So seeing as it's only a few days after Thanksgiving, you know I've already started my Christmas shopping

First I found a lovely card that will show up whatever artsy-beautiful one my dad picks for his gifts and then...

look what I found!

For anyone who still has a crazy passion for stuffed animals (much like myself) you can find these little guys at monsterfactory.net.

Each one has its own personality and eyes that say "please take me home." But in all seriousness the collectable stuffies are favored by people such as Kanye West, other less well-known celebrities, etc, you get the idea. They were also featured in Rolling Stone's 2010 Holiday Gift Guide.

Go on the website to learn about each monster's personality (par example: "Magnus enjoys country music and gets sentimental during the holiday season") and then check out the minis of each monster when you figure out the astronomical price tag on most of the larger ones.

Happy holidays!
