    Ooh that Monkey is just scary. That face would give kids nightmares! I used to have bad dreams about the flying monkeys in the Wizard of Oz. Looks like it could start again….

    My mum actually owns the book those scary patterns come from. I do remember coveting the rabbit as a very small child however….

    Seriously bad craft, I love the old lady in bed, with her crafty Christmas tree, scarey stuff indeed! This would be a great flicker group?

    I love your blog, nothing makes me wish I lived in Melbourne MORE than your blog/shop!! Can’t wait to come down and visit.

    I don’t know which is scarier, the monkey or the rabbit… I actually have a toilet roll cover quite similar to the mixmaster one. (Thanks Nan.)

    Urgh..I shudder…
    That’s the sort of craft that gives us all a bad name.

    Oh gosh I have a book with cereal art pictures and I love the women who make things from their dryer fluff.

    Oh my gosh I love the over the top cat lady. She just needs a hoard of actual cats to make the photo complete!
