Three tiny cranes

I love things that are tiny. Little cookies, dollhouse furniture, petits fours, baby socks, and these itty bitty cranes.

My brother and sister-in-law were visiting a few weeks ago for our first BBQ of the season and my husband made a paper airplane for my niece. While we were seeing who could throw it the farthest, my brother started making cranes out of a scrap piece of paper. He made one, then a much smaller one, and not to be outdone, my sister-in-law made the tiniest one I have ever seen. It was about 1/4 the size of a watch face. I couldn't believe it. Here are the cute little cranes.

first there was one...then a smaller one...

it was hard to see how small they were so here is the end of a pen to compare

this one was about the size of half of a watch face...I didn't think a smaller one could be made

...but I was wrong! My sister-in-law has nimble fingers...

OMG, look how tiny hers is!

small, smaller, smallest

impressive!


Bye for now...
