Spooky Daddy: Unique Handmade Plush Toys

Laura wrote about Spooky Daddy Toy Co. the other day, but I like their stuff so much I had to get my own word in. They make some awesome plush monsters and animals. Each one is made lovingly by-hand by one (fiendishly clever) father. He makes them all on his sewing machine, taking care to make each one completely baby safe. The monsters all have great stories behind them too. Take Mr. Tum Tum here:

Mr. Tum Tum is the man who lives in you belly. He decides what becomes vitamins for your body, and what becomes poop! Everyone has their own and each one looks different. depending on your diet and personality. But as different as they all may be all TumTums have one thing in common. They all have alotta poop on their minds! All of this poop thinkin has even caused a growth on top of their heads called a Poopador.

Each monster is totally unique — they're each made without a pattern from soft fleece with nothing glued on. There's lots to see at the Spooky Daddy Etsy Shop, and at the Spooky Daddy website as well.
