Oh dear. The cutest little puppy has come to live with us. One of Oscar and our favorite author/illustrators is Maggie Smith. We have two of her books now (Paisley and Dear Daisy Get Well Soon) and love them. Both have secret life of toys themes which are very big around here. So when I saw that she has a new etsy shop carrying her original toy designs I jumped. Please meet Frankie dog..
We are all so in love with this adorable puppy. He’s the cutest thing, made from a great vintage print and so unbelievably well made. All of Maggie’s toys are so so cute. Look at these ears! and this nose! and this tail! I think we definitely need another one…
I know I mentioned other plans for today’s post but I’ve been drawn off track by beautiful weather, fun mail and maybe some online shopping. shhh..
and these ears!
oh these are some great (dangerous) links, hillary. thank YOU!
Thanks for the link! The little mice are so cute.
