This collection started back in 2011 with my playful, kawaii mini felt heads, each hand-embroidered and unique in their own way. They were originally created as brooches or keychains, featuring all sorts of characters: rabbits, foxes, skulls, stars, robots, monkeys, frogs, pigs, chinchillas, mice, tigers, and more.
I currently have two of these in my shop: a pig head and a frog head.
Later on, I worked on a special order for a craft boutique on Norfolk Island (between Australia and New Zealand), where I created a series of small cow heads, each with its own unique charm.
Over time, I also ventured into making larger fabric portraits, inspired by taxidermy and Pop Culture, to hang on the wall:
- A large Goldorak head (fan art) in felt, embroidered by hand—a project that took me weeks to complete.
- A Wonder Woman head (fan art).
More recently, for my stand at the 2024 Fantasy Festival in Esbjerg, I worked on portraits to hang on walls, using crochet and embroidery hoops, with yarn or cotton thread:
- A Cthulhu head (fan art).
- A Frida Kahlo head.
This theme of plush taxidermy characters—mixing the unsettling concept of taxidermy with the cuteness of amigurumi or plush toys—is something I find amusing. Though my creations don’t look “dead,” I love playing with that contrast of creepy and cute. I’m currently developing more crochet “taxidermy” characters, but I won’t reveal more just yet!
Please note that these are decorative collectibles, not toys. Due to small parts, they are not suitable for young children and should be handled with care.
