Weepuls!

A lot of folks hand out random trinkets they've hand-crafted or custom ordered for the '80s cruise. For 2019 I wanted to hand out those fuzzy little alien guys we used to get in grade school when we did a good job on something. Problem was, I had NO idea what they were called. After wasting a substantial amount of time on Google I learned that they are called Weepuls and they originated in 1971, but minimums are high and they aren't cheap. "No problem!" I say, "I'm crafty!"

So I used my Cricut Maker to cut out the sticky-backed foam feet, glued some pom-poms and googly eyes down, and used silk flower "stamen" for the antennae. The ribbon was custom printed by a seller on Etsy.
