I am so happy to hear that my handcrafted, firey, Moffin Stash Box has made it to it’s new tomb sweet tomb. It fills my creative heart with joy, knowing he is already making new friends with pirates and protecting precious treasures!

With her photos Ashley posted the following caption.

“I bought another one of Living Dead Girl Nicole’s superb creations! A “moffin”. I LOVE it and it’s really cute! I already have my jewelry stored in it and a little help from Captain Jack to guard it. 😆“

Thank you again Ashley for being a return customer and for sharing!

Interested in a Moffin Stash Box of your own? I have 1 left from Batch 1 in Orange and 2 left from Batch 2 in Green and Blue. All of them are pre-made and ready to ship if purchased from my Etsy Shop or you can see them in person and buy them for a “support a small business” discounted price when purchased at Closet Collectibles in Crete Illinois.

Buy them (or any of my art) in person at the store for a discounted price* and support an artist and a small business at the same time. For those who are not local they are still available to purchase online in my Etsy shop as well.

*Price is discounted from online store prices. Etsy listings reflect the unfortunate amount of shop and transaction fees they charge us artists to sell online. If you are local or traveling to Illinois, I encourage my clients to save money and see my work on full display by shopping my artwork in person with my consignment partner, Closet Collectibles where they truly support my creative endeavors to the fullest as their resident local artist.

Limited Edition Moffin Batch 2 Stash Boxes Are Here!

Since a majority of my Limited Edition Moffins (from Batch 1) are busy protecting my client’s stash in their new, forever homes, I knew it was time for a new batch of Moffins to be born. I have been working hard over the last few months to make this new batch unique and have incorporated sculpture, more realistic teeth, monster eyes and a new “slimey” protective lacquer.

Available in earthy greens, firey reds, and watery blues, I present Batch 2 of my Limited Edition Moffin Stash Boxes…..

Seeing the eyes are the windows to the soul, I decided to use the colors of the monster’s eyes for inspiration for the color scheme for each Moffin’s coffin box body and hair. Just like the 1st batch, these are limited edition, which means you will own a unique piece of handmade art that no one else will ever have. There are currently only 1 of each (as pictured above) that are pre-made, listed in my Etsy shop and ready to protect your stash. They will also be available to purchase in person at a discounted rate* as soon as I make my next art drop off at Closet Collectibles in Crete, IL. In other words, be sure to get one while you can.

Visit my official portfolio website to see all of the Moffins I have made (so far) and be sure to bookmark the page while you are there and follow this blog for updates on my latest creations!

Favorite Childhood Book

Do you remember your favorite book from childhood?

I thought it might be fun to take advantage of some of these WordPress writing prompts so my Freaky Fanatics can get to know me a little better. So here we go….

I actually do remember my favorite book from childhood all too well. It was King Bidgood’s in the Bathtub by Audrey and Don Wood.

I always grabbed this beautiful, hardcover book from my elementary school library whenever our class had library day. I bet if it still exists at my old school the library check out card would be filled with my name over and over again. I also remember my friends and classmates never understanding why I loved it so much, which was fine by me because then I knew it would be available to check out. Maybe it was my love of whimsical things, the Renaissance Faire, fantasy films, and fairy tales. Maybe it was because it was like no other book I had ever picked up before. Maybe it was because I have always been drawn to the strange and unusual things most people don’t usually appreciate. All I know is that I could not get enough of this humorous tale no matter how many times I read it and I was absolutely captivated by the illustrations. So much so I would look at the pages over and over again incase I missed something the artist had hidden somewhere. I will forever be grateful for this book as it was a great escape for me as a little girl when life was cruel. I guess that is another reason why I remember how mesmerized I was by it.

What was your favorite childhood book? Feel free to leave a comment if you feel like sharing and be sure to read my artist bio to learn more about what makes my brain tick on my portfolio website.
