Humphrey: Humphrey is sometimes told by his swamp creature friends that he looks smug. But he can't help his face. He has a subtle mouth, and he's okay with that. His favorite qualities are his ability to do celebrity impressions, his clever wit, and his mind full of odd trivia. Although he lives in a swamp, Humphrey does enjoy the finer things in life and sometimes pays midnight visits to the houses in the hills in order to borrow a hot tub for the night. Once in, he cranks up the jets and lets the bubbles soothe his sometimes weary creature-frog bones. Once in a while he invites his friend Jake, the local water snake, to join him. Other times, her prefers to sit in solitude and ponder the cosmos.
Materials: Sock, glass eyes, small metal belly button, recycled findings for butt, dried beans and polyfil.
Color: Humphrey ia actually a darl teal-green. The photos make him look a bit lighter than he actually is.
Size: Humphrey is about 10.5 inches with legs extended. In sitting position he is about 7.5 inches tall. Arm span is about 6 inches.
Shipping: $12 (Note: 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 usually is 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 larger or smaller 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.
