Maker Faire!

Yoda Finger Puppet!
My husband and I are thinking of attending this GREAT sounding Faire in the Bay Area this weekend called: Maker Faire. We've never been but, hear it's great! Whilst perusing the programs listed, I found this little gem: "Star Wars Sock Puppet Craft" I do not know HOW this can possibly top the GREATEST "Star Wars" sock puppet show(s)* EVER but, I want to go! Right now!! The craft is hosted by Bonnie Burton. You can see a really great Yoda finger puppet (pictured above) on Starwars.com.

* The absolute end-all-greatest-ever "Star Wars" Sock Puppet show(s) I've EVER seen were performed on Angel Island in SF and for a SFBAPG Guild challenge.

Quick Office Move Video

Sean surveys the space

On my Facebook page, you'll find a quick little video of our new Office Space and the move we did. I can't believe we outgrew the old place so quickly! The new space is amazing! So much larger, with rehearsal space, office space, and even a reception area. I am just so pleased!

Big, big thanks to the entire Swazzle team for jumping in to make this move possible! It's a big step for our company and all of you are a part of it.

More from the Display Table

Valerie Nelson's Mask

As I mentioned in yesterday's post, at our Guild Meetings, we usually have a display table for Guild Members to showcase their latest puppet work. At the June meeting, Valerie Nelson, from Magical Moonshine Puppets, brought along this awesome head she's working on. I could have stared at it for hours. It was just very interesting.

Rear Mask

Here, you can see the back of the puppet head, revealing it's structure. I told it was interesting!
