Violet’s Monstrous Handmade Birthday Surprise from Aunt Living Dead Girl Nicole

0

Over the weekend we had some fun celebrating my great niece Violet’s 11th birthday. One of the MANY things I love about this little girl is her fascination with monsters, cryptids, mythological creatures, and animals. And not just typical animals either. She can lay down some facts about animals you didn’t even know existed and is a trip and half to go on zoo adventures with.

On top of all of that she loves drawing the things she loves as cartoon characters. Her talents and imagination fascinate me. She gives each character she draws names and each one has a backstory. That’s right, she’s quite the little artist herself and my husband and I have a little collection of handmade gifts and drawings she has made for us over the years and when she draws or makes something new she can’t wait to show us. Since she is getting older (she even mentioned the word pre-teen at her party to remind us all) I thought she would appreciate finally owning one of Aunt Nicole’s handmade Monstrosities.

So here is Franklin (the name she gave him), who is a “violet” and pink Moffin pencil/art supply holder and the first of its kind!

I wrapped him and the art supplies (seen in the photos) up in cellophane and tied it off with my branding ribbon. We gifted it to her with a book about cryptids and an art sticker maker she had on her wishlist. She got a complete kick out of it.

It was so rewarding to see the reaction she had and the smile on her face. She truly is quite the creature lover like her Aunt Nicole.

You can find Violet and Franklin alongside photos and videos of some of my other happy art collectors on myΒ Freaky FanaticsΒ page of myΒ portfolio website. Franklin can also be found amongst my other handmade monster creations on the MonstrositiesΒ page.

And.. if you are looking for a quirky low maintenance companion to call your own, be sure to shop my creationsΒ to see which of myΒ MonstrositiesΒ are currently available for adopting. Unlike machine mass produced collectibles, these are each handmade with loving intentions and therefore no one else in the world will ever own the one that you adopt. This makes them one-of-a-kind gifts for the person in your life that has everything and are definitely great conversation starters for your home or work decor.

If you are already one of my art collectors, don’t forget to contact me so you can send me your photos or Youtube video links showing how you rock, gift or display my artwork and become a featured Freaky Fanatic!

You’ll Be Hooked On My Latest Moffin Creation

1

What the world needs now is more Moffins! Not only do they bring joy to those who adopt them, but they are also one of my favorite things to make. I just love the way their little personalities begin to shine through during the creative process, making them that much more unique and one of a kind. So needless to say, this whimsical goth has transformed yet another coffin-shaped treasure into a new monstrous friend for someone to adopt, but I can’t tell you how tempted I have been to keep this cutie for myself.

For this Moffin, I treasure-hunted a brand new coffin-shaped wall hook and transformed it into a slimy but sparkly, unicorn-horned monster who can’t wait to magically protect your keys, jewelry, your glasses, hand towels, or anything lightweight.

Moffin Monster Wall Hook Decor Handmade by Artist Living Dead Girl Nicole

This creation measures 6″ from its base to the top of its bright blue head and is 3″ at the widest part of its face. It has magenta and bright blue eyes and a hand-sculpted unicorn horn with matching magenta and lavender faux fur hair. Like my other Moffins, it has “slimy” skin, but this special guy also has a touch of sparkle! I mean, look at him. He was born to sparkle! On the bottom is a black metal hook to hang your treasures.

There is only one of these pre-made making it a unique piece of handmade art that you and only you can display in your home. It is currently listed for sale in my Etsy shop and will soon be available to see in person and purchase at Closet Collectibles in Crete, IL for a discounted rate*.
