Favorite Movie swap.. what I made my partner.

Oh, I have been remiss! Here is what I sent my partner, Mothlight. Her favorite three movies where Coraline, La Belle et la Bete (French version of Beauty and the Beast), and Tremors.
               First of all.. Tremors. OMGosh how I loved making this Graboid for her! I really didn't want to send it once it was finished!  For those of you who don't know the movie, they are giant worm things that travel underground..really fast, and come up and eat you. They have snake like tongues, well, you can see in the photo. I also made her a dishcloth that mimics the license plate of one of the characters who is.. shall we say.. a gun nut. It says UZI 4 U.

Next, we have her favorite movie, Coraline. In this movie, a doll is found that looks just like her. So, I found a photo of my spoilee online, in a sweater she had just knitted for herself. I made her Coraline doll look just like her.
She also got a key necklace and
... a necklace of Coraline's blue octo toy, button bracelet, spider stitch markers. The hand holding the candle is from the Beauty and Beast movie.(candle holder for a cupcake)
Next, because I could, I made her some copies of things she wanted on Etsy..bird necklace, caterpillar necklace and Coraline looking stone earrings and necklace.
From La Belle et la Bete, which I could only watch online in 9 short videos which made up the whole movie..
The Beast's magic glove, and a key fob with a Rose, key and a photo from the movie.
It really is a hoot to see this movie! It is in French, though it has subtitles. The thing is from the 40's, and is so kooky! You should check it out!
I also sent some little bee buttons she wanted, and a pattern.. Paper Dolls. I had a blast making this stuff!
