What to do with my Yo Yos
 

I'm in search of actual craft/quilt patterns for my many yo yo's. I find lots of ideas for using them but the only pattern I've found at this point is for some really cute owls. Can anyone help?

I remember clowns made from yo-yos when my offspring were babies. You thread elastic through the middle and sew them together. Forget what we used for the head (perhaps a ping-pong ball painted), hands and feet. The body was made with larger sized ones. Have been thinking of doing them again as my DD is planning the occasional weekendstall this year.

The yo-yo dolls that I remember had some molded plastic faces. If you google "yo-yo" dolls you will find many ideas. I saw one of these dolls at a flea market a few months ago when visiting with a friend, reminded me of all the ones that her mom made! Sweet memories!

I saw them used as wall art. I want to try it and it's on my to-do list.
Take a piece of canvas and paint it, then glue yo-yo's on the canvas and cover the
face of the canvas in yo-yo's.

Remember google is your friend. Try looking for uses for yo yos.

I remember the clowns. I even saw a lion made of yo yo's, but no pattern. Flowergurl: I have seen that wall hanging. It is neat. I'll try googling uses for yo yo's instead of yo yo patterns or crafts. Thanks

I would search on Pinterest or Google Images to see something that inspires you:
