Hard to believe that this May 16th marks 31 years since Jim Henson died. Also hard to believe it, but the weekend that I have just spent fiercely attempting to craft not one, but TWO ‘muppety style’ puppets was done while entirely unaware of the significance of the final day of the creative challenge! (Which was also… May 16th!) Although I have made puppets before, I have never tried making one of these foam/felt/fleece types, prior to this weekend. So I am doubly pleased with the result, it was definitely a learning experience! :D Adam Kreutinger and Adam Savage, thank you also for the inspiration in your “how to” and “One Day” builds respectively. ❤️ The impact of the kindness, compassion and creativity of Jim Henson on my mentalscape just had to be acknowledged. All that remains to do are the hands. Meanwhile here is little Opti Popkins, and his amazing human musician/friend from twitch.tv/veryhandsomebilly ;) . . . . .https://www.instagram.com/p/CO9wjLoFo4B/?utm_medium=tumblr -- source link
