My hubby's web site. He's so cool, I can't stand it. Be warned- you will see a drawn boob! Check out his LiveJournal, too -- very funny.

All handmade, from paintings to soap to plushes. Artists post their work for sale on this great site. Even if you don't want to buy anything, it's still really fun to go and play with the time machine and shop by color. You'll see what I mean ;-)

This is a wonderful shop with great handmade items some of which you won't find anywhere else.  Well put together and wonderfully run.

Handspun yarn and other homemade goodies! This is such a wonderful site, chock-full of goodness. Run by a wonderful girl. Please check out her site -- colorful and cute!

Web shop with the cutest designs on clothes, buttons and pet goods. Kudos to Jennifer and Michael for a job well-done!

Trisha Combs has started baking up the BEST dog treats ever! I even enjoy them. Super cute collars too. Please go and give a budding entrepeneur some love.

I found out about moo cards from Trisha (see left link). They are the slickest printing company. Great design (mini cards and sticker books) and wonderful quality.

Marissa and Chris have just started up this great new site. It's just what we need right now -- affordable, diy, horror, punk, creepy and cute stuff! They have it all. Don't bother going to the mall, go to this site..seriously...you'll find everything from ooak bullet buddies necklaces (real used bullets!) to Living Dead Dolls at great prices. These guys are super cool so buy some stuff and make yourself happy :-)

This is my newest find and it may be my all-time favorite website. I am blown away by this site. Please take a look and I have no doubt you'll feel the same as long as you like great art, great skill and gruesome finds! Everything is handmade in the truest sense of the word and the curios are the best. They have a real shrunken head for sale now -- see, I thought you'd like that...

Here are some wonderful, hand-painted safety eyes for when you absolutely need that special color for your special creation. Michelle creates them all herself -- what a great gal!

Found this wonderful site through LJ and I am super happy. I LOVE the designs. This is the place to go for tee's and bags and such with uber cute characters. Again, go for the design, stay for the cute.

This site is all in Spanish for now, but you really must go and check out her work. I absolutely love, love, love the one of a kind plush bugs. Greta has a bunch more stuff so please check em out! Gracias!

Such kick butt cool jewelry designs! Sharon Walker is doing some super original work with her necklaces and I really feel that these are gonna be big. Go-look-buy :-)

Why has it taken me so long to fall in love with tokidoki? Because I never really looked. Please -- look and fall in love.

I get requests for link exchanges and sometimes I get lucky and the people doing the requesting are super cool and creative. Fluffels is one of those instances. Mariska makes these super cute plushes and honestly I can't decide if Zombie Bear, Bubbo or Sqweeby is my favorite. Ahhh...you're intrigued aren't you? go to Fluffles....go.

I was featured on this blog and now I'm hooked. A great blog for independent goods, nothing mass-produced here. Check in to see the latest products and artists she finds.

Super cool, high quality embroidered streetware for those of us with old school tattoos in our blood. You want something different to keep you warm -- go here.

I was also written up on this great blog which features reviews of artists and designers that the owner, Liana, likes. Different picks every day, she's a great person who also does her own jewelry designs. Based in Honolulu, you can't go wrong.

Another great consignment shop with all handmade items that you can't find anywhere else.

I love Anna Chambers! I have always loved her and her plushes. Heck just about everything she does is super cool. The link is to her blog which I love to read and find inspiration in. Go find Anna yourself and you'll see. Oh yes, you'll see.

I read my subscription to Giant Robot religiously cover to cover. If you're not sure what's out there in the indie toy, art and music scenes -- these guys will help you out.

Hip and cool baby clothes for newborns, infants and toddlers. They also carry cool pacifiers and CD's, for that badass baby you gave birth to.

By the same family who gave us the above site, comes additional options for the rest of your family. Punk clothes to fit older kids as well as plus sizes.

Very cool jewelry designs -- especially her birthstone charm bracelets. Colorful, fun, and cute! Good luck, Kat!

If you're having a bad day - go here. If you're having a good day - go here. This truly is all the cutest photos on the web at any given time. Don't believe me? I dare you to look at it and not say, 'Awwww'

Jennifer Murphy is a genius and a true artist. I'm hoping I can get one of her pieces some day. Please check out her site, you'll be happy you did.

Aranzi Aronzo cute characters from Japan.

Anano Bears from Japan. Got one from Takashimaya in Tokyo.

Also bought one of these little guys from the same shop.

Oh My God! Another Japanese site...get ready for some of the cutest dogs ever!

The most amazing bear designs. It's in Japanese but poke around, you're sure to come across something great.

This is the best site for, well, all things kawaii! One of my favorites for the longest time...and now I'm listed!

What awesomely cute, sexy skirts! Right up my alley. If you long to scream bloody murder while looking stylish, as a monster in a bad gorilla suit runs you down in a swamp -- then go here and buy!

What a great company and the leader in the indie toy scene. I love them and curse them for all the cool things I can't fit in my house!

Great mag and site-- loads of inspirational stuff.

Urban vinyl, stuffed critters, necessities. Nuff said. I long for more shelf space.

Kariwanz are the most amazing fetish designers from Japan. Karin and Wanco have been more than generous with showing Gimp a good time in Tokyo. You will be amazed. Don't be afraid because they're 'fetish' either -- I couldn't find any nudity and their designs are beautiful.

One of my new favorites. What cool designs and the website is so well thought out. Go for the plushes, go for the site design, go for the colors, the pictures, the news -- but go you must!

If you're in NYC and want to blow your little mind with the best art, design books, toys and Japanese culture -- visit Zakka. You can also buy online.

wee wonderfuls is so full of art inspiration it's sickening. She's got so many great items. Take a peek, it'll do you good.

Creature Co-Op have some of the coolest plushes ever. Merman here is one of my favs. Please give em' some love.

Teresa Levy's site is jam packed with cute, wonderfully executed artwork and crafty goodness. Creatures, stationary, etc. Check her out!

Another beautiful site filled with beautiful work. The originator of the Month of Softies. Brilliant!

Shawnimals is rolling with the big boys now. Always a fan of this well put together operation. They are moving into the plush makers nemesis/dream -- vinyl.

Stupid sock creatures by John Murphy has been a favorite of mine for ages. His creatures are so original and his news page is compelling 'starving artist on the cusp of making it big' reading. This is his book on making some of your own sock creatures. Go by a copy and check out his page. He deserves it.

Grace Montemar is another art inspiration for me...has been for awhile. Her site is beautiful, too.

Great toys, great people.  Always there to help the indies.

I love this site. The links page is huge.

biggerKrissy is very cool. Cool plush, cool baubles, cool words.

This is the site that proved indespensible for me while learning Flash. Check them out!

We got our first dog through this site it's wonderful.

Trust me. If you love character designs, go here. Pictoplasma is the sh*t. I think I'll go there myself...

Some of the first new-wave plushes that I bought were these guys. If you don't know who they are I don't think we can be friends anymore.

Mr.TTT and Squid still hold prime spots in my room. Friends With You. One of the originals. These guys never cease to impress me.

Joe Vaux is a great painter. In fact Axis (to the left) was the first painting I ever bought.

Fashion forward design. Cool clothes and accessories.

Takashi Amano is the master of aquariums. Who knew they could be so beautiful?

So nice to come across your work in the hands of someone cool like Penny McClish. Beautiful latex and costume work. Visit and be nice.

I really love jewelry. Expensive or costume it's all cool and this site has some of the coolest examples of the latter. Great prices too!

Absolutely awesome repros. Got my husband a baby skull for his b-day and the detail is crazy. The marine mammals are especially neat.

If you think Bush is doing a great job, then don't go here -- it might ruin your day.

The most amazing photography of some truly crazy creatures.

Found Art forms in nature: the prints of Ernst Haeckel and was floored instantly. Check out Amazon for his books. Check out this site that shows a number of his prints

Great day for Goths at Disneyland. They also have Bats Day Black Market for all sorts of cool stuff.

Cute but edgey street fashion
