puppets, like gordon, enjoy rueben sandwiches

I found this impressive puppet blog while actually googling my own blog (who doesn't google themselves?). It was indexed on some aggregating site along with Gordon's rueben sandwich post and all other things rueben sandwich related. there's a nice tutorial on how to make blinking eyes.

Also today is your last day to vote for your favorite puppets in the contest here!

a story?

So do we want to make puppets in preparation for a story?
My dad is pushing for "Midsummers Nights Dream"
Which could be fun.
Plus, it has like 20+ parts...but that would involve everyones participation.

Get inspired

Check out the Bread and Puppet theatre. They used to hold summer long workshops in the moyoane which would end in a giant puppet production. They taught me to walk on and make stilts too. It was fun fun fun!
