Last weekend when we were at Daiso, hubs was looking for a flexible metal hose but ended up buying a walking stick. For the life of me, I cannot understand why he wants to get it. He said it will be good when we go hiking. I’m like, what? When did we ever go hiking? We hardly even go to the park *roll eyes* I think he just a shopaholic. Anyway, the missy had the most fun with the walking stick. She was using it as a stick horse, galloping around the house. An idea struck me and I told Ashley that I will make her a stick horse to play with 🙂
The first thing I got is one lonely sock.
Got ready 2 brown cloth, 2 buttons and some twines.
I stuffed the sock with a hand towel and ashley’s old t-shirt. Then I sew the 2 pieces of brown cloth onto the sock as ears and the buttons as eyes. Next I sew on the twines as the horse’s mane. Does it look like a horse’s head?
Last but not least, insert the stick into the sock. Ashley insisted that we must add a dash of pink onto the horsey by securing the sock with a pink ribbon
The happy girl was thrilled. Giddy yap giddy yap let’s go…….
Creative mummy! Yes, it does looks like a horse head 😉
thanks 🙂
Oh giddy yup giddy yup Ashley babe…Oh this must be a female one…I saw the pink ribbon…
hahaha..yes 🙂
Brilliant!!
thanks 🙂
Coming to think of it, I agree with your husband to buy a walking stick. I think it can be useful at times and you would never know when it will come in handy at home or when you go for an evening walk outside.Thanks to your husband, I am thinking of buying one myself 🙂
hahha..i think you should come to my house. we have sticks/swords everywhere at home 😛
nice! You’re so creative!
thanks 🙂
Cute! Mummy is really creative! New toy for Ashley.
thank you 🙂
GOOD JOB! Well…the walking stick came to some use in end! 🙂
thanks 🙂
hahaha a good idea. AT least she can amuse herself and the walking stick wont go to waste
heehhe..thanks.
Barb, I salute you. You can do almost everything with your creativity. Ashley is blessed.
thank you 🙂
Yes, Barb, I really salute you. I sure throw the old sock away but you made it into a horse head :O
heheheh…thanks.
Great idea! *thumbs up*
Stick horses are not cheap, so this is such a great alternative!
thank you 🙂
You can also make a zebra out of another sock and your girl can alternate between the two animals!
thanks for the idea 🙂
Very good idea! hahaha! It reminded me of my girl galloping using my umbrella.
thanks 🙂
it looks so REAL!

That’s a brilliant idea, Barb! I have a lot of old black socks at home. Perhaps Chloe would like to have Black Beauty instead haha 🙂
