Okay - a Tuxedo Pritten by the name of Patience (she will catch her tail eventually, she really will!) and her Pritten Pet Archibald Hedgehog:

Nice work and more impresive in person! (I have had the pleasure of seeing some of these)

I am really liking the Pritten toys! The Prittens are wonderful too of course!

THANKS!!!

Current Pritten at auction is in a bidding war between two of my collectors!! Both already own two Prittens each and one has actually adopted three but the third one got sent to her sister. :)

Can't say that I have seen any advantage to having double listed to the cat figurine category (was the only appropriate alternate category that I could find). Perhaps if I get some new bidders before the end of the auction. We'll see!

Have made a point of mentioning the Pritten Toy in the auction blurb I just wrote up for Patience and Archibald. Can't believe that at a starting price of $4.95 I haven't gotten even one bid on the toy so far!

Thanks!!!

Two of my collectors were bidding against one another - the battle ended about 2 hours before the end of the auction and while I am pleased, the bids didn't go really high. Certainly better than some of the Prittens' prices but considerably lower than the best I have gotten so far.

I didn't look at the bidding war, but I just looked and you already have a bid on your other Pritten.

THANKS!!!

Well, I'm not going to auction any more Pritten Toys - they hardly get any hits and no bids so far. I'll save them for bidders who pay a really good price on the Prittens! :)

This is HIRU (he roo) and his shroom:

He squirmed a lot but we finally agreed on this pose! lol!!!

Oh Jeanne...priceless! He should get the big bidders. His eyes are gorgeous too. Did you find a new supplier?

Thanks Beth!!! :) :) :)

Same supplier - slightly larger eyes. I've been painting the backs of the clear eyes with acrylic ink but I've been using metalic acrylic ink and I think I will try just opaque on the next one - these came blue and the blue is just opaque, no glittery stuff. Hiru's eyes were also "lidded" because they were larger.

Still have to come up with a neato auction description but I'll work on that this evening. Now I need to go do some more laundry! lol!!!
