Amigurumi Bear Baby

How cute. Having only ever knitted a holey scarf at school, respect to knitters. This little one is seriously looking for being adopted! Aqua mohair wool is her head, with a touch of blush on her cheeks. She wears a fabulous orange/black dress with little flowers and embroidered details. And carries a chicken balloon

Milky Milky

This is all about the milk.
An online boardgame promoting the white stuff with a fully renedered map, a bit of stop motion, and some ineractive games along the way.
The dice action is brilliant. Play it here and see some making of here.

My MY

MY MY is a US-based website run by Taryn Hipp selling 'handmade and totally awesome' goodies! They showcase the talent of independent artists, crafters & zinesters from the US & around the world. I particularly like their children's apparel which features some cool prints and applique, and the plush which is really cute and quirky.

They also have some cool papergoods including a small selection of greetings cards, calendars and journals, as well as a massive selection of funny buttons. (that's badges to you and me)
