Regardless, I really like the little critter and the hearts he has attached to his Chinese lantern.

I especially like the sweet little face, and the paper hearts on the string.<br />I didn't have time to draw and post a lantern this week as we took a trip to visit grandchildren and do some sightseeing. Wish I had thought of a paper lantern such as Serena drew. That I <i>would</i> have had time to make before we left, but my mind was stuck on a camping-type lantern!joekshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02667559017050803003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5121812607429910170.post-91599174001901509622017-03-16T10:41:53.960-07:002017-03-16T10:41:53.960-07:00What a super adorable piece.

IT was so warm this evening when I got home that I actually put shorts on and I rarely do that! <br /><br />I love that term, "hoggie farm." How sweet. Yes, you and me, dear Mary. I miss them too adn like you, we had one in our back garden which I always found extraordinary considering it was a little brick walled lot on the back of a typical row home. We never could figure out how it got in there or what it lived on but I suppose it must have dug a hole under all the walls and out in the streets or something. <br /><br />Thank you for the visit! I'm really looking forward to seeing what you'll show this time. :)Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17712046924863763290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5121812607429910170.post-44457890277434796932017-03-15T18:07:30.036-07:002017-03-15T18:07:30.036-07:00That's funny, it was almost an afterthought an...That's funny, it was almost an afterthought and yet is one of the most consistent comment on Instagram.

We used to have one in our Torquay garden - every winter he would hibernate under a hedge. I now have a friend in Staffordshire who rescues them and tends to them in specially built 'hoggie houses' in her garden.<br /><br />Paper lanterns are beautiful - I really love your version.<br />Hope your week is happy. We are getting winter here at long last - very cold and a danger for our flowering shrubs and fruit crops etc.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11915239653283205065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5121812607429910170.post-91618436108027504242017-03-15T05:21:35.047-07:002017-03-15T05:21:35.047-07:00This is absolutely adorable, Michael!
