Evil?

So we all know that I have made quite a few little rat Christmas ornaments. And we all know I make zombies. So of course I'll be making zombie Christmas ornaments! My first one is a snowman (which I had a suggestion/request for). He's pretty tame, as far a zombies go.


I think he's kinda cute . . . . I'm also thinking of doing zombie reindeer. Thoughts?

And on an unrelated note, do you know how freaking hard it is to put eyedrops in the eyes of a 2 1/2 year old?! Good LORD! Poor Ayden has pink eye (again), and it takes nothing short of a miracle to get those damn drops in. Seriously. Jeremy (my hubby), sitting on his chest, knees on his hands and holding his head steady, while I pry his eyes open to administer said drops. Only to be foiled by him snapping them shut as the drop falls. Ugh.

HOLY SHIT IT'S COLD!!

That's what this guy is sayin' ------------------>

Yeah, it was damn fridgid in Colorado this weekend. We didn't get any snow, but had bloody cold weather and a bit of an ice storm. Our poor Halloween decorations were so frosty!

See the fog in the background? It didn't go away all day on Sunday. I think our high was 17 degrees. Oy. But hey, THE BRONCOS BEAT THE PATRIOTS!!!!! Suck it, Patriots!

And don't forget to enter my giveaway!!!

Squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Giveaway Time!

Like I mentioned earlier in the week, I'm having a giveaway to celebrate having over 100 sales! Who am I giving away? Gunther the rat!

Yes, little Gunther needs a new home!

Awesome Cami! How do I enter?

I'm glad you asked! It's very simple:

1. Leave a comment telling me what animal you'd like to see as a zombie. This counts as one entry.

2. Blog this giveaway and leave a comment telling me you blogged (with a link, of course). This counts as 2 entries.

The maximum number of entries for any one person is 3. Please leave a way for me to contact you as well (email, etsy, etc).

The giveaway starts now (Sunday, Oct. 11) and runs through next Saturday (Oct. 17). The winner will be chosen by a random number generator. Good luck!

I got an award!

I woke up this morning unsure of what to blog about. I've been feeling quite uninspired lately. The thing is, I have tons of ideas. I've just been having a hard time executing them. It's a case of what to do first. There's too much to choose from so I do nothing. (both blogging and crafting).

But . . . . .I got an award! From the fabulous Sycamore Moon Studios! It's the Over the Top Blog Award!

Feature Friday - A Little Stranger

Today's featured shop is A Little Stranger. I enjoy unique plushies, and this shop is unique! Her plushies are terribly cute and a little surreal.

I love this little "bear". She is five way jointed and features a hand-cast, hand-painted resin face.

And we definitely can't go wrong with this one! It's a zombie!!

Bunny-slug, anyone?

She also has her artwork available!

Make sure you check out A Little Stranger!

We need votes!

Many of you know that I'm a member of the Etsy Owls Street Team (stands for Off the Wall Ladies). We're quite an ecclectic and (in)sane bunch!

Spitoon!

Anyway, each month we have a challenge. October's challenge was something you can either wear or carry while trick or treating. All of the challenge pieces are up on the Owls blog, and we need your votes! So take a gander and vote for your favorite!

Maybe your favorite happens to be my severed bunny head trick or treat bag . . . . . jus' sayin'.

So click here . . . . . . . . . . . . or maybe here

or down over here.

My, what big teeth you have . . .

I broke 100 sales!

I'm going to gloat for just a minute. Today I had my 102nd sale! I'm stoked! My shop is doing better than I ever imagined! I've been open for 10 months (my 1 year Etsyversary is in December), and I figured that I'd have 20 or so sales by this time.

The fact that people love my plushies enough to buy them sends warm fuzzies all through me! Yay for warm fuzzies!! And yay for all of you, who have supported and encouraged me. I appreciate it more than you know. And to celebrate I'll be having a giveaway starting this weekend, so stay tuned!!
My icky dog, with her icky grin, showing her appreciation!!
