I swear the people designing the 2005 furby battery compartment asked themselves, "How can I make inserting batteries the most nerve-wracking experience possible?"
I made this guy years ago but I still love him. All it takes is hot glue and inspiration to make your dreams come true 😩🌈🦄✋👁️👄👁️🤚
ok but legitimately i think the reason why kids aren’t taking internet safety seriously is because the people who are telling us not to put our personal information out seem so out of touch. no one acknowledges the possibility of meeting very real teenaged friends online, they always say that everyone you meet is a 40 year old white man in disguise. because they aren’t acknowledging things we know are true, it becomes a lot easier to dismiss the rest of what they’re saying as well. internet safety lessons absolutely must keep up with the times and acknowledge the internet’s capacity for good if you want kids to take to heart warnings about its capacity for bad.
oh my god.
It's hard being a single father with so many mouths to feed 😪

Here’s a furby buddy pattern! I modified @pocket-furbs super awesome pattern (you can find it right here!) there were a couple of minor errors in the pattern pieces (that were addressed in the post) so i thought i’d draw up my own thing with some slight edits!

lately i've been thinking of making oddbodies since I got a sewing machine but getting faceplates from etsy or depop is not really accesible for me so I made a faeplate mold out of hot glue and thought it may be useful for someone out there :D
MATERIALS:
- glue sticks (I needed 2 for a mcdonald's keychain size faceplate)
-a pot
-water
-a furby
-paper tape
-flour, baby powder or anything you have to demold
STEPS:
~select the furby you want to replicate the face from.
~once you have your furby cover around its face with paper tape so the fur won't get stuck to the hot glue.
~cover the furby's face with something to make the demolding easier (I used flour because it's what I found)
~now, heat up water in the pot (it's not necessary to boil it) and melt the glue sticks there until they are maleable enough. I used this video as a guide
~once the glue is maleable (careful bc it's hot) cover the furby's face with it pressing enough for it to reach all the nooks and crevices.
-let it cool for a couple minutes
~take the mold out of the furby face and that's it.
now you have a mold to make vegan furby creations :))
I hope this is helpful and understandable (english is not my first language sorry for any mistake :C ) my asks are open if you have any questions :)
