Yo (yo) Adrian ......



.......can you put some yo yo's on this here championship belt thing ???

Sorry .... couldn't resist .... anyhow, good morning Blogland Neighborhood and welcome to today's topic of: "What can you put a yo yo on?". Well, what can't you put a yo yo on? Well, guess there are some things you wouldn't want to put a yo yo on .... but here are some examples of what you CAN put a yo yo on .....



.....how about a lampshade? (this is a work in progress ... more yo yo's are planned to gussy this plain lampshade up a bit)









...how about Kitty? (her St Patrick's Day tam is an upside down yo yo)






.....then there's our Flower Pot Cozy made with a giant yo yo pulled up around a plastic flower pot and decorated with more yo yo's ....




.......and you can make lots and lots of yo yo's with covered button centers and combine them with some glass beads to make a garland to .......



......hang across a window to brighten up that drab winter scene outside.



For more fun and creative ideas for yo yo embelishing, you should check out Linda Lum Debono's Yo Yo Challenge Flickr page .

Be back soon!
Toodles,
Mary Anne (aka Mare)

not that into yo yos but that garland is pretty neat. oh, the lampshade will be great too. it was all pretty brilliant actually. my first art doll is almost complete, just need to make her clothes. mark cannot understand why since i spent days and days beading her and they will get covered up, well some anyway. she will still sparkle. its really been a fun project. cannot wait to start a new one......kitty is her usual spunky self i see, keeping you in line no doubt :-)
