One Handed Creativity

Ever since I broke my hand I have felt that in the cast thing they made me wear there was puppet potential (though my Dad helpfully suggests with my arm up I look like one of those Chinese lucky cats you get).

Anyway Clair was throwing a 4th birthday party with a pirate theme so me and Tom decorated the old arm to look like a parrot (sort of).

I give you Rover. Made from card, tissue paper, scissors, glue and a sharpie. It took 3 hours but given we only had 3 hands between us and Tom had no idea what I was trying to make (I explained but he doesn't have great visualisation) I'd argue that was pretty quick.

The cast came off on Wednesday so I am doing my physio so I can sew again soon.
