Snugglepot and Cuddlepie Bento

Ever since I participated in Wendolonia's 3 tools Bento Challenge I've been wanting to make a May Gibbs Bento! I thought a kiwi fruit with leaf picks for eyes would be the perfect Banksia Man. . . well, in my head it worked ;-)

At least my Snugglepot & Cuddlepie worked out OK. The shrubbery behind them in FooDoodlers didn't quite work though. I think I need some new pens.

 Some strawberry to complete the gumnuts and cheese chunks topped with mini slices worked a treat for Snugglepot & Cuddlepie.










And some cheese cute like a gumleaf and again FooDoodlers for the title. All the cheese art was done using this technique I learned from Robot Squirrel & the Monkeys.

 I included a little note 'Beware the Banksia Man'  on top of our yoghurt container in the hopes that Miss M would know what the Kiwi fruit was supposed to be.

 Mind you, the only time she's seen one is in this board book. I am ashamed to say I've never read the tale.

What do you think. . if you squint. . . ?

Details of my tools & toys can be found on this page.
