Subject: Re: [Puptcrit] Stray Puppet Parts (Was Coffee Filter Papers)


Sounds just like home! Our kids grew up with various puppet body parts
throughout the shop and house. They thought it was kind of fun however.
They would sneak off with some hands and feet and bury them so they were
sticking up out of the flower bed! <G> My son took half a puppet head
(the top half I'd cut off for some reason) and set it out proudly on his
desk.

Thankfully, it doesn't appear to have affected them adversely in their
adult lives. LOL!  They were pretty excited when one of our puppets ended
up on a recent Sprint commercial.

We have different drivers who deliver UPS packages to the shop here. Some
are quite interested in seeing all the puppet parts and figures in
various stages of completion. Others look like they're about ready to
freak out!  <G> The latter tend to leave rather quickly!

Cheers,
