Let's get away from sleigh bells, let's get away from snow

Let's make a break some Christmas, Dear, I know the place to go

How'd ya like to spend Christmas on Christmas Island?

How'd ya like to spend the holiday away across the sea?

How'd ya like to spend Christmas on Christmas Island?

How'd ya like to hang a stocking on a great big coconut tree?

How'd ya like to stay up late, like the islanders do?

Wait for Santa to sail in with your presents in a canoe

If you ever spend Christmas on Christmas Island

You will never stray for everyday

Your Christmas dreams come true

How'd ya like to stay up late like the islanders do?

If you ever spend Christmas on Christmas Island

You will never stray, for everyday

Your Christmas dreams come true

On Christmas Island your dreams come true

Aww I didn't know this song, it's lovely :D I would very much like to spend the holidays on a nice tropical island indeed. Merry christmas to you too 💕

Do you take orders anywhere outside of Etsy? I want the Gävlebocken sweater from your shop, but I feel bad buying from Etsy since the fees for sellers are so high

Hi ! I appreciate your support 🥹You can DM me for placing an order directly, and I'll generate a PayPal invoice. I am also setting up a Ko-fi shop, but it's still quite incomplete right now... 😅 Let me know what you'd prefer 💕

Happy winter solstice to my fellow Northen Hemisphere friends 💖

Gavlebocken sweater and earrings available on my shop ✨

While it’s not everyone’s favorite, I think mister Nandor Wants-to-be-a-human-and-is-an-80s-pop-culture-amateur got his ideal documentary ending…

[tapiocats]

🦇 I'm not tagging this as the silly vampire show's name so I don't add to the current tags chaos 😅

I'm glad some people liked the finale ! I'm a bit more reserved...

Do not click read more if you haven't seen the finale !

I actually loved the genuine moments between Guillermo and Nandor. The end with the secret lair was really cute ! It's probably my favorite part of the episode with Nadja being very present and funny this week.

But personally the laugh tracks in the hypnosis and the fact that it wasn't really anything meaningful to the actual story really made me feel like the writers were making fun of the fans for wanting *some* nandermo.

Like it could only happen in an entierely unrelated different show. "Haha no way it would make sense with actual Guillermo and Nandor. What a silly idea !"

It wasn't very fun to me :< It's not the characters I know, with the story we've seen, and it wasn't treated with the care I would expect from a finale.

And also ???? A casual MAGA joke ??? Way to ruin a character 😭

So it kind of killed my creative drive sadly 😅I was planning on making a cute little end clap animation but now I don't really have the motivation to do that for now.

Maybe later ? But for now I feel sad that one of my favorite show, a safe place, made me feel embarassed for wanting something as a fan.

And while I am a diehard nandermo fan, I never really cared that much about a Nandermo canonisation. I liked episode 10, and having them being best bros is fine by me :') It's just... The whole joking around an actual queer relationship feels bad for me.

And they didn't even hug asdfghj

Anyway,

I love the fandom theories and ideas so I'll probably keep enjoying the show through you all's stories and fanarts ❤️ I met wonderful people here and I hope this space will stay fun and creative after the finale storm calms down.

I made gavlebocken earrings this year :D

Decay exists as an extant form of life

A Guidor(?) origin story

A fun little idea I had, what if Nandor got their initials all wrong ? :’)

I just finished this design, but sadly I won't have the time to order a sample before Halloween :<

So I was wondering... would any of you still be interested in a vampire-themed knitted cardigan after October 31st ? 🦇

Idk if it’s just me but i really do find tumblr to be one of the most enjoyable places to post art. Like the engagement and ability to leave tags has always made me feel a lot more connected to the people interacting with my art. I love snooping through peoples tags and seeing how something i created fits into their collections, or just how they feel about it in general. Idk, it’s just always been my favorite. Thanks to everyone who shares and enjoys my art, you guys are the coolest :)))

(No spoilers please I haven’t caught up with the manga yet :>)

Bonus doodle under the cut, because I couldn’t help myself hehe
