Tiki Monsters

New Pillows for your tiki room! Summer IS here, and that means it's time for festive cocktail parties, if you ask me! These guys will help you prep! Go see them at the Art and Craft of Mimi Kirchner, where you can also find some handsome foxes to invite along as well!

Yermits!

Drunk Retired Russian Circus Bears from Yermits! These guys are so awesome that once again I find it necessary to quote from the shop description. So here you go, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

"He comes with only one bad habit - the habit of all drunk bears, the daemon liquor. Just leave the bottles with him and he'll be fine. He doesn't move around a lot or require a great deal of maintenance. Once, he was a Great Bear - part of the Famous Biercheski Brothers Flying Acrobatic Circus Troupe. He was In Demand wherever he went. Now, he is content to remember those times. He comes dressed in a cozy dark brown wool sweater vest with a tourquoise patterned shirt and greyish black pants. He will arrive with 2 fabric bottles of alcohol that fit neatly into, or out of, his vest pockets."

Merbunnies and Friends!

These actual photographs of the elusive Merbunny in it's natural habitat, come to us from Sepia Lepus! I was so excited when I found them. I had heard about Merbunnies, and I caught part of a documentary about them on the television once, but those were just the ones in captivity. These here are the real deal! Go to Sepia Lepus now to see all the wonders!

My Friend Monster Creatures!

I sent hillyhill (my mentor in all things needle-felted) on a monster scouting trip to Canada (she called it a "vacation," or something...) and look what she found! My Friend Monster creatures!

Now, I would love to adopt any of these guys, but I gotta say, I am particularly enamored of the pajama-eating monster, and I think he would fit my lifestyle perfectly! I know I would have no problem keeping him fed, since, as I've mentioned before, pajamas just happen to be my all time favorite apparel! Hmmm, sounds like another match made in heaven to me! Thanks guys, great teamwork!

Clothmoth Creatures!

Two headed squirrels, piggies, and kittens, oh my! These wonderful critters can be found at Clothmoth! I think they should be the official Evelyn Evelyn creatures, don't you?! I wonder how we can make that happen? Ideas, anyone?

Violet Pie Creatures!

Violet Pie is a wonderful shop we visited several months ago, on our previous hunt for catmonsters. We stopped by again on our most recent catmonster quest, and look what we found: stunning Mark Ryden inspired creatures! These girls are so exquisite, I think I might see if I could request MY favorite Mark Ryden creature: Yoshi-The Forest Spirit

Yeti and Sasquatch Monsters!

These Yeti and Sasquatch monsters are from the aptly named Careful It Bites. Just think of the fun you could have! My plan is to get two for my couch, and some to put in my windows! I'm thinking that should thoroughly cement my status in the eyes of my neighbors!

Sacred Squamata Monster!

This baby monster comes to us from Sacred Squamata. He's just a baby, so I can't make any guarantees about how big he will get, or how much you will need to feed him as an adult. However, I can promise you that no one will ever break into your house once he reaches full growth! Baby monster is ready to come home with you now, if you have the courage. Contact Sacred Squamata for all the details!

Cupcake Monster!

This scrumptious looking Cupcake Monster goes out to my sister Anna, who always posts the most mouthwatering goodies on her profile! Sweet Skully is from PetMonsters where you can find the perfect monsters for your siblings as well!

Grey Catmonster Celebration, The Finale!!

First of all, thank you for joining me on this exercise in sublimation, whereby I turn my aggressive need to show everyone in the world pictures of my new kitten, into a more socially acceptable action! I really appreciate the help (and so does everyone I plan to come in contact with!) So thank you again, and I hope you enjoy the rest of my defense mechanism!

First up for your viewing and purchasing pleasure, a stupendously magnificent catmonster from Paper Moon Gallery! Nextly (new word!) you can put your crochet skills to the test with Xmoonbloom's and Sofia Sobeide's catmonster patterns or wear your catmonster around with this tee from Zombie Couture. Finally, you can curl up and purr while you admire Fing's little grey catmonster!

Grey Catmonster Celebration Continues!

We found so many great catmonsters that we felt we had no choice but to continue, and this awesome crew will definitely keep the party going! Our first friendly feline comes to us from from Felttess (check out their philosopher cat as well!) Next up, Bunny With A Toolbelt's vision in grey, and from Plush Pussycat, a plush pussycat! From my beloved 3 Crows, a collection of dog and catmonsters, and from Big Hairy Bugs and Other Things a long, sweater wearing catmonster! Now that's what I call a good time! Will there be more tomorrow? Check back to find out!

Grey Catmonster Celebration!

Get ready for more half finished posts to start showing up! We here at iolm just adopted a little grey Catmonster, and he has already found his way to the blog writing spot. Our black Catmonster just recently got over his keyboard walking habit, but his new protege has already taken up the cause and (impressively!) posted twice in one morning! To celebrate, Roland and I have scoured the interwebs to bring you this fabulous Grey Catmonster Cornucopia! We hope you enjoy it!

Circus catmonster is from Cart Before The Horse, catmonster head hug is from Mommy's Midwest Mountain Folk Art by Cris, robot with grey catmonsters is from Best Art Studios , evil skull catmonster is from Zeropumpkin Studios and grey amigurumi catmonster is from Seventy Two Stitches. Go check out the shops to see all their wonderful non-greycatmonster creations too!

Cephalopod Party!

Boygirlparty

is another of my favorite shops, that I just realized I hadn't featured yet! I apologize for being so selfish! I hope you will forgive me, and I will attempt to make it up to you by presenting these magnificent cephalopods! Boygirlparty sells T-shirts, prints, paintings, necklaces, stationary, mirrors, buttons, and magnets, so you can get your celphalo-pal in whichever form you prefer! Oh, and by the way, boygirlparty has loads of other sweet creatures available too, but I knew I would need to break out the big guns to make up for my gaffe! Let me know if I have redeemed myself!
