Kranky-Kitty Mitties

Had a bad day? Let everyone know about it! I took a lot of care creating these super cool mittes for all ages. Thinking I'd like to make some monkey ones, for days when I'm feeling just a tad on the cheeky side. (which is most of the time) Did you know that every year many many many (and I can't type the many, many's I would need) children go without Mitties and hats?
This year I am going to make a dozen mitties and kid scarfs for my sons school! Sure shop that it helps out some families in need this soon to be chilly season.

Happy Hookin all







Halloween Fun!


Well it's almost time for my absolute FAVORITE holiday!
Halloween!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Every year at Halloween, Easter, and Christmas I release limited edition finger puppets. I never sell them after the said holiday, and I change the theme of them every year. So if you own a set of ghosts and pumpkins from last year, well.....this year is even better! Glow-In-The-Dark Ghost finger puppets!!!
Yes they really do glow!! Ya just charge em up in front of a good ol 60W for 5 min, and VIOLA, a glowing ghoul. Now to start planning for Christmas!

Newest Puppet!

Well it took alot of coffee and a ton of brain power! I have had a funeral for all the little brain cells that died this weekend :) I have been wanting to create a puppet that's good for little hands. Easy to use and can be animated like the Monster Puppets.
I took the ones I made to Tickled Pink to see how they would do there! I'm not posting any pictures or any hints until I see how they do!!!!!!! awwwwww haha.
ok ok ok, I'll give you a hint.....small...people often refer to them at bed time.....might bite your butt!!!!
