Hello Kitty Wishes you a Merry Christmas!

Hello Kitty Christmas Lawn Decorations
This is my lawn.

Funny what a little plywood, exterior house paint, acrylic paints, clear protective spray paint, wood stick and a tracer/enlarger can make!

Special thanks to Mrs. J for lending me her tracer/enlarger. Hello Kitty is basically a line drawing that has made billions of dollars.

Hello Kitty Christmas Lawn Decoration
I wanted to make some unique holiday decorations so I decided to spread the Hello Kitty love. I hope to make a whole Sanrio themed lawn display someday... Pandapple, Little Twin Star, that rabbit friend, tulips and all that is cute.

I'm going to invite my friend Diane down to LA for an "artists retreat" this summer and make her paint them with me (she painted the pink on HK with candy cane over Thanksgiving!) It's important to give your friends a creative outlet, no?! ;)

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from the Food Librarian and her Hello Kitty friends!

    AMAZING! You should send this to Sanrio and see if they'll hire you. I should have put Kitty and Daniel on my cake. Next year!

    Merry Christmas Mary! :)

    Merry Christmas! Love the Hello Kitty . . . perfect holiday decoration. I have a bundt question for you: I have a recipe for 18 cupcakes . . . do you think that amount of batter would be fine as a bundt instead of cupcakes? If the cupcakes cook for 30 minutes, the bundt would cook for at least an hour, I think.
