Back in <a title="September" href="http://gardenersvoice.com/category/september/">September</a> 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. <a href="http://nipitinthebud.files.wordpress.com/2009/10/sunflower-giraffe-family-copy.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1726" title="sunflower giraffe family copy" src="http://nipitinthebud.files.wordpress.com/2009/10/sunflower-giraffe-family-copy.jpg?w=458&h=533" alt="" width="458" height="533" /></a></p> <p>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? <a href="http://nipitinthebud.files.wordpress.com/2010/01/mosaic-giraffes.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-2705" title="MOSAIC - giraffes" src="http://nipitinthebud.files.wordpress.com/2010/01/mosaic-giraffes.jpg?w=455&h=303" alt="" width="455" height="303" /></a></p> <p><a href="http://nipitinthebud.files.wordpress.com/2010/01/mosaic-giraffe-x2.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-2710" title="MOSAIC - giraffe x2" src="http://nipitinthebud.files.wordpress.com/2010/01/mosaic-giraffe-x2.jpg?w=455&h=227" alt="" width="455" height="227" /></a><a href="http://www.onemilliongiraffes.com/?id=40335" >Lili </a><a href="http://www.onemilliongiraffes.com/?id=40335" >Tupili’s knitted giraffes</a>, <a href="http://www.onemilliongiraffes.com/?id=23028" >Fernanda’s cork giraffe face</a>, <a href="http://olahelland.net/giraffes/?id=30319" >Grobuonis’s toothpaste giraffe</a>, <a href="http://olahelland.net/giraffes/?id=39355" >Funky Lunch Man’s giraffe sandwich</a>, , <a href="http://olahelland.net/giraffes/?id=14350" >Sunni’s champagne top giraffe</a>, <a href="http://olahelland.net/giraffes/?id=40133" >Gunnar’s 13 foot snow giraffe</a>, <a href="http://www.onemilliongiraffes.com/?id=14695" >Ingvill’s honey giraffe</a>, <a href="http://www.onemilliongiraffes.com/?id=12491" >Bjorn’s matchstick giraffe</a></p> <p>Filed under: <a href='http://nipitinthebud.wordpress.com/category/being-creative/'>being creative</a> Tagged: <a href='http://nipitinthebud.wordpress.com/tag/wildlife/'>wildlife</a> <a rel="nofollow" href="http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/gocomments/nipitinthebud.wordpress.com/2702/"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/comments/nipitinthebud.wordpress.com/2702/" /></a> <a rel="nofollow" href="http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/godelicious/nipitinthebud.wordpress.com/2702/"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/delicious/nipitinthebud.wordpress.com/2702/" /></a> <a rel="nofollow" href="http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/gostumble/nipitinthebud.wordpress.com/2702/"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/stumble/nipitinthebud.wordpress.com/2702/" /></a> <a rel="nofollow" href="http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/godigg/nipitinthebud.wordpress.com/2702/"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/digg/nipitinthebud.wordpress.com/2702/" /></a> <a rel="nofollow" href="http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/goreddit/nipitinthebud.wordpress.com/2702/"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/reddit/nipitinthebud.wordpress.com/2702/" /></a> <img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=nipitinthebud.wordpress.com&blog=8362095&post=2702&subd=nipitinthebud&ref=&feed=1" /></p> <div style="display: none">VN:F [1.6.3_896]</div><div class="ratingblock"><div class="ratingblock "><div class="ratingheader ">Rate this Article</div><div class="ratingstars "><div id="article_rater_27590" class="ratepost gdsr-soft gdsr-size-24"><div class="starsbar gdsr-size-24"><div class="gdouter gdheight"><div id="gdr_vote_a27590" style="width: 0px;" class="gdinner gdheight"></div><div id="gdr_stars_a27590" class="gdsr_rating_as"><a id="gdsrX27590X5X0XaXarticle_rater_27590Xarticle_loader_27590X10X24" title="5 / 5" class="s5" rel="nofollow"></a><a id="gdsrX27590X4X0XaXarticle_rater_27590Xarticle_loader_27590X10X24" title="4 / 5" class="s4" rel="nofollow"></a><a id="gdsrX27590X3X0XaXarticle_rater_27590Xarticle_loader_27590X10X24" title="3 / 5" class="s3" rel="nofollow"></a><a id="gdsrX27590X2X0XaXarticle_rater_27590Xarticle_loader_27590X10X24" title="2 / 5" class="s2" rel="nofollow"></a><a id="gdsrX27590X1X0XaXarticle_rater_27590Xarticle_loader_27590X10X24" title="1 / 5" class="s1" rel="nofollow"></a></div></div></div></div><div id="article_loader_27590" style="display: none; width: 120px; " class="ratingloader article"><div class="loader flower " style="height: 24px"><div class="loaderinner" style="padding-top: 2px">please wait...</div></div></div></div><div class="ratingtext "><div id="gdr_text_a27590">Rating: 0.0/<strong>5</strong> (0 votes cast)</div></div></div></div>
