Nest and Creature Classes!!!

To clarify, each class is only one time frame. For example, the whole nest class is taught from 2-4. There are three times offered, it is not a three session class.

May Brain Freeze!

Hopefully this friend will help thaw out my captive brain meats. It's been a while since I last posted. It's been a flurry of small radish hats, nests and class set up. Please stay tuned for an announcement for classes in Olympia. Super fun and super exciting!

Poppinjay Silent Auction

These fine friends are on silent auction at the lovely store, Popinjay. It is located in downtown Olympia at 414 Capitol Way S. All of the proceeds go to Monarch Children's Justice & Advocacy Center. They will be on auction until May 1st.

Thanks for the Great Arts Walk

 The Sweaterbear and I would like to thank all of those who came out to Olympia's Spring Arts Walk this past weekend. It was lovely to see all of the smiling faces and hear words of encouragement. I had a wonderful time and hope you did too. It was a beautiful weekend and a good show.

Flying Bunnies

Flying Bunnies! This bun is now hanging out with Geita. And is flying bun #1.

Spring Nests

These nests are made out of recycled scraps of cloth and clothes. There are bits of lace and ribbon, plastic bags, bells, beads and stones in them. The little birds are made and stuffed with scrap fabric. I like to call them wish nests. I have one where I put old fortune cookies and little pieces of paper with my hopes and dreams so they can incubate and come true.

Katsters

These are the Kasters. Half cat half monster. If you can't be with the one you love, love the one you're with. Personified.

Sock Monkeys in Boise

 Long ago I used to make monkeys. I stopped and then they got very popular, go figure. I have been reluctant to  make too many more but every so often I have an urge. Then they need clothes and hats. These three were snapped up and live in Boise, ID. They were so fun to make that I might have to make a whole host more.

Monster Cousins

These are Sweaterbears' cousins the Mstrs. They are handmade from recycled sweaters and the scraps I save from other creatures. They are for sale at the Olympia Co Ops and at some shows that I go to. They run in price between $15- $20. Please email me if you need a little more monster in your life.
