Gone clucky


I'm sorry I've totally gone chickie mad. I blame easter and cute chicken boys.
When I saw these boxes of chickies going cheap at the market this morning I just couldn't resist.
I have a deep love for chickies and these sorts of chenille chicks ( I collect them) the wonkier and more demented the better in my books. I also couldn't bear the thought of them sitting there trapped in a closed box. I also thought they'd make nice Easter gifts.
I already have one that wouldn't be going anywhere, One legged Steve ( yes because of his leg status), has taken my heart.
He's off to join my favourite Desmond, whose never quite recovered from a trip in the post. so wrong yet so right.
Hope your Wednesday is wonderful.
I promise I will try not to speak of chickies again, it's time to go cold turkey i think.

So cute. So funny. I love them too.

I bought you some of those pink eggs. And then Tiny bit them all. ARGH!

They are from Bed Bath & Table. They have quite a few good Eastery things in there. Sorry Jess. I was going to post them to you before Easter, and then they had the Tiny effect.
