I thought I would have a go at making toys today! I have never done this before, so you are not allowed to laugh at my first attempt

I think you did a mighty fine job at your very first toy. And I don't even call it an 'attempt' - I call it a SUCCESS. Before you know it you'll have a TON of toy-making supplies, and you'll find yourself almost addicted to making your own things for your fid(s) Yup, I look at catalogs and online photos for inspiration, then I run out and gather supplies and try to imitate what I've liked the most. It's fun, it really is. And my goodness, it's saved me boatloads of money on the big macs, who can be quite the beavers at times.

Thank you, Wendy
Yes, I am already looking at toy making parts and have a feeling it is going to become a bit of an addiction, plus it will save me lots of money

Once you start making them[and seeing how easy it is]. I was always surprised the mark up on toys.

I received an invitation recently to a toy making "bee". In essence, you bring your toy making supplies and everyone else does as well. Everyone can choose from anybody's supplies. You sit around making toys and gossiping. The only thing that would be better is to add a pitcher of martinis
