In Which Bob Takes A Stand

So here is the puppet stand which Bob made. The base is beautiful top quality ply [from some offcuts donated to The Shed] the rods are leftover from the Pikler Triangle which Bob built for George four years ago. Bob stamped the base with the logo of The Shed Project.
We went over to Swaffham on Tuesday morning, to present it to Tim-the-Trustee. Behind them you can see a little niche in the wall, painted black.
The puppets fit beautifully! Sue, the other volunteer present, said they had a school group in last week, who really enjoyed playing with them.

They do look good in this little space with their own spotlight! Bob and I have enjoyed collaborating on the project [and Rosie made a lovely thankyou card for the Museum too, with the picture of her in the garden holding Bastet]
