just purchased the first cryptid for Christmas 2019 from Etsy! Ian will be the lucky receipient.

Item details Handmade Materials socks, polyfill, fake fur, assorted threads Roaming free, and always slightly blurry, in the wooded hills of the Pacific Northwest we find the fabled Socksquatch. Long evading researchers and Cryptid enthusiasts due to its small stature, the Socksquatch was finally coerced out of hiding by a comfortable pair of shoes and a bit of maple syrup candy. If you promise to get him a demon dog hot dog, he will gladly go home with you. -------------- CASE FILE: NAME: Marco HEIGHT: Appx. 16 inches/ 41 cm FOUND: April 2019 ---------------- Sockquatches are hand sewn and sculpted out of new socks, fake fur, polyester fiberfill stuffing, an assortment of threads. They also tend to be sneaky and hard to see out of the corner of your eye. They can be spot washed gently with a washcloth and hung dry if they get too messy. Each one is hand-crafted and is completely unique. Now available with a cute Cotton Flannel shirt! Select what color you’d like from the variations list - if a color is no longer listed, it means that color is no longer available. WARNING - Socksquatches are stitched by hand with care but they may not hold up to frequent, enthusiastic play. They may also have small parts such as button eyes - so they are not suitable for children under 8 years old. Please use discretion when purchasing a Socksquatch. Orders are shipped within 1-3 business days. Standard shipping materials include a cardboard box and tissue paper - in case of preference, risk of inclement weather, etc. a plastic barrier is available upon request. CANADIAN ORDERS: Provincial tax on purchases for Saskatchewan is the buyer’s responsibility. INTERNATIONAL ORDERS : All custom and VAT taxes are the buyers responsibility.
I selected flannel shirt #3. yeah, he's a furry guy, but he lives outside, and man it gets COLD.

Violet's First Birthday

ordered this adorable baby doll from etsy
Newborn Rock A Bye Baby Doll~Waldorf Inspired Cotton Cloth Rag Doll stuffed with Alpaca Fiber Item details Handmade Materials cotton knit, alpaca fiber, llama fiber, sea pebbles Rock-A-Bye-Baby doll is a newborn baby doll, Waldorf inspired cloth rag doll, made of cotton knit cloth and stuffed with alpaca fiber. "Sunny" brown baby doll has a hair tuft of black llama fiber, hand embroidered dark brown eyes and ruby smile. Cotton cloth doll is 10" long, has rosy red cheeks, and an "outie" belly button. Newborn baby doll wears a yellow cotton knit nightie with extra long hood and a cotton diaper. My handmade dolls are made one at a time just for you and no two are alike. This cute little cotton cloth doll is soft, warm and cuddly. Rock-a-bye-Baby doll is made from my original designs. I call this line of dolls "Rock-a-bye-Baby" because of the tiny smooth pebbles that I sew up in a sack and stuff in their little bottoms. These "rocks" give Rock-a-bye-Baby some extra weight. "Sunny" is hand-constructed with machine seams and hand stitches. This Waldorf inspired doll should be treated by her new Mommy or Daddy with the gentle care that you would give any newborn. Rock A Bye Baby dolls are small enough to fit nicely into a child's hands and arms. The doll can sit up but because the neck and arms and legs are jointed, the doll is somewhat floppy. Sunny is a great educational toy for a child to learn how to support and hold a real baby. Halo Toys Rock-a-bye Baby dolls are stuffed with alpaca fiber that comes from a neighboring farm. I know the sweet alpacas and llamas and the owners that provide this wonderful fiber. It is cleaned and carded before using in my dolls. Llama and alpaca fiber is naturally hypoallergenic. Cotton cloth dolls stuffed with alpaca fiber should be spot cleaned only. Please let me know if you need doll by an earlier date than what I have listed. I will do my best to accommodate you! Recommended for ages 3 and up. Comes with a numbered hangtag and numbered sewn-in label. I love this little baby and think you will too! ***************************************** © 2019 Patricia Hendy Bowling "HeBo. All rights reserved. *****************************************

the story Is There a Doctor in the House? It's what's inside that counts, and this adorable character proves it! Zipped inside Erwin's tummy, tiny surgeons will find six essential organs: lungs, heart, intestines, liver, spleen, and kidneys. All of the plush organs are color-coded, and children will have a blast identifying each one in the accompanying booklet and learning more about its very important role in our bodies. Underneath it all, an embroidered posterior skeleton teaches kids about how our bones keep everything together. Smart and surprisingly sweet, this little patient is the perfect toy to pique the interest of your pre-pre-med student, and it can also help a brave kiddo get through a tough surgery. Made in China
