More Guitar Softies


After many requests from various magazines and newspapers, I took some more photos of our latest series of guitars to pass to the press. This group are all custom made by us. My personal fav is the red with white polka!

Elliot and Big Tone


We had such a great time when Nico's sister Sophie and her 2 boys came and stayed with us. Heres Eliott and Big Tone in a monster hug!

Recycled Vinyl Jewelry




Our latest endeavor! We had some vinyl cut by water jet and then bent it into shape if necessary. We also had some very cool necklaces cut that we still need to finish the chains on, but they should be here soon!

New Character Art!


Courtesy of our young new friend Fiona, who we met at the Craft Guerilla Market. She seemed to really enjoy our monsters, and drew two fantastic portraits of Johnny Fandango and Betsy Bones in action.

Great stuff Fiona! thanks again!

The Backyard Market!



Hello fellow craftsters and friends! We've made our first few sales. We decided last minute to throw a stall together for "The Backyard Market" off of Brick Lane. The weather was lousy so there wasn't a lot of people, but we got a great response, particularly for the clocks. It was an excellent day all around even if our little toesies were a little frozen :)
