I wish glam rock was still prevalent today, you just don't see it as much as you used to. There is just something so cool to me about people who can glam it up and still be a huge rock star. So in honor of those few I made a little ziggy beardust. You can check him out here.

The Butler Did It

Purple Heart
My latest bear I have to admit was kind of a pain in the ass to make. The swirl faux fur that I used to make it has a very sturdy backside that is makes it like trying to sew carpeting. However the cloth is so cool and soft that it's totally worth it. If you want to see more pictures go here.

Three Dimensional
I have to admit that I’m not a big fan of the new 3D movie wave. I mean does every movie have to be altered to 3D just to make a quick buck? Unfortunately the new glasses don’t work for me, the image just looks blurred and after a while it gives me a headache. I see what Avatar was trying to do, but every other 3D film I’ve seen just seems to use it ineffectively. So as a way of recapturing my childhood, I made a teddy bear with the old style 3D glasses. To see more of him go here.

The F Bomb
I got the idea for this toy a couple years ago actually. My roommates sister has a son and he was turning two years old, at the time she kept telling us to watch our language around the boy. So every time we would drop the F bomb, she said very loudly "F bomb!" So when I was thinking of a present for a two year old, I thought a stuffed profanity would be fun. A couple years later, I decided to make another one. You can see more of it here.

Bear necessities
Making bears out of corduroy is pretty awesome. I really love to utilize a variety of different fabrics when I sew, I think it adds to the originality of each bear. To see more of my latest bear go here.

Bear essentials
I have to say, one of the hardest parts of posting my bears on Etsy is coming up with a decent description. I spend way too long trying to write an interesting, funny quip about each bear. However, while I would never classify myself as any kind of writer, it is a new and interesting creative exercise. If you would like to read my latest work, go here.

Hip to be Square
Just uploaded a new square bear to the Etsy site. It's hard not to get a little attached to these little teddy bears when I make them, I only hope that the new owners will love them as much as I do.

Upside down
So this bear has an interesting story behind it. I was trying to make a bear with a little more bowling pin shape to it and once I cut the fabric thought why not turn it around and make a fat head. So I did and this is the final bear. I like him, he's cute. If you want to see more of him, go here.
