I received an email yesterday that made me smile from ear to ear. ‘I loved your giraffe so much I blogged about it’ wrote Ola of One Million Giraffes, having named my sunflower giraffe as her 234th Giraffe of the Day. Back in September when I uploaded my photo it joined 267,350 other giraffes and today the figure stands at 547,792. If you’d like to help Ola reach 1,000,000 there’s just one simple rule: you have to create your giraffe with your own hands (without using a computer). If your creation features more than one giraffe it counts for as many giraffes as featured. Like the addition of a baby giraffe making two. 
I love the way this project has sparked people’s imaginations all across the world. Will you be creating a giraffe that’s one in a million? 
Lili Tupili’s knitted giraffes, Fernanda’s cork giraffe face, Grobuonis’s toothpaste giraffe, Funky Lunch Man’s giraffe sandwich, , Sunni’s champagne top giraffe, Gunnar’s 13 foot snow giraffe, Ingvill’s honey giraffe, Bjorn’s matchstick giraffe
Nip it in the bud 
Oh, wow! They’re all so awesome and creative! I love it.
What a brilliant idea!
I’m going to get me thinking…
LOVE this, thanks for sharing it x
Splendid and inspiring.
Jaime – it’s a very cheering sight, especially when you’re already a giraffe fan like me
Mr P – glad it’s tickled your creative fancy. I’m sure you could cook up some giraffe-y delight
Anita – and I just know K has a giraffe or ten up her sleeve
MC – ain’t it just
Alas, I could never come up with something that original. I remember your fabulous sunflower giraffe and sure love the other ones too. They are all so imaginative ! (Although the snow sculpture reminds me of Nessie :P).
I love your sunflower giraffe and pleased to see it is getting some kudos – I would love to make a sandwich giraffe like that one in your pics – it is so cute – thanks for putting me onto this site
Hi! Cool that you posted my champaraff on your blog!
I just wanted to say that Ola is a boy and Giraffes rule!!!
