Googley Eyes

Filed under: Silly Somethings — Joy @ 10:58 am

Come on think back to when you were little and you will remember them. The little craft eyes! You know plastic clear bubble with a little black ball that rolls all around when you shake it. Ah see you remember. I started thinking about Charis’s birthday and decided to journey to the craft store for some ideas. I just could not ignore the little package of googley eyes that stared at me. They just add so much whimsy to any project! Therefore Charis’s ladybugs have googley eyes on her invitations! I am sure that if she were old enough to care she would just think they are the best things ever! Anyways, I pulled them out of the package last night and I just have to say that the ladybugs came to life with a lot of whimsy! I think that I even giggled as I attached them. Brad looked at me a little funny when I explained but it was fun to be taken back to childhood when everything could come to life before your very eyes. I am so excited to encourage imagination in Charis even with a few googley eyes!

  3. Joy,
    You have to show me one of the invitations! I remember you doing Hunter’s first b-day invite which seems like a few days ago. I can NOT belive Charis and Callie are turning one! It seems like they are growing up WAY to fast!

  4. Googley eyes are an essential part of childhood and don’t discredit Charis…I’m betting that she’ll see those eyes that roll around and be quite amused!!! Congratulations by the way on having an almost 1 year old!!!
