Bolota :: Acorn


Uma amiga minha queria dar um boneco a uma criança de dois anos e pediu-me para o fazer. Folheámos vários livros e revistas, até que nos decidimos pela bolota proposta no nº 3 da revista Sew Hip. O Tiago diz que parece um cruzamento entre um cogumelo e uma carcaça, e de facto é uma bolota um pouco bizarra... no entanto, espero que o seu sorriso à marialva e o guizo que pus lá dentro sejam suficientes para que não acabe no fundo de uma gaveta.

A friend of mine wanted to give a toy to a 2-year-old child and asked me to make it. We fliped through some books and magazines and ended up choosing the acorn in Sew Hip's issue 3. Tiago says it looks like the bad result of a good relationship between a mushroom and a Portuguese roll and I reckon it's a rather bizarre acorn... nevertheless, I hope its smile and the bell I placed inside will be enough to prevent it for living inside a drawer.

  1. This is the cutest little Portuguese roll I've ever seen. I doubt that it'll live in a drawer!! I love it. I hope Tiago was just joking.
