This is so cute!
I love your mouse LB. Well done ! 😀
The mouse is not my invention, it is from Bagus of the MSC Divina. He’s in the video.
That is the only mouse I’d welcome in my house!
Very sweet.
THE MOUSE IS ADORABLE!
Adorable! ❤ Great job! I also love to work with my hands, and create things from whatever I have around.
