A <) a Day (#11)
Christmas (his first!) came early this year for little Snow-Proof Safety Cone in the form of a carefully thought-out mix for safety cones and humans alike: <) < 3 (2008). It would take one creative person to make such an apt collection of music! (It wasn’t me–I’m not tooting my own horn thank you very much!)
After his mama stared dumbly at iTunes for a good two minutes, she finally saw the “import cd” button and imported away, because Snow-Proof Safety Cone is all fancy-pants and uses an iPod. A “vintage” one at that, but that’s the hipster in him, I guess.
He really likes Jack Johnson’s “We’re going to be friends” because it’s about his safety cone friends, how they “safely walk to school without a sound” and the “teacher marks our height against the wall” and “we sit side by side in every class.”
Yes, I can tell that we are gonna be friends.

too very cute to ignore !! just wanted to let ya know i have done one in hunter green , as a Christmas tree, complete with star on top. Gonna add some beads, etc. for ornaments yet……buttt…..although i am quite a crafty gal, and can improvise with most things, i am not that sharp with the crochet without specific instructions. For instance , i would love to make these lil cones a bit larger, perhaps 8 to 10 inches high. then i could add a beaded ruffle trim in a spiral from top to bottom to be just a lil bit fancier. Can you help me to increase your lil guy ? Could make for “parent” safety cones, and of course you could improvise your own Christmas trees as well.
i would sooooo appreciate your help, if you are able !! might not get to do ‘em in time for this season, but perhaps next ?!!!
Happy Happy Holiday to youuuuu…….: – )
