Cereal Monster - Purple Plushie Creature from my Pantry



The artist's description:
Fall is here and now they are wandering in from the cool night air. I keep finding monsters hiding in dark places. I found this one hiding in my pantry inside a box of cereal. The kids totally freaked out when they tried to pour a bowl of Lucky Charms and out popped a purple monster!

She may look vicious but as long as she has some munchies nearby she's perfectly harmless and loves to cuddle.

This monster is stitched entirely of fabric with no loose parts, measures about 5 inches tall by 5.5 inches wide.


To minimize suffering, this monster will be shipped Priority Mail in a sturdy box for fast "humane" delivery.

That thing is just made of win- the sheer idea of it AND it's purple...

I'm not sure it could be any better.

Keyword "BLACKBOARD"

Only 98 items have the keyword of blackboard and, well, most of them are blackboards- but I did find this gem:



Artist's description:
"IN THE DEEP"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In The deep there are many sea dwellers

humans have yet to see.

The MerAngel is a mythical blend of sweetness and savior.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


I actually really like how well the artwork was done- very vibrant colors and somewhat unconventionally blended subject material!

Keyword "SEND"

The keyword send brought up 381 results- many of which were "ready to send" and "send me your photo and I'll attach it to _________ ". There was also a smattering of various "send in the clowns" type of items, but clowns are just too creepy to feature.

However, there were some gems so today I've got two- one very pretty piece of jewelry and one very odd piece of art...



The decription on this pieces is:

"Send some love - the world needs it!"

This wooden domino is giving the message of love to the world. It is embellished with a polymerclay heart and a 'LOVE' charm. The stamp represents the world as well as the idea to 'send it on'.

It's a very nicely done piece and very reasonably priced to boot!

Onto the odd...

There's always something a tad bit creepy about handmade art dolls and this one is no exception...



Description:

It is hard to give one's love to another when they are not with you. You send your love...do they get it, was your love lost in transit, why have they not sent their love back? We guard our hearts against such pain, placing barriers around it for protection, but, we give our love away nonetheless. This angel sends her love, but her barriers stay up around her heart, just in case. She gazes off into the distance, longing for her missing love, and wondering when he will return?

The slightly dead look in the doll's eyes doesn't really help matters either...

Keyword "EQUIPMENT"

This is the weirdest item I could find in the keyword search for "equipment"- 361 results.



Here is part of the artist's description:

Miles is felted in black with his traditional favorite blue coveralls held on with one felt button. He is wearing a removeable faux straw hat made from wool with a waxed linen cord to keep the wind from blowing it off. It has convenient holes to allow his ears to be comfortable. He has a huge toothy grin and green eyes with glass bead pupils.

That's right- Miles... he comes pre-named just for you!

The best part is actually looking at the key words selected: art, fiber art, needle felted, soft sculpture, animals, cat, tractor, nostalgia, farming equipment, collectible, folk art

I'm going to go out on a limb and say if your crafting piece requires the key words "cat" and "tractor" perhaps you should go the extra mile and throw in "weird" and "ohmygodseriouslyacatonatractor". But that's just me...

Keyword "COOLING"

This is my favorite item in the keyword search for "cooling"- 135 results.



Here's the artist's description:
Description
A deep red orange bead is returning to solidity from a molten state because of it's juxtaposition with a clear 'ice cube' bead. It looks like a perpetual cohabitation of fire with ice, bound by vermilion and copper wire.

The ring is a size 6, by the way.

Apart from the obvious creativity in the description, the ring IS quite cool looking.
