Jennifer Strunge is the mastermind behind Cotton Monsters. Made from thrift-store leftovers, they’re equal parts cute and freaky. And even though Strunge emphasizes they’re more art and less kids’ toys, I definitely think they’d make a great gift for the little ones (or your 36-yr old cousin who’s obsessed with Juxtapoz and Kid Robot). Check out more from the Cotton Monsters line and a pretty sweet write-up with the artist herself on Jail Break.
