A bit of whimsy in an extraordinary life

I have to say, the googly eyes are getting better. These ones from the Halloween section of Dollar Tree totally rock (if you put them on rocks that would be ironic, maybe even funny). In addition to some dollar store sea shells (yeah, I don't remember which one), and a bit of glue, I had to literally make my children stop.
I used Glossy Sccents (Crystal Lacquer, whetever name it comes in), as glue because these babies are on my little window sill at my tub. I am sure Elemer's would be sufficient, however with moisture I wanted to be sure. The only bottle I had left was sepia toned, so yeah, they all have a bit of pink eye. Oh well. They're still darling and I love the whimsy it adds to my peaceful tub time. By peaceful I mean I get a minimum of three interruptions, because heaven forbid....
Of course, with the Kawaii craze and Shopkins, the mini google eyes can (and have been) added to anything for fun, laughter, and amusement.
"Look Mom, my pencil has eyes!"
"Mom it's a live toy car."
"Mommy I put a face on one of your 'mommy diapers'."
The joy just doesn't end.
