Black Cat Approves!

Here is your handsome
cephalopod fix for the week! He is available at Black Cat Approves. Black Cat Approves? Now that is a sentiment that we here at iolm can relate to for sure! After all, everything here is "Black Monster Approved!"

I Love Doodle Monsters!

These guys from the I Love Doodle Shop, look like a lot of fun to have around, but I do think the other coffee drinks ARE being a little hard on the latte. I mean, he can't help who he is...

Jellies!

These jellyfish friends are from It's the Fuzz and I simply must post the shop's description of them because YOU NEED TO KNOW! So here you go:

"Jellyfish are the sleepiest looking of all types of jellies. Strawberry, blueberry, even raspberry jelly have more energy than the jellyfish. Just look at those eyes, this is the fish that had a long day at the office and now has a long commute home stuck in undersea construction the entire way."

See what I mean?

Chubby Manatee Creatures!

All the creatures at Chubby Manatee are wonderful, but this grey Wild Fluff Monster is definitely calling my name! He is a special edition Wild Fluff Monster, which means he loves to "eat vegetables and sleep in leaf piles" Hmmmmm... I too, am a big fan of leaf piles! Sounds like we will get along just fine!

Cheeky Little Beasts!

My new pals, Berry, Flame, Raindrop, Germ and Cactus are visiting from (the oh-so-appropriately-named) Cheeky Little Beast! They each have their own personality, and all are exceedingly hug-able! They even have a cute little butt, which I suspect only adds to their "cheeky-ness!"

Hihorse Creatures!

Sometimes I find a shop, and I want everything in it. Sometimes I find a shop where I want to buy everything in it to give to my friends as gifts, but this is a new experience for me. HiHorse is the first shop where I want everything in it, and so does my cat! HiHorse has awesome refrigerator magnets, brooches, prints, paintings, dolls, wallets, AND CAT TOYS!!

Monster Love!

Oh, Galia's Monster Love Shop I love everything about you! Of course I love your name, your Edward Gorey-esque art, and your fabulous monster prints, but most of all I love your MONSTER LOVE TEMPORARY TATTOOS! I simply can not think of anything more fabulous! Buy some, try them, and then get them actually tattooed on you!

The Beast Peddler Creatures!

These amazing monsters are from The Beast Peddler! They are all unique and wonderful, but I have to say that I am smitten with the black one because from the side, he looks exactly like my dog! They do look a little different from the front. Although, if you were trying to break into my house, that is pretty much exactly what you would see, all teeth and GRRRR!

Creature Industry Monsters!

Wow! I was so excited when I discovered these majestic beings from Creature Industry in the iolm inbox, that I could hardly wait to post them! You can see them here, "like" them on Facebook and buy them here ( if you live in Poland!) I have yet to figure out how to buy them with US dollars or have them shipped to me here, BUT never fear, I am on the job, and I will keep you posted!

Phoenix Knits Creatures!

These wonderful creatures come to us from Phoenix Knits. Those of you who can knit, can have the patterns e-mailed to you. You can knit them up, AND THEN, letting loose with your loudest, most evil laugh, finish by crying out "It's Aliveeeee!!!!" as you complete each one!

Well, that's how I would do it anyway...

Yeti and Sasquatch Monsters!

Ladies and gentlemen, iolm is pleased to present, the match up you've all been waiting for: Tiny Yeti vs. Tiny Big foot! Two handsome abominable buddies from 13 Chestnuts! Standing at a massive 3.5 inches in white, give it up for Tiny Yeti! AND In brown, fight ready, at a sturdy 3.5 inches, Tiny Sasquatch! Let's get ready to rumble!!!

Beer Monster!

I think I may have to buy these monsters from Felt Like Stitchin in bulk! I know a lot of people who can relate to this guy! What's that? What about me? Now don't be silly!

I never drink my beer out of a pint glass...

TP Cozy at Home!

You may recall, some time back, my heartfelt plea for some talented crochet artist to make me a TP cozy from Skeletal Dropkick's awesome pattern. Well, that mission was accomplished and I thought it was time to show you the happy results! So here, without further ado, and using my handy phone camera, is my TP cozy at home in it's natural habitat!

I would like to thank Rachel Cowley for her hard work and the beautiful job she did! If you would like her to make YOU a custom TP cozy from the same pattern, drop her a line at ubercutecritter@yahoo.co.uk or rooiecowley20149@yahoo.com.

and NO, you can not hire me to take pictures at your next event! I'm a very busy person...

Boney Buddies!

Sometimes you just need a skeleton to hug! Here is your chance to acquire four! Your new skeleterrific pal can be found at Longoria Girls , AND accessories are coming soon, so get ready!

Tiki Creatures!

As I have mentioned many times, I am always on the lookout for more creatures for my tiki room (Well, to be honest, I am always on the lookout for more creatures for my every room; BUT my tiki room is the most difficult to shop for, at least with regard to plush!) HOWEVER, Plush Parade has come through for me, big time, with not one, but TWO fabulous plush tiki guys! C'est magnifique!
