Cheese: Cheese likes to make sandwiches. He uses Swiss slices as the 'bread' and layers them with mozzarella, brie, and gouda. His cholesterol is a bit on the high side, so he mitigates this by jogging around the block once or twice a week. When not making and consuming his sandwiches, he enjoys taking hot baths, listening to death metal, and binge-watching How It's Made.
Materials: Sock, plastic eyes, recycled hardware and buttons, resin teeth, beads, dried beans (to give his legs and butt a little weight) and polyfil.
Size: Elliot is a small creature. He's about 6.5 inches tall in sitting position. Arm span of 5.5 inches..
Shipping: $10 (If you're outside the US, please contact me prior to purchasing so I can adjust for international rates. If you purchase it at this price and you're outside of the US, I'll need to cancel the order as international shipping starts at $34 and is usually closer to $64. Thanks for understanding.)
Shipping Info: I take creatures to the post office on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Once there, your creature will ship USPS Priority Mail, which generally takes 1-3 days. A tracking number will be provided once it's at the post office. (If you order on a Tuesday or Thursday, it might go out the following ship day.)
Please note: Creatures have small parts and should be kept away from small children and pets as they could present a choking hazard. And, while reasonably durable, they are handmade and designed to sit next to your computer or on your nightstand. They’re not for rough-and-tumble play. Please look at the size dimensions of a creature before you order as the photos may make them seem smaller or larger than they actually are. Each creature comes with a printed copy of their story. Thanks for looking!
Anne's creatures are silly, weird, and awesome. Each one has a unique personality and just wants to love and be loved.
The superfluous is the most necessary.

I've been creating creatures for 20+ years. Doing so is my joyful meditative practice. And I don't 'make' creatures so much as I help their existing spirits come into being. For that reason, each creature is totally unique. My creatures are like people: sometimes anxious, sometimes confused, and full of quirky imperfections that make them completely loveable.
