Face It

I like those odd doll/stuffies that are some sort of genetic engineering experiment gone terribly wrong right. There's probably some sort of official word for them, but I haven't discovered it. You know the ones? They have stuffed animal-ish bodies and masky doll faces. There's just something so weird-but-sweet about them. Which, come to think of it, descibes most of my favorite people too.
I myself enjoy putting a babydoll face on most anything. Here are the lastest face-ums.
I can't pick a favorite. Not only because it hurts their strange little feelings, but because I'm fickle and change my mind way too easily.

  1. I love them all but that mushroom is too awesome!

  2. I like to think of them as dolly reincarnations so that they can be both human and animal--best of both. It's strange how normal it looks to see a human face on an animal, but if you reversed it, it'd be disturbing, huh?

  3. I am with you, they are all so special. I couldn't pick a favorite either.

  5. LOL! I had to laugh when I read that weird but sweet remark about some of your favorite people! Me too! Everyone is weird but sweet (or at least looks sweet! tee hee!)

    Oh! and I would never pick a favorite either! (brown little bear) Never!

  6. Hey, weird but sweet is good. And uhm, can we really make a remark like that when JUST BELOW, Old Fish Face and his "date" -- surely one of the weirdest and possibly sweetest -- are having their very own moment of glory in this pantheon of Weirdsweetville? lol.

    Gosh, Jo, happy everything and to your little face ums too. (rabbits... shhhhh)

  10. Weird but sweet is my favorite kind of doll (or person)! I am gravitating toward that little mushroom person, but in case the others are listening in, you are all fabulous! :) Pam

  11. First, THANKS for responding to my 'help' email! LOL! Must have been Yahoo last night. Whew! As for the dolls - when I was little (a hundred years ago) MOST of the stuffed animals were like that! I have an original Smokey the Bear from 1952, and his face is this waxy stuff (kind of creepy, really) but his body is (or WAS) fur. So, despite the love/hate thing with their appearances, I think I sort of favor those oldies! And YOUR creations? I ADORE them, one & all!
