Harold

Harold is the second in my series of slumber party monsters.

He's wearing peach and white striped pajamas and he's completely huggable.The slumber party series is designed to help children have sleepovers basically. Sometimes it can be scary to stay at someone else's house for the first time and a little friend that you can cling to when you're falling sleep can be very comforting.

Harold is 9" tall and I wouldn't recommend him for children younger than 3 or 4 because of his button eyes.



Gus is also a part of that series.

Fljat

Fljat's name comes from the previously mentioned Scrabulous game.

Fljat is another in my series of small monsters, measuring only 7" tall. His small size is no indication of his smarts. He's got the biggest brains of any monster I've made. His favorite book from our monster book shelf is the "Natural History of Monsters" by Gossamer (the big red monster from the Bugs Bunny cartoons). But we're running out of books for him to read. Pretty soon, he'll have nothing left to learn from us and he'll become bored. Bored monsters are dangerous monsters.

Wizang is Finished

My girlfriend and I are playing a Scrabulous game with the goal of creating monster names. So, I used that pool of creativity to find a name for the monster I was working on yesterday. I'm excited about Wizang because I used a new type of stuffing for him called Soft Touch Polyfil Supreme by Fairfield. It's sooooo soft.

Anyway, here is Wizang.


Once I've posted him on Etsy I'll provide a link.

Poor Pflur

Last night, Jon picked up a couple of gyros for us from Pinnochios, with a side order of roasted potatoes.



Pflur was so excited, but sadly all she could do was stare at them. Her mouth is sewn shut.

Sketchy Monster

Here is a sketch of the new monster I'm working on - slowly.

No Longer For Sale

I decided to keep this one at home. I took her off the market. I named her Pflur and I gave her a very sweet personality - she really likes potatoes.

Anyway, I washed her today and one of the socks I used to make her started pilling and she doesn't look so great anymore. But she is clean.

So, Pflur is going to stay home with Jon and me.

Mmmmmmmm. Mmmmmmm. Gone.

This morning, I received notice that I've sold Mmmmmmm - pastel striped sock monster. Tomorrow, I'll make the arrangements that will send him to his new home in Arizona. Hopefully, he won't be too uncomfortable. After all, he's gotten used to the swampy, humid, summer weather of New York City. The dry Arizona air might make him feel parched.
