Frogs are Hopping! #Folksy

I was going to keep yesterdays here for today but I found myself adding frogs.
I mean really? FROGS?
What possessed me? Apart from the face there were several on Folksy`s front page that looked really cute! It had me looking for more of them. When I put frogs into the search, I got 1 page, when I removed the S I had 4 pages. Very strange.
So anyway, here it is, for your delectation.
Now yesterday was strangely unproductive and yet productive. I spent all morning wrestling with some art I was trying to turn into PDF files, without success. Actually I couldn`t even get the first bit right, adding the wording properly. I`ve always done that afterwards before. It`s the putting it together on the computer. I tried different programmes and managed to add a layer to the original pic but it wouldn`t save it together. Back to the drawing board.
The afternoon I spent sewing on beads to jug and glass covers, so that was a job well done. Although I must admit I find it takes so long and is very fiddly, not my favourite job. They do look pretty when they are done though.
As usual, to see a bigger picture or a description, just click on the item to view it in the shop.
ENJOY!!!

Now can I make a verse about a frog?
Maybe I should include a log.
That helps the rhyme go well,
you like it too, I can tell.
Frogs croak and they are green
how cute in reality, yet to be seen.
Now when they adorn garden and wall
we don`t think they are slimy at all.
In our garden we had a pond
of which I used to be quite fond.
Baby frogs, they were quite tricky
it seemed they were very sticky.
Maybe not, they`d just dry out
I`d know when my daughter gave a shout.
On hot paving slabs they would dry
a ready meal for every bird passing by.
Gently, carefully, unpeeled and put back
the tiny frog never seemed to later lack
anything for it`s very daring deed
maybe each time it was the same bad seed!!

  2. That's exactly what happened to our little froglets a few years back - you're the first person I've come across who's had the same thing. The poor little things jumped out of the pond and got stuck to the porous stones around the edge :( At least it won't happen with your Folksy frog selection :) Many thanks for including my grumpy sock frog. x
