I've never seen a real toad so I wasn't sure. It turns out the warty skin of toads can vary from olive greens to orange browns. It depends on the soil where they live as to what colour they are. I guess the soil in the woodland where Toad comes from has caused his skin to turn olive green.12Createhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12866346231581607726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6700495780551372004.post-86764964761819122172015-04-27T16:32:26.446+12:002015-04-27T16:32:26.446+12:00LOL.

And they seem to be expressing a desire to have the rest of him otherwise he is just another no-body! hahaha<br />His little red wagon of fungi is real cute and I am sure that he is anxious to hop to it, and get his business off the ground because that is the way to get ahead in the forest. Well, I guess he already IS a-head, isn't he? :)<br />Okay, enough with the puns. <br />I love the embroidery books and hope that you will be able to put them to good use. I embroidered once when I was 17 and that was it! Two pillow case that took me<br /> FOREVER.

I thought Toads were more brown than green... at least the varieties we have here are! LOL! But either way, he will be a great proprietor for your Toad Stall.... he already looks like he is ready to sell his fungi and bugs to the first visitor! LOL! Those DMC books are a wonderful find.... the patterns for making borders should come in very useful somewhere! Especially now that copying is so easy many of those patterns could be reproduced and used on mini walls! I know you have a great collection of old wall papers too!
