Bluebelle Kitten

This is Bluebelle. She’s the baby of the shop at the moment. She’s a smallish blue kitten who refuses to part with her lacy cap, she’s quiet, and just really wants a friend to cuddle her.

Paula Abdul – Opposites Attract

Upcycled, repurposed, whatever you want to call it by… This is a bowl made by heating up the vinyl record and molding it into whatever shape I wanted it to be.

This particular bowl is made from a copy of Paula Abdul’s “Opposites Attract” single. You remember that one, right? It had the cartoon cat. It was catchy, and I’m embarrassed to admit that I actually owned the MC Skat Cat album. This particular album is star-shaped, which you could say is the complete opposite of MC Skat Cat’s career.

Janet Jackson – The Skin Game

Upcycled, repurposed, whatever you want to call it by… This is a bowl made by heating up the vinyl record and molding it into whatever shape I wanted it to be.

This particular bowl is made from a copy of Janet Jackson’s “The Skin Game” single, from back in the day when singles came with two sides. It’s got a slightly more than vaguely star-shape to it, which makes it super-neato-rific. Seriously, it’s funky. I promise you.

Apollonia – Mismatch

Upcycled, repurposed, whatever you want to call it by… This is a bowl made by heating up the vinyl record and molding it into whatever shape I wanted it to be.

This particular bowl is made from a copy of Apollonia’s single “Mismatch”, from back in the day when singles came with two sides. It’s (mostly) round, with flowy curves around the edges. children will flock to it, curious about what sort of substance it is, and then ask you who this mysterious Apollonia is, and you will have to explain that she hung on Prince’s coattails and was in a handful of bad tv shows.

Bare Bear

I work in a pharmacy.  I’ve been there for almost six years now.  It’s in the ghetto, sandwiched between a 24-hour doughnut/lotto place, a bar that opens at 8am, and a porn shop.  It’s fun, and I get to deal with a lot of…. interesting people.

 

I was a newbie pharmacy tech, having had the job for only a few months at that point, and was still a bit inexperienced with some of the people I was dealing with, and some of the strange excuses that people would use to try and get early refills on their pain medications.  So, imagine if you will, the reaction of this fresh-faced pharmacy tech getting a phone call one afternoon from a patient who wants us to push through an early refill on his pain meds because they were lost while he was camping in the woods.  This patient was minding his own business, when for no reason at all a bear came and stole it.

 

And thus, Vicodin-Bear was born.

Additional Notes

  • Your bear will be bare naked.  At this time, I don’t have any plans to add any accessories for them, but if you’d like an initial on it, please let me know in the message when you order it.
  • Bears are made on request, and usually take about a week to ship.  If it is going to take longer, I will let you know.
  • Regular-sized bear is a little just a bit over the size of your average can of soda.  Large size will be, well, larger, and cost extra.

Eddie Murphy – Comedian

Upcycled, repurposed, whatever you want to call it by… This is a bowl made by heating up the vinyl record and molding it into whatever shape I wanted it to be.

This particular bowl is made from a copy of Eddie Murphy: Comedian. The inside of the bowl features such comedic gems such as “The Fart Game.” The bottom is on the bottom due to some NSFW language.

—-

Bowls can be used for anything. Toss your keys in it and never lose them, toss some fruit in it and have a conversation piece on your counter, hold spare change, use one or a bunch as wall decor (it comes with its own pre-made hole in the center!), what isn’t there to like?

Kusudama Ball – Hunger’s Brides

A lovely origami kusudama ball with a pretty star motif.

This kusudama is made from the recycled pages of a book that I thought was terrible. I’ve added a hook made from green floral wire so that you can hang the ball from a curtain rod or what have you. There’s also a swirly bit of wire at the bottom, and if you’d like, I can add a tassel in the color of your choosing. The wire itself is flexible enough to adjust the size of the hook, or you can snip it off and remove the wire entirely and have an item to decorate a bookshelf, perhaps as a warning to other terrible books.

Measurements: kusudama measures about 7″ across, and the hook extends around 4″, but is easily adjustable. Mal, the cat, is not included.
