I was feeling bored and I have yet another toothache, so I decided to post again.....I went through a phase where I made quite a few of these little yo-yo clowns. They are pretty small and fairly labor intensive, so I stopped making them, at least for now. This little guy is the first one I made and he is still my favorite, though I don't own him anymore! There are about 31 yo-yo's in each clown, all made by hand. They are 1/2" in diameter. It is very disouraging when I was making these and at times, the stringing process would go haywire and break. (The stringing involves using 2 long needles simultaneously) All the yo-yo's would just fall all over the place and I would have to start all over again! The fun part is painting the faces. Each one always had a distinct personality.
