flickr friday - Hasenpfeffer Incorporated

i'm starting something new today... one of the things i love best about this community (aside from the depth and breadth of the talent and the way crafters become "friends" even from across the continent or around the globe) is the fact that each and every day i can find something new and handmade to just make me smile. that warm and fuzzy feeling, y'know? well, now every friday i'm going to share things that make me smile with you.

first up: Hasenpfeffer Incorporated. i came across Daniela and Chris's amazing textural plush with their intense-but-subdued color and i-must-pinch-their-cheeks faces a few months ago on flickr and fell in love. they're just the right combination of kawaii, folk, and vintage, and i want every single one of them. even better, they're made from re-purposed clothing! i even love their shop announcement:
After washing it, we breathe new life into it. Bits of an old wool coat may awaken as a wombat. A parakeet in polyester? Perfectly normal! You may even find a little linen in a llama if you look hard enough.
check out Hasenpfeffer Incorporated on etsy, or on flickr. i promise you'll smile.
