Crimmas Creeptid Alert! Do you know about the Tomte or Nisse? A tomten is traditionally a small, elf-like being who watches over a farm, particularly at night. In the Christmas tradition, known as the jultomte or "Yule tomte," they deliver presents, and are sometimes depicted as delivering gifts and being the Swedish version of Santa Claus. Leaving a bowl of rice porridge (julgröt) with butter out for the tomten on Christmas Eve is a traditional way to thank them for their protection and ensure good luck for the household. If the tomten is not given their Christmas offering, they may play tricks on the family. Elf on the shelf is also a version of the tomte!

I'll be doing a few more of these guys for fun :)

Honored to be chosen to memorialize a sweet fur baby. After losing one recently as well, it really hits home. Thanks for the trust again ❤️

I was absolutely head over squeals when my client chose me to do this project. @therealelvira is one of my absolute heros and it was an honor to portray our queen of screams on one of my awesome folks!

I've met Elvira in person a few times and she is an absolute gem of a person with the best raunchy humor around. I hope she likes what we came up with!!

ALL of my heros are weirdos. 💜

Who thinks Halloween should be every day?

Mirrored things can be hard to photograph.

Designed, cut, assembled, fit, finished all by me!

Yes it's up for grabs! Comment if you'd like to know how little it is.
