Goodbye Cody

A couple months ago I got an email from a woman on facebook telling me she is my cousins daughter.  I lost track of these cousins about 40 years ago.  Her father died last summer and she had been in touch with her uncle and found my name on facebook.  We have been communicating ever since and catching up on family stuff.  She had 4 big dogs and one of them was Cody.

 

She had him for 13 years and he was her best friend.  He got very sick and died about 3 weeks ago.  She asked me if I could make her a blue bracelet because he always wore a blue collar and she wanted something to remember him by.

 

 

The bracelet is Kumihimo and the heart is polymer clay.  I stamped Cody in the clay and then antiqued it.  I finished it buy putting Future on it and rebaking it.  Good thing she has 3 little kids to keep her busy.

 

BUSTER

 

Yesterday I was going to wash Buster's lamb that makes noise but every time I went to get it, this is what he did.

 

 

How cute is that?  He's had that since he was 3 months old and if I talk on the cell phone he throws Lambie on the floor.  I am well trained.
