Ginko the Glow in the Dark Bear!

Posted by: LOVEANDASANDWICH

I'd been meaning to buy glow in the dark thread for a long time now, and I finally got some last week!  I made one of my sold Grizzly Bear kid designs into a big, neon green, glow-in-the-dark pillow!
 
The boyfriend, best friend & I modeled it. :D

It's so biggg! 20 inches across.  Makes an awesome pillow. :)

& here's what it looks like in the dark! :)


Also! The wonderful Effunia has pictures up from the opening of Plush You! There's some ridiculously amazing work there, and see if you can spot mine! ;)  http://www.flickr.com/photos/effunia/sets/72157624713100181/with/4939324571/

& I'll end this with a song I can't stop listening to recentlyyyy

Plush You! LA & other work

Posted by: LOVEANDASANDWICH

Finished my monsters for the Plush You! show opening TOMORROW NIGHT! in Los Angeles!  More info about the show here: http://www.munkyking.com/gallery_events.php?id=112  I wanted to make three but I spent so much time on the big yellow guy I ran out of time :(
He's got six eyes, and little felt flowers on the front, back & a few on the tentacles.
He's haaaauuuuge!  Biggest monstroctopus I've made so far I think. (:


& here's some other custom orders I've done recently!
Two Nannerpuses with pancakes!  I also put them up as made to order in my shop, and you can get as many pancakes as you want with it!

Love yeti!  Requested for a wedding present for Laura of PronouncedYou based off of her yeti character. :)


Two koalas!  Both requested at around the same time by different people.  Top one was for a "Sleepy blue love koala" & the one at the bottom is for an "evil drop bear koala"
I saved the pattern for them so I'm also taking custom orders if you wish! :)


Campin/Beach trip!

Posted by: LOVEANDASANDWICH

Part of the reason I haven't updated my blog in awhile is because I was busy having an awesome campin' trip with these awesome people!

My two favorite babes in the world came, my best friend (middle), & my little sister! (right)  We all spent our days at the beach, and our nights in the woods! 

Went swimmin, sand castle makin, drinkin & wiffle ball playin on the beach in the beginning of Cape Cod!


Only downside to this trip was right after this lovely family photo, my friends yanked me out with all their man strength from the sand & I heard a loud POP, that was my ankle.  It felt okay until the next day when it blew up and swelled and now it hurts to turn.  OH WELL.  Worth it.

Almost got kicked out on our last night from being loud & obnoxious until the sun came up.  We had faced our tents together like a little two part tent home & couldn't stop laughing & giggling until the park man came down & yelled at us to stop "laughing like chickens with our heads cut off!"
<3


I ALSO have been lax on updating because I'm moving (Yes, again!) in 9 days!  To Boston, MA & I couldn't be more pumped.  My apartment costs a lot more for a lot less space but it makes up for it in that there are things to do, and many friends around to hang out with!

Soooooo I'll probably be doing another moving sale within the next few days.  Won't be getting rid of as much stuff as before but there will be a good amount.
