      Ya, I think in I'm going to stick with the big octopus and small bowl. But I've added a little friend to the top shelf.

          @stringfellowart I like how simple this is now. I wouldn't add too many details!!

            "We're gonna need a bigger bowl!" Ha!! I also like the bigger octopus. I think it tells more of a story--and speaks to the character of the little girl...

              The big octopus is the better choice, he seems to have a personality and the way he is hiding is much more fun

                I realized that the mop was competing with the octopus, so I've dropped it back. I think I should be able to finish up the last of the details tonight. Fingers crossed

                    This is looking really good! They are going to have a super hard time deciding a winner this month.

                      I think I'm done, but I will let it sit for a few days and take another look.

                        @stringfellowart looks good! Having the lighter jars at the top seem to give the upper half of the piece more weight, also i'm glad you kept a big octopus 🙂
