Very Funny Very Silly Zodiacs

There are 12 zodiac signs, and each sign has its own strengths and weaknesses,

its own specific traits, desires and attitude towards life and people.

 By analyzing the projection of the position of planets, and the Sun and the Moon on the Ecliptic at the moment of birth.

Astrology can give us a glimpse of a person's basic characteristics, preferences, flaws and fears.

Each of the 12 horoscope signs belongs to one of the four elements – Air, Fire, Water and Earth. These elements represent an essential type of energy that acts in each of us. Astrology aims to help us focus these energies on the positive aspects and to gain a better understanding of our potential and our positive traits and deal with negative ones.

These four elements help describe the unique personality types associated with astrological signs. The four zodiac elements exhibit profound influence on basic character traits, emotions, behavior and thinking.

A "Christmas" doily

That way my husband named that doily. A simply story:

I wanted to crochet that doily in different colours then original, and it got that way.

Today, Christmas is a time for family and friends to get together and exchange gifts.

TOPO GIGIO

Topo Gigio was the lead character of a children's puppet show on Italian and Spanish television in the early 1960s. The character, created by artist Maria Perego, debuted on Italian television in 1959 and has been customarily voiced by actor Giuseppe "Peppino" Mazzullo. The Italian nickname "Gigi" is a derivative of Luigi ("Louis"),^[1] so Topo Gigio could be translated as Louie Mouse.

Accessories...

Butterflies are deep and powerful representations of life.

The gavel & the 'sound block' for judge :)

Hi, everyone
Today I have a gavel and "sound block" for judge.

Here is a little history:
The wooden mallet that a judge uses in court is called a gavel.
Judges have them as a symbol of authority and also a forceful signal - they hit the sound block with the gavel to signal that the court is in session. They also hit it when the court is adjourned, when a sentence is passed and to demand order and silence in the courtroom.

The gavel has been used to control meetings since the middle ages and there are rules for its use in 'Robert's Rules of Order'.

I made a gavel & sound block by my husband request. Yarns used light and dark brown.

Hook 3.5mm/E/4. The gavel & sound block sizes are as the same as real ones.
I made them probably in 3 hours.
You can purchase pattern gavel & 'sound blog'
