An Ode to Autumn

How much do we love Autumn? Let us count the ways!

1: The temperatures are cooler, we don't have to wear clothes! Worgies do not understand the human need for clothing anyway, but are compelled to wear pants when it is hot outside. Don't ask! It's a monster thing!

2: The trees are about to change color! While mere human eyes might delight to the color show, imagine what all of that looks like to a Cyke Tyke? Even better, imagine what that looks like to Cyke Tyke Mike? While on a hike? Or on a Trike!

3: Curly Hair is Cool Again! Zombies with curly hair suffer all summer. It's bad enough having an insatiable hunger for brainy snacks; the curly-headed undead have to deal with thick mattes of sweat producing hair, too!

Soft Kritures - When clay meets fur

Second Wave of Soft Kritures will be launched today! I've made a video so you can see better what is a Soft Kriture :)

I will be listing a new one everyday on etsy for 14 days around 6 p.m US time.
Why 14 days? Because of February 14th, Valentine's day. Its a good gift for your valentine.

The soft kritures will featuring:
- Cusom packaging
- Glow in the dark eyes
- A tag
- A hanger
- Some of them have piercings!
- Free fridge Magnet

Each one is one of a kind to preserve their singularity.

Buy them on etsy

Pikki & Kippi the black athletic creatures!

Name: Pikki & Kippi
What I do: Look for high places to play
Task: Train with others for a possible escape
Likes: To play badminton
Body: Lightweight, small, dark skin and fleshy red lips
Ability: Good jumper
Food: Plants

They do everything together and usually Kippi carries Pikki above, he doesn't mind because he knows Kippi would do the same for him, this is called totem behavior.
These two athletic Kritures, since the day they have found racquets, they know that they were meant to play badminton. The problem is that one of them is a lefty and other one is a right hander, so one of them have a huge tendency to lose games. This is a good way to know who's who when both are on the ground.

Where did the year go?

Wow. What a crazy year! We started doing shows 13 months ago with our creepy little Grimmleigh's dolls, and we really had no idea what was coming! We're not quitting our day jobs by any means, but people seem to like what we have been doing. The best part has been watching people start to "get" what we're doing!

Being part of Monster Etsy has been awesome, too. There has been a lot of camaraderie and support out there, and we really appreciate it. Even though we haven't been very active for a while, the support we found here has been a large part of why we have been able to become more active with our local craft scene, start a craft co-op, and get the word out about the hand-crafts movement.

Whatever the years ahead bring, we just wanted to say thanks to everyone at Monster Etsy, and encourage everyone to keep doing what you are doing, supporting each other, and being a great team!

Derfuls

This is Onyx Derful. She is a sprightly friend filled with music and hugs. She is a commission for some one who wanted teal and pink. And Tahdah!
Derfuls like warm soft places and quiet moments. They tend to travel in packs because if one Derful is good, many derfuls are fantastic!

Clay and Fur Creatures - Kriture

Soft Kritures are the union between clay Kritures and plush. They are totally malleable, and are prepared for children to play or to hang in your car, as they don't break so easily. Each one has a Kriture sewed tag in the back and instead of glued, the clay is sewed into the fabric so it lasts for ever.

The eyes on this one glows in the dark.
Each one is OOAK and have 3.5" (9cm) height, 2.4" (6 cm) weight and is less than 30gr.


Here you have some of the pics, visit the store for more info about this creatures and more pics! :D

The wallet caddies are done!

I made two of them. they are hand built from fine porcelain and high fired, so they are super sturdy. The wallet goes in the gaping maw and rings or keys on the tail or horns... have put one of them in the shop and maybe the next one up after the upcoming Renegade Craft fairs in LA and SF.

Activity for children!

Hi there, monster lovers!

I'm receiving children's drawings for an illustration, so if you know one that is 7 years old or less, please visit this awesome link for more info :).
The owner of the chosen picture will receive a print with the final illustration signed by me :).
I promise the finish art will be fantastic

So give a pencil to children and make them do art before they get too old!
