go ahead, you can totally make fun of me

seriously, it's ok. i make fun of myself, a lot.

anyways, on with my post: for christmas su gave velz this great rockheads book. the other day i thought it might be fun to make my own rockheads so we collected some rocks at the beach and i sort of forgot about them. then i remembered them. then i made them. then i decided to take portraits of them. then i cried real salt water tears when i showed luke the pictures because i thought they were so funny.
i decided to call them pebble pals. then luke made fun of me. then he came up with a few more names: basalt buddies, pohaku pals, piedra pals, rocky rascals, and stoners. then i made fun of him.

don't i have anything better to do with my time? nope. i think i am going to open up an etsy shop (totally joking. although with some of the ridiculous stuff i have seen people actually sell on there- i think i might have found my nitch. joking again.). you could use them for garden decorations, paper weights, the possibilities are endless....

I totally love them & Islay (who's looking over my shoulder) wants to make one right now! That's a great art project idea. We've decided that the top one looks like a little owl - awesome Ashley!

You could TOTALLY open an etsy with those things! So darn cute! hahahahahaha
I wonder if they would sell? You should open one just for the "stoners" and see what happens!! Oh, and thank you SO MUCH for the baby food/cereal! Sorry Saturday didn't work out as planned... hmmm... check for the next posting on my blog and you'll know why!! hahaha oh my...

hahahaha I love it!!

You should sell them on esty! hahaha! There are people who would probably buy them, dress them up and keep them as their children.

Out of curiosity how did you make the small rocks stick on to the big rocks?

mahina said...

Actually people would snatch those up! I love 'em! Sooo cute! They definitely put the rock pets to shame. ha ha

Brady said...

LOve iT! I think the first one is my favorite... the one with the sea urchins skeletons for eyes...that is fanstastic!

I wrote on Melissa's blog that Echo gets back in a few days so when she does we should all get together! I am the worst at planning stuff and am such the procrastinator. It has been so busy in the dorms because we are leaving and with graduation coming up it has been even worse... so a beach day would be the best! Anyone and everyone should come =o)

I bet the girls loved it...and the only one that looks like a stoner is the last one with the rasta hat!

I think they're awesome! :) I love the first one... it looks like an owl. :) I also like the one with a little flower on it's head. So fun!

Hi Ashley. I found you again and I'm so happy to see that you are not only dressing up rocks but you look exactly the same and that is a HUGE compliment. You have the cutest little kiddo ever so congrats. I can honestly say that I'm the worlds WORST blogger ever and I don't really enjoy doing it but I do have a blog at www.the3jollyrogers.blogspot.com. Check us out because I love hearing what you're up to. I'm a bad communicator but it doesn't mean I don't still love you.
