I am constantly amazed by the people who make and sell stuff over at Etsy. While I sit around all evening watching Gossip Girl and dreaming of overcoming my own inertia, they're actually making crafts and sharing them with the world. Plus, a lot of the stuff they make is downright adorable. Would anyone notice if I killed them all and stole their collective crafty powers? Wait, pretend you didn't hear that.

Anyways, this week at "OMG You Made That?" I'm honoring Esty user happycloud, who specializes in cute, huggable monsters. To my mind that combination itself constitutes awesomeness (yes, I have an Ugly Doll, yes I love it dearly). Then happycloud had to go and turn her monsters into fuzzy hats. Check it out:

The hat, which sells for $30, also comes in Shrek green and Cheetos orange. All have ears, horns, and make it look as if a colorful monster is eating your skull.

happycloud, I tip my hat -- or specifically my brain sucking craft creation -- to you.
