Owls!

I came up with the idea for these owls just before Valentine's Day. As a Mommy to 5 kids it's is always a challenge to figure out original homemade gift ideas for special days like Valentines and Easter. I try to save money whenever I can on these days. This year I recycled some wool I had been saving for winter hats and turned them into these adorable owls. I didn't get any made in time to sell at Valentines on Etsy but I made 8. 5 for my kids and 3 to donate to our youth group Valentine's Day Banquet auction. The kids loved them, and all 3 sold at the auction. I really, really enjoy making these. Each one is unique and I find that a lot of fun! I've tried to make sure that each owl has his/her own name that starts with an O...this has proved a little challenging. I recently had a blogger ask to review one for me! I am super excited to read her review and will let you know when it is up. I've given her one to give away too!
