Squishies

 

I seriously have mixed feelings about all these…things. I made them because I wanted to have some things at the Farmer’s Market that would appeal to boys.

Still, some of them are so gross they make me kinda sick. Haha. This Zombie for instance. Blaugh.

The bubbling cauldron is ok.

It just sits calmly until you squish it and then it bubbles over!

Frankie blows bubbles….

like the candy corn.

Kinda cute and kinda nasty.

Haven’t decided which yet.

As long as the kids like them, it’s a win…right?

Yak. Haha.

Slightly Grumpy Kitties

These cuties are called “Loaf Cats” probably because they resemble a short squatty loaf of bread…or a sausage.

My problem with these guys is that they don’t look particularly…you know… happy. So, I thought, that’s easily remedied.

One needle and a bit of thread later…

Problem now is that they don’t look right somehow. Cute and happier, sure, but still…um…

wrong.

Luckily, that, is also easily remedied.

Yeah, I took the smiles all off. Sounds weird, but I suppose there are some creatures that look better with a straight face.

Don’t quote me.

Perry the Platypus

While contemplating my spooky Farmer’s Market booth that is looming…(AHHHH!) one of my kids suggested that I make Perry the Platypus from Phineas and Ferb.

You know…THIS guy.

So I did.

And while he may be lacking in the crime fighting, ninja skills…

he’s still soft and cuddly and cute.

He’s certainly more friendly than that other grumpy guy.

So I made more….


Heh, heh.

The Leaf Bug

If you’re a fan of Bluey–(and who isn’t?!) then you probably remember the adorable episode where little Bingo meets a tiny Leaf Bug.

Bingo is fascinated that the “leaf” is walking around. It’s a very touching episode and you should really watch it, if you haven’t already.

So, when I came across a pattern for the Walking Leaf–welllllll…. there was no getting around it. I HAD to make it.

Doesn’t it just have the cutest face?!  I swear to you, I was giggling the whole time I was crocheting.

I mean–those eyes, that itty bitty smile…and…and…

those teensy, weensy little feet!!! Eeeeek!! Have you ever seen anything so cute in all your life?

As you may know–I’m not a huge fan of actual bugs. In fact, if I came across this critter in real life I would probably run away screaming like I’d been shot. But this little soft fluffy one would steal anybody’s heart.

especially mine…

and Bingo’s.

Pop-up Ghosts

These little guys are some of my very FAVORITE things to crochet because they come together real fast–and well…

they’re just so DANG CUUUTE!! I made three of each kind and I hope they sell OUT!! Haha.

Whatever I bring home from the Market will go in my shop at graciousrainshop.etsy.com   

 just as soon as I can stop playing with them myself! Hahaa.
