Link, he came to Town. Come to Town, To save the Princess Zelda.
Zelda Chicken and two different Links that Id made.
Our One Piece Pirate Crew
Id, Sticks, and Dragon have been watching a lot of One Piece. We went to ACen last month with the kids and I made costumes for each of them. Dragon was Nami, Sticks was Zoro, and Tic Tock was Luffy. Id made these. I'm sure he'll be making more of these.

Pokemon Forever
Id made all these Pokemon characters. I made a pokeball and sticks copied it and made the other one.
Spring has sprung
A few flowers we made with the flower patterns. We have the daisy pegboard and the tulip one as well, but I don't think we've made anything with them yet. Sticks brought home a cup with a sunflower seed he planted at school. All the other kids had little green stems, but nothing has grown from Stick's seed yet. I guess he has the same green thumb that we have. His teacher game him a couple extra seeds to try again since tomorrow is the last day of school. Let's hope we can get something to grow.
Protect Skylands From Evil Forces
I purchased Id the Skylanders game two Christmases back. Sticks loves the game and can play through a few levels on his own. We bought the Giants game when it came out and have been collecting all the figures from the most recent game. Sticks went as Chop Chop (his favorite character) for Halloween last year. We don't play much anymore due to time restraints and other interests, but our enjoyment of the game hasn't faded. I made the Undead Element, which is huge. Eventually we plan on making one of all the different Elements.
Chibi things that kill
Sticks and Dragon have watched a lot of Hello Kitty's Fury Tale Theater thanks to Netflix. Even though the show is older, they still enjoy it. Who couldn't love the cute Sanrio characters. Sticks made a Kerokerokeroppi for a coworker of mine. She payed him $5 even though I told her she didn't have to. He used the money and some tooth fairy money and bought a spiderman action figure.
This Whole Thing Started With A Dream And A Mouse
Id and I have always enjoyed Disney movies. Before the kids were born we would watch them together and would even see them in the theater. Not too much has changed on that front. We still buy all the animated ones that we can and see as many of them in the theater with Sticks that we can. We will probably attempt to take Dragon with us when the new Monsters University comes out. Hopefully she doesn't ruin our whole movie experience. The Ralph one was the first Disney character I made. He looks a little off because we didn't have the right colors for his face at the time. their will definitely be more Disney characters in the future.
I'm super, thanks for asking
We took Sticks to see Iron Man 3 in the theaters. He loves superheros like most boys. Spiderman is his favorite. He enjoyed the movie even though it was a little slow going for him to get to all the action. Since the movie was fresh in his mind, we had to make an Iron Man. More superhero characters will be coming in the future.
Ornithoid and Swine
I doubt their are many people out there who have not tried playing angry birds, this family included. Sticks is better at this game than I am. This is the largest project Sticks has done. I foresee him making more angry bird characters in the future.
I throw nickles into the oven and it's music
We recently bought Sticks a Les Paul Pee Wee guitar and plan on taking him to get lessons. This inspired us to start making music.

Keeper of the Forest
My Neighbor Totoro was recently released on blu-ray. Of course we had to update our DVD copy and have a family movie night. You're probably asking where Totoro is. I recently made a plush Totoro, so I skipped making a perler one at this time. I will be making a Totoro as a future project. I may even do another Catbus that shows off his body.

Chemical X
After making the Powerpuff girls (Bubbles, Blossom, and Buttercup). Sticks reminded me that I needed to make Professor Utonium. Maybe someday in the future, but I doubt it. Sticks and Dragon watch the Powerpuff girls from time to time, but it's not one they usually ask for. At the time I made these we didn't have many girly ones so I felt we needed to fix that.
Feed With Candy
Sticks, Dragon, Id, and I enjoy playing this game. It is cute and a rather inexpensive one. If you never heard of it you can check out the Cut The Rope site. This was Id's first large project. Unfortunately their were problems with the ironing process, but it still looks good.
Friendship is Magic
I loved My Little Ponies when I was a little girl. After having a daughter of my own I guess it was only a matter of time before she liked them as well. At first I didn't approve of the new look because I felt overly nostalgic on the old design. Now I prefer how the new ponies look and I actually enjoy watching the show with Dragon. (Sometimes I feel like I like them more than she does.) Their will definitely be more MLP projects in the future.
Freaky Just Got Fabulous
Dragon has gotten into Monster high. They first started putting out merchandise when she was baby and I remember we bought her the Draculara plush. I really liked the designs of the characters, but never purchased anymore when I found out that they were supposed to be from a web series that was coming out. I wish I had. A lot of the dolls are rare and very expensive. It doesn't really matter though, she's too young to really care and it's a valuable lesson that sometimes you can't and wont get stuff that you want. Luckily she wants the ones she sees in the stores and isn't aware of all the ones she can't have.

The Cherry-Chasing Dot-Muncher
Sticks made these Pac-Man ghosts and of course Pac-Man himself. I think I overheard that he was going to do Mrs. Pac-Man eventually. I know he has played the game at least once, but probably not that many times so I don't know how come he wanted to make them. Some of the things he makes are odd, so I'll take it.
