Our kitchen counters and dining room table are loaded with craft supplies. Wen has been busy making Scottie-themed Christmas crafts and they are taking over our house! Crafting time means that there are all kinds of fascinating things for us Scotties to get into and believe me, if some glittery item or a glue stick falls to the floor, we Scotties are right there to grab it.
The other day, Wen was working on centerpieces and she inadvertently knocked some miniature felt Christmas stockings off the counter. In a flash, Sadie ran over, scooped one up and had holes chewed in it before Wen realized what was going on.
All of the little parts and pieces may be hazardous to our health, but that doesn’t seem to stop us, because we Scotties have been known to latch onto an assortment of items, such as ribbon, buttons, floral wire, fiber fill stuffing, floral picks, fabric, and on and on. One of my all-time personal favorites is a glue stick, because they are nice and chewy.
Needless to say, all of the craft supplies are off limits to us, but we still like to hang around, just in case. You’d think that we would learn from getting a lecture each time that we have gotten ahold of some tantalizing item, only to have Wen swoop down and take it away, but no-o-o! Crafting time provides us with entertainment. You never know when a strand of miniature twinkle lights could hit the floor!
Is that for me?
