Meet Charlie the Baby Panda. He is our unofficial groundskeeper here at Jo’s Home, and we’re mighty appreciative! Charlie has a gentle touch and loving nature. Sometimes you can even catch him singing to his pretty peonies or telling bedtime stories to his lotus flowers.

A while ago, Charlie tried to teach me how to garden, but his efforts were futile — there was no chance of saving plants under my care. The peonies began to wilt in fear as I approached, and the lotus flowers would close up quickly and submerge themselves under water! One day, just when I started to think that all plants hated me, Charlie surprised me with a gift! He and his purple panda friend, Suzie, crocheted a lucky bamboo plant for me!!! He told me that it will never require any watering, pruning, or fertilizing. That’s my kind of plant! Haha :) I can’t decide if the pandas crocheted this plant for me because they love me… or because they didn’t want me killing any more of their flowers. In any case, I love the gift, and it now sits proudly on my window sill!

Find my new crochet patterns on Craftsy, and come win FREE tiny pandas on Facebook!  See you there!

Here’s a closeup of my piggy’s accessories! Everything is handmade except for the silver cookie cutters. I did an okay job for my first time working with polymer clay, right? :P

The bowl, rolling pin, spoon, and measuring cup are made out of clay. After baking, I painted them with sealant and then with layers of acrylic paint. A nice coat of clear nail polish makes them all shiny and sleek! :) I had lots of fun, and I’m now back to working on my amigurumi panda pattern! See you soon.

amorningcupofjo:

Anyone else awake??? What are you up to? :D
