Lemonwood Clock



I'm so excited to be a part of the team! Thanks for allowing me to join.
My name is Rebekah Robson and my shop is Lemonwood Clock ( http://www.etsy.com/shop/lemonwoodclock ). I sell handmade toys and gifts. Right now my shop features my sock monsters. I also have a line of dolls I hope to post soon.
I sew a lot and do acrylic paintings. My other projects and interests can be found on my blog.
In the past, my shop only consisted of my paintings. But since the birth of my 5 month old son, I became passionate about making toys that are safe and fun for him. He loved his first sock monster so much I made him another one. And then another... and well, making sock monsters is addictive! And that is the story of how Lemonwood Clock transitioned into a toy shop :)

Monster on the Move

As the days get shorter and there's less gardening to take up my time, I can shift back into monster-making mode. Soon I'll be adding more to my etsy shop but first I wanted to set one monster free in the wild:

prepped_for_toy_society

The Toy Society started in Australia but has spread worldwide -- the idea is to drop the toys where kids (or grownups) will find them and take them home. This monster, Glumpy, will be my first drop but I have also signed up for the worldwide Christmas Toy Drop. Check my Flickr stream to see where Glumpy was dropped and who found her!

Ochibo Painting!


Ochibo just received the absolute-coolest painting ever. Seriously, it is so amazing. And it was free. The Ochibos liked it so much that one Ochibo has decided to go live with the artist, Ali Spagnola. He leaves today for his new home, he is so excited!

New Pattern at Ochibo!

So danged cute! These little guys are perfect for keeping mosquitos out of your house. And, of course, since they hang out with Ochibos, they are extra smart!
