To celebrate receiving this amazing plush goodness, we are dedicating this blog to the inspiration; Heidi Kenney. Heidi is an extremely talented crafting machine from Pennsylvania who has been filling our lives with plush creations since launching her company My Paper Crane in 2001. And if you think she spends her times constructing paper building sites you'd be wrong. Heidi has the unbelievable ability to take totally inanimate objects and bring them to life by giving them happy faces or sometimes tears. No matter how boring the object, one touch of My Paper Crane and it is instantly turned to magic. Yes Heidi has even managed to make a toilet and loo roll look cute and cuddly. Don't believe us? Check out her site and watch the magic unfold.
We have been very lucky here at Oaf towers to get our hands on some Kenney classics including the Chocolate and Strawberry donut cushions and wonderfully Yummy Donut Keychains. Heidi's work is constantly featured in exhibitions, art shows and crafty events worldwide and she has designed everything from skate boards to an entire range of pocket mirrors. Her works have even featured in our exhibitions, check out her superb contributions to Pimp My Pump and The Monster Burp exhibitions below.
The My Paper Crane site has a very prolific blog filled to the brim with delicious images that will leave you feeling a giddy with excitement. If you would like to get hold of a My Paper Crane original then there is a small selection of plush goodies available on her site.
If this doesn't make you want to get out your sewing machine then we don't know what will!
In tune with the launch of the donuts, we have put our old favourite I Like Donut T's back online just for you at the bargainous price of £5!
