Annoyed Grunt.

Annoyed grunt?  What kind of a title is that?

If you are a fan of The Simpsons tv series, you are familiar with Homer Simpson's famous catchphrase "D'oh!"  But in teleplay form, it isn't written "D'oh."  It's annoyed grunt.

Perhaps now you begin to understand where this is going...?  A recent yard sale scored me this awesome collection of Play Doh shape cutters.

So cute.  Such fun colors.  Now they are necklaces:

Wanna try?  Here's the super simple DIY.




Make a little hole in the top of one of these critters.  You can use a Dremel-type tool or drill.  Or try my favorite trick, a heated metal poker to melt the hole.  Then add a headpin loop:

Use a jump ring to add your shape cutter pendant to a complementary necklace...

Yay!

For a no-tools version, tie a knot in the middle of some cord, and thread it up through the hole in your critter:

Then string beads until it's long enough to go over your head.  Tie a final knot and you're done!

So.  Cute or weird?  They really do look adorable on...

I am going with cute.

Or am I just having sugar-fueled delusions from all the donuts? (The ones I ate to get in the mood for this post.)


D'oh!
