What Inspired You to Make This?
Ive (Monica) crocheted on and off since I was 16, with a new adhd diagnosis as a 33 year old and a stay at home mom I needed a hobby, I needed something that was mine and made me feel like me again, I’ve always loved the weird and spooky and ever since I was a kid it was a dream to sell my art, I wasn’t sure if other people would love it too but in doing this I’ve built the most beautiful little community, I’m not rolling in the dough by any means and really at this point I’m just here for the smiles on people faces when they find that weird plushies that they’ve always needed in their life.
