I have....a new idea

After paging through those cheese/wine/chocolate gift catalogs I'm starting to think I maybe should do up gift bags of several small cat toys, in those cellophane bags used for candies, and have them sold as sets.

Little things though, like scale down the strawberries I make and do them half with the red strawberry fabric and half with brown polar fleece to make 'chocolate dipped strawberries'. And I found some nubbly white almost furry fabric that would be great for coconut appearances on things--how about coconut conures, or macaroon macaws (scaled down to sparrow size of course). Two to a bag.

Heck, next step would be mice dipped in 'white chocolate' or 'dark chocolate'. Maybe with the occasional choco dipped hamster added?

Gotta go check out baking supplies online, I think that's the best area to look for the clear crinkly type bags these would need.

Sadly, with the 12" of snow that fell last week that's the end of this year's crop of catnip (dammit! There was one more picking I could have done). I even stuffed the 'fresh' stuff from the previous picking into toys beforeit was dry -- taking a chance on it molding, but it dried really nicely and the toys make really crunchy sounds when they're squeezed, so it worked out fine.
