Onath's (I think it was) puppet thread inspired me to post my own puppet pics. Constructive criticism would be appreciated.
A little Background:
Harold Angel was made to help me tell the Christmas Story at church last year. He's been trying to tell people that he was misquoted in the Christmas carol. It's "BARK! Harold angel sings."
Esther Bunny is Peter Rabbit's little sister. She's always been jealous of Peter's egg distributorship, and wants to be a diva. Currently she's learning that you don't climb trees with a peanut butter sandwich in one hand.
George the cat is just a 'doodle' puppet. I found a knitting 'recipe' to make a puppet, and George is what came out. He's kind of a mellow, jazzy, hip dude--Floyd pepper crossed with Bill Cosby.
Edna and Red were my entries in Project Puppet's contests last year and this year respectively. Edna is made from the Glorified Sock puppet, and Red is the pinhead pattern.
Red is a bit of a helion. She was raised in the forest by her grandmother, who lived next door to a family of bears. After Grandma died, Red and several other victims, sued the B B Wolf estate in a class action suit and won. She took the settlement money she got from the B. B. Wolf estate, and moved into a small townhouse on the 'seedier side' of the city (Ankh-Morpork? South Side of Chicago?) Anyhow, the money soon ran out and Red had to go to work. Using her networking skills, she got a job as a receptionist with the 3 Pigs Construction company. She met them during the Wolf hearings.
Unfortunately, the Pigs have had to pay some settlements and fines for shoddy construction, so they can't afford to pay her much. They actually tried to use Gingerbread and candies to build a house for an older lady. When some bratty vandals started trying to eat her house, the woman asked them to stop, and they pushed her into the oven. The lady's family wanted the kids punished as well, but Red convinced the family not to press charges and arranged for foster care and vocational training for the boy and girl. She's wants to become a teacher and social worker, but is having to pay for her school piecemeal. She still wears the red hoodie that her granny gave her, and hopes that one day, she will be someone else's Princess Charming . . . but she's not going to put her life on hold.
Edna Grundy is the hapless every-teacher. She's not quite as old as dirt, but definitely older than her students. They think she's hopelessly out-of-touch and strict, and speculate that she began teaching shortly after the dinosaurs left. Despite her students' unruliness and unwillingness, Miss Grundy devotes herself to bringing the light of knowledge to each student--even if she has to use a sledgehammer to get their attention.
Never married, Miss Grundy lives alone in a run-down, haunted-looking house with her 27 billion cats. In her free time, she enjoys grading papers, gossip, and preparing pop quizzes and assignments to torture her students.
