Mongolian Death Worms!

Yes, that is right, then Mongolian Death Worms are arriving at Ochibo. The Ochibos are a tad nervous, since these guys could swallow an Ochibo whole, so they are laying low for a while, desperately avoiding the lightening from the worm's tail.

renegade Craft Fair-Holiday!!

Yipee! Skeletaldropkick and Ochibo will be at the wonderful Renegade Craft fair! Hanging with the kids from Wear Yeti. WHat more can you ask for! I, for one, am quite pleased :)
Keep December 19th and/or 20th open!

Ochibo Painting!

Ochibo just received the absolute-coolest painting ever. Seriously, it is so amazing. And it was free. The Ochibos liked it so much that one Ochibo has decided to go live with the artist, Ali Spagnola. He leaves today for his new home, he is so excited!

New spider pattern at OCHIBO

New Pattern at Ochibo!

So danged cute! These little guys are perfect for keeping mosquitos out of your house. And, of course, since they hang out with Ochibos, they are extra smart!

Sequoia National Monument

A couple of weeks ago, Ochibo got to go to the incredibly amazing Sequoia national monument.

This luck spider got to check out the ferns on the Marble Fork of the Kaweah River

Hang out next to the campfire

Play with the LichenMan

And visit crystal caverns

SPIDERS!

Here is the latest hatching of Microchibus Aranea. Now waiting for placement at the Ochibo Storefront!

Renegade Craft Fair in San Francisco!

Yep. WE went and had the BEST time! So much cool stuff to look at and so many great people to meet. I met a couple of people whom I had met at the maker fair and a few more whom I had sold to online and got to see in person. The Ochibos were so very happy to meet everyone and could hardly contain them selves. This one was trying to steal my muffin when I had breakfast at Townsend in SOMA... Sneaky little thing!

And here we all are before the doors opened...

The Ochibos happily shared booth space with Wear Yeti who are working on an etsy page... Go Yetis Go!

renegade Craft Fair in San Francisco!

Come see the Ochibos frolicking in person!
All go to the Renegade Craft fair in S.F. this weekend! Lotsa fun, craft and music! GO! GO! GO!

Squid-Mobile

This is a great little Lego boat made by the youngest of the Ochibo keepers at our house. I think the squid is eager to to see the oceans and visit aquatic tourist attractions. Look a the way he grips the steering wheel in anticipation!

hot days of summer...

As the temperature reaches over 100 degrees F here where the Ochibos are currently residing, their fuzzier, four legged friends are starting to lose their fur. This little ball of fur was found wondering lost outside. The Ochibos, always empathetic, decided to give it some eyes and invite it to stay with them.

Jumping Spider!!!

Ochibos LOVE jumping spiders. Especially when they scare grown men!

Ochibo eats!

Mmmm.... crepes!

Ochibo got to go to one of their favorite creperies in San Francisco a little while ago, Squat and Gobble! This little Ochibo had a great time devouring a crepe all by itself! Hungry little pup....

Indie Mart in San Francisco=fun and successful

The Ochibos enjoyed a nice infiltration of San Francisco and are eagerly awaiting their next chance to pervade the city....

So! the Mission Indie Mart (which, oddly enough was in Potrero Hill)was a lot of fun. Here is a picture on the keeper of Ochibos before the crowds hit. Look out for the random hand under the table! Gaaaahhh!!
