadow-banned, but this case of very little traffic began after I wrote about the Satanic bible. Coincidence? Probably! I don’t know, but people used to at least VISIT and check it out. Now? Barely any views, ever.
In light of that last paragraph, I’m very glad you made it through! It is quality over quantity, after all, so I’m grateful that the few I’m interacting with are at least interesting, intelligent and funny!
