The last of my box people

I finished the last of them today. It has been a lot of fun but I am ready to move on. I took several of your suggestions as to what they could be doing. Some are even related to fiber. Someone asked me if I was going to make any women. I like to think of them as androgynous, but some of them do suggest  men or women. You decide.


These tiny cards are some of the miniatures I found at Michael's.



Same for the umbrella and box of tiny spools of thread in the next one.


My friend, Paula, gave me a tiny tea set from a doll house. I only used the cup and saucer.


The washtub came from Michael's and the bubbles are bubble wrap, of course.



The sewing machine is from Michael's and the small quilt was made from a bag of pieced scraps left from my Big Green Diptych quilt.


Paula knitted me this itsy piece. She knitted it on tiny metal needles and transferred it to plastic toothpicks.  I cut them down and glued the kitting in place so it wouldn't fall off.

Several people suggested that I have a dancer, so here is my ballerina.

Now I have to decide how I am going to put them all together on one big black background. I'll be sure to show you when I do.

I'm linking up with Off The Wall Friday.

Each one is a treasure. I can't even decide on a favorite! Bubble wrap for a hot tub is brilliant! You should have a gallery show with these.
