Lego Minifigures Instagram Pics

September 22, 2013 | emmaline

I joined Instagram as a little social experiment, to see what sort of stuff if be posting. As it turns out, lots of lego minifigs pics! Thought I’d share here too, as it’s quite the thing to search for at the moment, and I hope to be adding more zombie lego photos as I get more zombie lego heads – going up every week on eBay.

Amazing anenomes showing off their delicate floaty Amazing anenomes showing off their delicate floatyness 🖤

I love anything to do with the sea, and I’m happiest when I’m in earshot of it.

Whenever I lived abroad, I’d go and sit by the sea just listening to it, I find it so calming and mentally healing. I wish I lived closer to the coast so I could go every day.

Not the greatest photos but here’s the crochet r Not the greatest photos but here’s the crochet rag doll mermaid I made for @rosebunhun’s birthday.

The pattern is a crochet-along by @mandmcrochetdesigns (I bought the pattern rather than using the blog posts), and I love how she turned out.

The hair was a bit of a pain as I decided to adapt the pattern and make curly hair, which added hours to the make but it was totally worth it!

Yarn: Sirdar Happy Cotton (body, tail, etc) and Stylecraft Batik (hair)

I’ve had so many requests to make more but am still giving my arms a rest from this one 😆

What do you think?

It’s considerably larger than the usual baby blankets I make (it’s cot bed sized), and made from cashmere and merino so, by default, was costlier too. I’m happy with how it turned out 🧶👶🏽 #crochetblanket #crochetersofinstagram #babyblanket #cashmere #merino

You get the Dre Head with this Lego set too, which is a nice touch, although because of where this is placed, you can’t really swivel the driver into the correct place so he’s just sort of hanging around the front of the bus facing the side.

I loved how JKR and Warner Bros kept the appearance and aggressive nature of the merpeople from the books, see what I mean with the excerpt below from Goblet of Fire.
~
“The merpeople had greyish skins and long, wild, dark green hair. Their eyes were yellow, as were their broken teeth, and they wore thick ropes of pebbles around their necks. They leered at Harry as he swam past; one or two of them emerged from their caves to watch him better, their powerful, silver fishtails beating the water, spears clutched in their hands.”

Pausing for a moment today at the statue of my nam Pausing for a moment today at the statue of my namesake, Emmeline Pankhurst, and thinking how far we’ve come since our suffragette sisters banded together to push first-wave feminism. We still have so far to go, but don’t think for one minute that we’re not up for it 🌱🙋🏽‍♀️

Made another eco switch today 🖤 we’re pacing Made another eco switch today 🖤 we’re pacing our switches and this week saw us introducing @whogivesacraptp toilet paper, kitchen roll, and tissues to our shopping subscriptions. ~
I really admire the people who can go eco-friendly quickly, unfortunately we’re not all in a position to change everything in one go, but I do believe doing something is better than doing nothing. So far we’ve eliminated  single use wipes, liquid hand soap, cotton wool pads, non-eco laundry detergent, non-eco dishwasher soap, plastic carrier bags, and plastic tea bags among other products and unethical services. We’re obviously using up the leftovers and we’re already conscientious about what we binned/recycled/reused/upcycled.

Recently, somebody attempted to eco shame me because they were doing more than my family, which really doesn’t help the cause - we all need to make changes where we can, it’s not just a drop in the ocean as all those drops can amass to a tidal wave 🌊

Am just over a third of the way through this cable Am just over a third of the way through this cabled blanket, which is a gift for my youngest sister. It seems to be taking forever 💤 and my cheeky arthritis isn’t helping but I’m determined to get this finished! I reckon I’ll have this done in a couple of weeks 🖤

I’ve been planning this tattoo for a long time, years in fact. I knew that I would only have it etched onto my skin when I was ready to open at that close.
