waZi waWa ~ entry 25

Entry 25, oOooOOoo 25 whole entries into this blog. Let us take a moment to reflect on the number of waZis made so far. I think I have made probably pushing 60 or 70 waZi waWas, not all of them posted on this website. From my first waZi cat to my new waZi that I am posting today. Wow... that's a lot of stuffed animals, and I think, "was this the best use of your time?" and you know what? in my mind it is a resounding yes :-p.

But enough dilly dalling, I got some friendly inspiration for this new waZi, and yes I owe you one at some point. Introducing the waZi octopus... and octopus made of socks, socks made into a octopus, sock-octopus, soctopus ahh... there I like that... Introducing the waZi soctopus, enjoy.

waZi waWa ~ entry 24

ouf... so busy, so very busy.... I haven't really had much time to work on the waZis. But, I have to manage to make payment to my "waZi" label maker. We have a deal worked out, for every 12 labels she makes for me, I make one waZi waWa of her choice. I think I am in debt two her for two waZis and soon to be three... she already sent out her "collections agents" to seek payment... I don't think I can take anymore beatings with multicolor thread or the constant calls threatening to turn me into cotton swabs or the seemingly arbitrary making of the sun rise in the morning and set at night YES! I FEAR YOU, PLEASE STOP CONTROLLING THE SUN, I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU DO IT AND YES YES I WILL PAY SOON!!!

Okay, beyond my paranoid and semi psychotic rantings. I introduce to payment number 01, a waZi chibi totoro. A bit bland I suppose but look at the waZi tattoo on the butt, that is how you know it is quality.

waZi waWa ~ entry 23

Delong delong, as my Indonesian friends may say. Hmm I suppose I am not in dire need of help so a "delong" would suffice, actually, I don't really need help at all... I guess I just enjoy that exclamation.

Long weekend, and I managed to only create one new waZi, although I should have made two or three, but oh well c'est la vie. My friend C to the Athy visited me from SF this weekend (although I think she stayed with me out of desperation) but it was nice, she was my source of inspiration for the new waZi. Well it is just a fat pink elephant, but the similarities are astounding. Look below...
