A mammoth like no other

(Below are this week's Tuesday Finds, inspired by the lovely Krisse. Remember to take a look at those too!)

This weekend was filled with much happy fun-time, celebrating a friend's birthday. Making the birthday present for this occasion must have been one of the most fun projects I've ever done, too. (Especially hunting for girly things all over town with Mr Morrgan, to get her dressed up just right.) I give you the world's one and only pissis mammoth, Krisse.

Now how to translate pissis into English. Imagine loud teenage girls with too much makeup, tight designer jeans (or alternately a tiny miniskirt in winter) and huge earrings, who drink too much cider although they're too young to drink and can't hold their liquor, have a preference for pink... You get the idea.

So here's Krisse, with her pink fur in a poodle hairstyle (very popular these days, she says), huge earrings and turquise nail polish matching her eye shadow. All ready for Saturday night!

The fact that we chose to make something like this for a friend's 40th birthday says something about us, and the fact that the little mammoth was much loved says something about the recipient. What exactly that something is I don't want to think about in greater detail. :D

(Fun fact learned at the party: Too much headbanging results in a really, really sore neck. Owie.)
