Limited Edition Moffin Batch 2 Stash Boxes Are Here!

Posted on by

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!

Stay Spooky & Magical!

*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 as their resident local artist.

I took my love of Jim Henson creatures (hence the cute monster faces) and mixed it with my love of the macabre (coffin boxes) and created… the MOFFINS!

They are 6″ coffin boxes made into monsters and come in different colors! Right now the ones in the photo (green, orange, purple and blue) are pre-made and ready to shop. They are currently Limited Edition which means once they are gone they are gone.

Here is a photo of the inside of the boxes…

Artist Shout Out: Six Gables

Posted on by

As you all know, I do Artist Shout Out posts when I come across a handmade creation or art piece that blows me away. It allows me to share with my customers and followers my appreciation for other artists I have discovered. Well my recent purchase from Deana of Six Gables made me turn on the laptop and start typing!

All I had to do was search Etsy for monsters (of course) and before I knew it I was looking for monster bags. In the feed I noticed furry faces and immediately contacted Deana about doing a custom order for me. See I love my scary horror monsters but as most of you already know I have a total Jim Henson and Muppet obsession. I also love me some colorful fun fur and her shop was full of it. Just like her bags, Deana is imaginative and fun to work with. You tell her what colors you like and the attitude you want your monster to have and anything your into and she goes to work. My requests were for the monster to be a boy, to have purple fur, lime green horns/eyes, and of course my love for the macabre incorporated for the inside fabric. She was awesome enough to send me a photo when my Nom Nom Monster bag was done. The turn around was insanely quick!

As soon as I saw the package had arrived in the mail I tore it open. To my surprise there was an adorable note inside that told me all about my new monster friend… Arturo!

I of course was a total cheese ball the minute I saw him. He was perfect. Just looking at him screamed “Hi Nicole, I was made for you! Love me!” and I could not be happier.

One of the things I noticed right away was how the craftsmanship was on point! For how quick the turn around was it is still durable, made of high quality materials and you can tell Deana is a master at her trade.

The inside of Arturo has this awesome sugar skull fabric as well as the pockets made of dancing skeleton material to satisfy my love for the macabre by still keeping it cute. Not to mention the adorable red leather tongue and white teeth! The bag I chose was the larger bag and as you can see it holds all of my stuff including my medications, glasses case and all the rest of my junk perfectly.


I have already started to use the bag regularly and have gotten a ton of compliments on it. I even refer to digging something out of my purse as “let’s see if Arturo ate it” ha ha. I can’t express how all around fun this bag is and how awesome Deana is to work with. I highly recommend contacting her if you want a monster of your own or are looking for a Christmas gift for that unique person in your life! She has plenty of items available in her shop that are ready to ship. She does them in various sizes including large bags like Arturo, medium size bags, and sporran hip bags! You can even have a girl monster made with a cute little bow on her head!

Contact Deana at Six Gables and adopt your own monster friend today! Make sure to tell her Living Dead Girl Nicole sent you! You can also find her on Facebook!

Stay Spooky!
