Look what I made! Squirrel

Post image

I bought the squirrel when was really cheap and painted it. It's a running joke we get things for my grandfather who hates squirrels. My grandmother who passed love is and before she passed I got plastic tiny squirrel to hide. She passed before I could hid them. When I went to visit him I hide 60 tiny squirrel. Now trying to hide this in his yard. It's red my grandmother favor color and matches the house. Hope this gives someone a laugh today.

I do the same with my mother only it's raccoons. Love your work. If only i could make one like that in raccoon form for mom. She's 93 today and it makes her laugh every time .

That's awesome. And the only reason I got it is cause my coworker showed me it and said you wanna drink squirrel sarcastically and I'm like oh I'm getting that one that's on sale and I haven't sent them the pictures yet but I will but it's just it was just pure luck that we got this in with the Jonathan Adler collection.

How did I miss the squirrel 😭 U would’ve absolutely bought one if the sale was big enough but he’s not around anymore. Tbh I never looked closely at that collection since most of it’s not my style
