Jumping jack necklaces

Here are a couple of my jumping jack necklaces - particularly suitable for this wintery season!

First there is Jack the snowman who is so happy that he just wants to jump up and down. However, he is a little unfit so he needs a helping hand. If you pull on the blue thread, his arms and legs go up and down! What a happy snowman Jack is.


And secondly, there is Pete the penguin. As you know, penguins can't fly, so when you pull on the little fish, either one wing or the other goes up but he just can't seem to take off!  But he does try hard!  One time you'll pull on the fish and his right wing goes up, then he'll try with his left wing, but he just has to adjust to the fact that he can't fly - even with a little help.

 
 

He looks as though he is waving to you instead however!!!

Hope my little friends make you happy!

Pete the Penguin

I made Pete the penguin quite a while ago....but I've never really made him into anything. He's a little too large for a necklace...so I put him on a cord but I need to come up with something better for him...having the chain doesn't make him good as a key ring as he might get tangled up..... Maybe he should be a bookmark or.....

any ideas?

He's another jumping jack as you can see:


But as you know, penguins can't fly, so when you pull on the fish below him, either his left wing goes up:


or the right one goes way up high......but never the two together so he just can't fly :-(. Poor little Pete.

What do you think he should be?
