ok when it comes to 'boy fabric' I'm never sure what people mean

there's a lot of sports themed fabric, and then there's camouflage, but I don't see too many ppl ordering those types of prints
also cars and motorcycles, but again, I don't see too many hammocks ordered in those prints

it seems for male rats, people like dinosaurs, monsters and um, skulls?
is that right?
give me an idea of what you consider a boy's print, ok, because I just naturally gravitate towards girl's stuff- primarily flowers and butterflies, actually LOL
so it's hard for me to choose other things.


I like camouflage, dinosaurs, skulls, pirates, or boy colors green, purple, blue, etc - I try to stay away from animals dogs, cats, etc
 
OK got some hammocks done, some just need grommets, and then there's a pile that's very close to be finished.
Sorry for the delay.

here's what I was able to photograph before the batteries on my camera died- They are recharging now so hopefully I'll have the rest photographed later on.

I also have a bunch of bunk beds and a few triple bunks made, and other misc hammies almost finished

sorry I'm so slow lately :p

I got some boy fabric by popular demand, but there's not a ton of it, so before I go and cut it up for hammocks, I thought I'd try to find out what hammocks ppl want

here are the new boy prints:
camo with skulls

dinosaurs with itty bitty footprints, pebbles and ferns, one with a yellow background, the other with a green background

I have coordinating fleece (blues, gray, gold, green, brown- dark and light brown, black, etc)

I apologize for the delay in getting photos up. I think I've dropped my camera one too many times, it keeps shutting itself off, even with fresh batteries. It's also been pretty well chewed by the boyz :rolleyes2:

OK this isn't everything; there are some more almost finished but not ready for photos (and as you'll see, these ones in the photos still need grommets)


I hope this link works, I put the photos on flikr

ah I"ve been working on some hammies just for you, as I posted on your Rescued Rats FB page:

"Made these Monster hammocks for Peggy's Rescued Rats. 8 hammocks in all, four them are "monster sized" flats for her monster sized cage sets ups. Can anyone help with the cost of postage to get these to her? (approx $10) And if anyone can spare a couple of dollars towards the cost of materials, that would be awesome. I love making hammocks for Peggy's rescue but alas, am quite behind on my own bills, otherwise I wouldn't ask. THANKS! and have you hugged *your* little monsters today?"

our EDK just sent me the money for the postage!!


and I am working on some assorted all fleece flats for you, if you're interested.

If you *really* only want flats, I can take the bunk bed, triple bunk etc out of the set and sell them to someone else, and replace those with flats for you, but I think these style hammocks don't get chewed too much.

I'm just hoping to get enough money to cover materials, which for the 8 hammocks made so far is roughly $20 because I hit a couple of good sales for the monster print and a free shipping plus 15% off sale on the fleece.
 
I can use the bunk bed with the girls like nora, i like her to have something with a top since she has the tilt. If you need anything let me know. I can chip in money as well.
 
ok first off, a great big THANK YOU to EDK and anita1216 for their generous donations to help offset the cost of shipping and materials for a big hammock haul being sent to Peggy's (Hopefloat) Rescued Rats in IN.
there's 16 hammocks in all, and some of these are MONSTER size (which is why I went with the monster print LOL) for her monster sized cage. Others are small for the bunch of babies she just got in, and there's some "normal" sized ones as well <g>


here's a few photos- I still need to grommet a half dozen of them and then find a poly mailer big enough for them all lol

I guess I can only put in a link? here's the pile o'hammies

thanks!

I am working on a hammock bundle for Shelagh's rescues and hospice rats, if anyone can spare a few dollars (or a few ppl spare a buck each or so?) to pay for the cost of shipping and maybe offset the cost of materials a little that would be VERY much appreciated, thanks!

Shelagh has a lot of smaller cages and I try to make a special size hammock for those.
 
*Scratches head* Hmm, can we no longer send post specific pms? Anyhoo, is that dino triple bunk for $15 in all green with forest green fleece
https://flic.kr/p/mvq2YF still available? I'd love to snap that up!

Oh, and check you paypal for something else.

yes that hammock is available!
I think you're right about the PMs now, they won't show the post that you're commenting on. :/

I still haven't found my address book since moving last month, so I'll need your address again ok

Rhapsody, you can send specific PM's click on dspch911 above my avatar, that is where the option is!!

a great big THANK YOU jorats for offering to cover the shipping to Shelagh and great big THANK YOU to rhapsody, who beat her to it :dancing:

there's 16 hammocks in Shelagh's bundle so far, with a few more being worked on, I *just* ran out of grommets, though so her bundle wont' be shipped out til I get more.

I might need a tiny bit more for shipping once the bundle is all set to go, I'll let you know.

the rescued ratties really need these, THANK YOU ALL SO VERY MUCH!!!!
