Plush You, and you and you!

Knock knock...Who's there? Holy-awesome-radness! (And it's kicking in the door!)
We're crazy excited to say that Fluffy Goodness will be participating in this year's Plush You! Gallery show in October!!! For those who have not yet learned of the greatness that is Plush You!, you can check it out here. It's a show run by Schmancy store owner Kristen Rask and as far as we're concerned, it's the most respected show in the community...and we're honored to be a part of it this year! So thank you Kristen, now we're off to create stuff until we tucker ourselves out!

Winning.

As Charlie Sheen subtly reminded me, I almost forgot to post this awesome news! Fluffy Goodness was awarded an Editor's Choice Award at the 2010 New York Maker Faire!!! This pretty much made our day, scratch that, month! We had a blast and quite a few creatures found new homes that day. Thank you to Chris Connors for this fantastic honor :)

Maker Faire!

Hey there everyone! I'm more than excited to announce that Fluffy Goodness will be setting up a creature adoption center at the BUST Magazine booth at this weekend's Maker Faire!!! The fair is being held on the old world's fair grounds in Queens, NY. How rad is that? Very rad!

We'll be there on Sunday the 26th and we'll have plenty of creatures who can't wait to be unconditionally loved! (They've been a bit fidgety lately, pacing around the workshop pondering who will adopt them. It keeps them up at night and it's getting a bit distracting.) So come on out and adopt one this weekend! If you can't make it out this weekend you can always adopt them here or order a custom one!

I'd also like to give a HUGE thank you to the lovely ladies at BUST for all their support, especially Susan Juvet for organizing these Craftaculars and Emily Dirienzo for featuring Fluffy Goodness in the vendor spotlight! You ladies rock!

Not Yo Mama-Rama!

This weekend we had a smashing good time! Fluffy Goodness was happy to be a vendor at the second annual Not Yo Mama's Craft Fair. Kat Hulka once again made for an awesome booth-mate helper (as you can see above). I want to personally thank the organizers Sophie Penkrat, Leah Siegel-Picus and Megan Gülick. These ladies rock and pulled off an amazing event! The live bands were rockin', the food was delicious and the fans! What can I say, it was so great meeting all of you. I appreciate all of your business, lots of creatures found good homes this weekend. Thanks again to everyone, I'll keep you posted on where we'll turn up next!

Not Yo Mama!

It's April and Craft Season is finally here! Fluffy Goodness is proud to be a vendor this year at "Not Yo Mama's Craft Fair" in Jersey City, NJ. I'm looking forward to meeting a bunch of cool new people. If you're in the area, be sure to stop on by and check out some of the new "Siblings" I've been working on. They're bound to make even your gloomiest day bright! (Note: This is not a guarantee, I've just heard good things.)

There's going to be a bunch of bands and good food to snack on too, oh, and raffles! Everybody likes a good raffle! It all starts at 11am and goes until 6pm on April 17th.

Hope to see ya there!

On the horizon

Check out Deanna Peluso and her beau and their newest family member "Bun Bun!" Thanks for sharing guys, you look great, who says you need pants to be classy? Not Bun Bun, that's for sure!

On another note, I've applied to a nice handful of craft fairs for this upcoming summer season and we're playing the waiting game. We'll let you know where you can pick up some Fluffy Goodness locally as soon as we know!

On a side note, a handful of creatures just shipped out to ShopSCAD down in Savannah, GA for a photo shoot. Those jet setters are striking a pose to be in the upcoming store catalog! Good for them, they must have a great agent.

More as it develops...

BUSTing with Holiday Goodness! (pt.2)

This year's BUST Holiday Craftacular in NY was a smashing hit! Fluffy Goodness was out in full force and we had a fantastic time! It was great meeting so many fans and seeing new faces, everyone was so nice. The music was fun and it put people in good spirits. There were so many people, the line to get in was wrapped around the block! I got to meet a bunch of really talented artists and even picked up a few awesome items for myself.

Thank you to everyone who adopted a new Fluffy friend! Thanks to Susan Juvet for putting the show together along with her helpful staff. Thanks to Kat Hulka for being the best booth mate and constant supporter of all things Fluffy! Thanks to all my friends who showed up too!

I'm happy to announce the arrival of a bunch of new Siblings up for adoption in the Fluffy Goodness Adoption Center! Go have a look around. Orders placed before the 16th can still make it to you before Christmas.

Also, if you were one of the lucky adopters and you'd like to take a picture of you and your new friend, I'd be happy to include you in the Testimonials section. :)

Danish love for Fluffy Goodness!

Recently I was contacted by Danish editor Kristina Beyer of Danish magazine BoligLiv. I am happy to report that our own "Bolin" (pictured above in the highlighted area) was featured as the face of Fluffy Goodness! With a short blurb about where he came from, the article "Stuffed Monsters vs. Aliens" in the October 2009 issue is a good read...sure it's not in a language I fully understand but I pretty much got the gist and I couldn't be happier! Thanks Kristina! Hej til alle mine nye venner!

Renegade Wrap Up!

Hello! It's been a week since the Renegade Fair in Brooklyn and I'm happy to report it was a success! We had a great time meeting tons of people and thankfully we had plenty of adoptions. I feel good knowing that so many creatures now have a good home. It was really great meeting all of you who stopped by! Your enthusiasm for Fluffy Goodness was really encouraging. Thanks for all the compliments and support. :) The weather couldn't have been better and the turnout was exactly as we had hoped. We had plenty of "Free Sexy Gumballs" for everyone and giant Pixi-Stix for all who adopted.

It was also great to meet lots of really cool vendors such as Jessica from Cherry Box Studios, Brian from Participate, the folks at Charmingwall, the lovely ladies at 3 Story Design, Garbella, and the dudes at Seattle Show Posters. Also, I ran into fellow animator Will Krause and we did a little art swap. He got a Byno (aka white furry tooth) and I got some of his awesome comics and a DVD of his shorts. Fantastic!

Special thanks go out to a nice young lady named Cait for adopting "Harriet" the giant Squin. Her donation of $55 will be going to the Big Brothers Big Sisters organization. That coupled with the $45 previously donated will make for a nice $100 to the charity. Thank you very much for that!

In the next week I'll be putting a bunch of the little guys who are still around up on Etsy so be sure to check back and see what's what!

p.s. a huge special thanks go out to Kat Hulka and Chris Pau for waking up at the butt crack of dawn and helping me out both days. You guys are the best! Thanks to everyone for helping to spread the Goodness!

Up For Adoption!

Seven Siblings are up for adoption on Etsy! www.fluffygoodness.etsy.com These guys won't be at the Renegade Craft Fair so if you have a semi-stable home life and find yourself lacking happiness in your life, you can cheer up and adopt them here. They've all had their shots and won't pee on your fancy rugs, that's a promise.

Follow the Goodness!

Hellooooo! Do you often find yourself wondering what Fluffy Goodness is up to right now? Or do you catch the words,"if only there were a place where I could share my undying love for Fluffy Goodness with others..." If so, it's perfectly normal to have thoughts like these at your age. Thankfully, through modern technology, there's a solution!

You can go become a fan of Fluffy Goodness on Facebook!
Or, for somehow even instanter gratification, you can follow me on Twitter!

I hope everyone had a great long relaxing weekend! Finally, it's starting to smell like summer!

Cut to the finish line!

It turns out, making 400 of anything is hard. Seems like a no-brainer...but not when I decided to do it! I'm working my butt off to get the "New Class" of kids ready for Renegade. Here's a production shot of some pre-cut Greans and Squin Tentacles! More production pics to come :)

On another note, I like working to a soundtrack...Tonight among other bands, I've been listening to The Fashion. I suggest you check them out! Sure, their beats are infectious but would you really want a cure? Not if you like awesome music. Plus their multi-talented front man Jakob Printzlau directs their awesome videos!

Fluffy Goodness at Renegade!!!

I'm excited to announce that this summer you can find Fluffy Goodness at the 5th annual Renegade Craft Fair in Brooklyn, NY!!! The fair is a juried show consisting of 200 artists with not-so-traditional crafts. It's a ton of fun so I invite you to come down and check it out. This year's fair is June 6 and 7 from 11am - 7pm, at McCarren Park. Come show your love for handmade and stop by my booth to say hi! (more info to come as it gets closer) A big thank you goes out to Sue and Danny for letting me join in all the fun!

New Site Launch!

March 20th, 2009

I'm proud to announce the delicious* launch of the brand new FluffyGoodness.com website! (It's still got that new site smell.) It's still in its early stages and I plan to update it in the coming weeks with more animation and loads more content from the old site. Until then, I hope you enjoy what you see...feel free to drop me a line and if you'd like, Adopt!



*Note: Fluffy Goodness should not be ingested. If swallowed, contact a doctor immediate because you just ate fabric, polyester stuffing and plastic buttons. None of which is a part of this complete breakfast.

Long Gone!

Fat City Reprise - Long Gone from Cesar Kuriyama on Vimeo.
December 8th, 2008

Hey there!

I hope everyone is having a great holiday season filled with good food and merriment….or at least some peppermint schnapps. I’m excited to share with you the first appearance of Fluffy Goodness in a sweet new music video! The video was directed by the talented Cesar Kuriyama for the band Fat City Reprise. The video premiered just over a week ago in Philadelphia and the band had an amazing performance. The video is now online and since hitting the net it has really taken off. It’s been covered by Wired Magazine’s blog, Gizmodo.com, Digg.com and plenty more! I invite you all to check it out and if you like it, pass it along to your friends. The video is unique in that it was shot entirely with a digital camera using 45,000 photos. I created the main (non-human) character called “Poppy.” The animation was done by Cesar and the whole project took around 14 months to complete as he worked on it in his spare time. Great job to all who were involved in this project!

Music Vide-oh!

March 4th, 2008

I’m happy to announce that later in the year some Fluffy Goodness will be featured in a music video for a band from Philly! I was asked by the director to create two Customs that will have a major role in the narrative that takes place in the video. I can’t talk too much about it now but I’ll gladly post more when it’s completed. Until then, above is a peek at our main star. A big thanks goes out to Cesar Kuriyama for his help in making this happen!
