[hamsterwoman]

Isn't it great?! (Hilariously, I have an icon with the same image :D)

[aravishermione]

What a wonderful gift!! I love the hamster!!

And I love your new things. The stuffies are all ♥ And I absolutely love the malachite box and the jewelry!

[hamsterwoman]

It is such an awesome hamster! Really, a treasure!

I have always loved malachite and I have a couple of jewelry pieces with it (although it's a soft stone and doesn't wear well), but the complexity of the whorls on a larger piece like the box is so much more interesting!

I've just come to say I totally died at the sight of your icon, so a zombie is writing it. :]

*glances a zombie glance at the actual post*
Wheee for the anteaters. XD

[hamsterwoman]

Aww, I'm glad you like the icon! I made it probably a year back, but haven't actually had a reason to use it till now :D

The anteater plushies are pretty different, considering they're about the same size and of the same animal, but I love them both. (The one with the tongue out is a hand puppet, although one cannot, sadly, control the tongue.)
