That said, it was nice to have the day off yesterday. I spent most of that day being crafty. One could say, MONSTROUSLY crafty. (ooooh soooo punny.)
A few weeks ago I posted a child's fleece hat to the Etsy Monster, and a very good friend of mine messaged me almost instantly to say "you made that? Think it would fit my kid?"
And, you know, yes I think it would fit... except he doesn't have one tiny noggin running around his home for that hat to cover. He has two babes, two noggins. And as such, I couldn't just send one hat. Plus, the perk of being a friend to the great KpMcD (if I can toot my own horn for a minute), is that I'm a giver. (and I do enjoy any good reason to plop myself in front of a project, let's be real.)
So yesterday I craft-nerded out and put together two monster hats just for those two awesome little men. I can't wait until they get to try them on, so I'm off to send them off in the mail right now!
Did you like Monsters as a little kid?
What was your favorite fashion accessory*?
Did you like dress up?
What did you dress up as?
Tell me in the comments!
*I had a vest/ dinosaur costume. It was fleece and pink and tied together in the front with ribbons. It had a hood that had purple fleece spikes sewn to it, those same spikes down the back, and it even had a pink tail that was spiked as well. I would wear it ALL THE TIME with my brown twirly-round skirt, well past the point that either item fit me in any sense of the word.

Those hats are adorable! I love days when I can just dig in and go full out crafty.
Those are some of the best days.
Hell, I love to wear silly hats now. I have a whole collection of animal hats that I wear around the house, much to the annoyance of the husband.
Thanks! I think they turned out pretty cute too.
Silly animal hats for the win Holly. You know if you want a custom hat all ye need do is ask (and measure your head for me. and... you know, pay for it :)
