i’ve had my eye on trigo‘s monster coin purses for a while, and i finally got the chance to chat with the monster maker at the nokomis urban craft fair a few weeks ago. she makes these little guys as her day job, and she’s got a great selection of recycled materials that she works with. i bought one for myself that looks a lot like scrappy the recycled tire coin purse (pictured above). in addition to holding coins, he’s also a great cat toy! my kitty won’t stop batting him around the house.

I know some five-year old nieces who would dig those!

coolio. I have jewellery made out of old bike tyres
this monster reminds me a bit of the hyperbole and a half drawing style… do you know her blog? (she’s on a bit of a hiatus right now)
