Spirithoods-adorable fuzzy animal hats

So a couple months ago, my BFF started posting pictures on facebook of herself wearing these cute, fuzzy hats. I didn’t really know what they were. When I went to visit her the next time, she shows me the website.

I thought ‘Man those things are expensive!’ but they were cute. At this point, I was TRYING not to buy anything and save up…thus Ive been MIA from the forums *shifty eyes* Then…

you know, the strongest selling point is sampling. Try this wine! Try this soup! Try this new cleaning product, all for free!

So…
she puts one of her Spirithoods on my head.

Lawdy. It was so nice! I mean, yes, it’s a fuzzy hat…but in the way that Windstones are “just” dragon statues. (lol el oh el) It had a thick, nice liner, the fur was SUUUUPER soft, and putting my hands in the “paw-kets” (pockets, get it!?) felt nice and kept them warm. I decided then that I needed one. They’re kind of addicting.

What I like about the community is that if you collect these things, you’re a “tribe member” and the community is so welcoming and kind, in general. Kinda like you fine folks <3 It's weird to me though, because people will trade something that is sold out for a brand new release...so its almost like trading an ebay piece for a production piece. The mentality is that "There's something I want and I don't have money at the moment, but I have this thing to trade" which is kinda cool. The "pack"/family mentality is pretty cool. Granted, because of the young demographic, there is some occasional childish drama, but hey, isn't that everywhere? *shugs*

They are great too, because in addition to being warm (some aren't so thick, like the Aurora Kitty) I have been trying to wear them out in public...on the way to work, to the store, etc. I am too concerned with how other people (strangers) see me, and in reality, I shouldn't care so much about these complete strangers I'm passing by and will never see again...so yes, I get weird looks, but it is helping me to not care so much, little by little to gain some confidence and let my freak flag fly 🙂

The company its self is pretty great too-kinda like Windstone. Made in America, human, reachable. If you comment on their facebook page or send them an email they typically respond within an hour-slower through email but same day.

This one was just released this past Monday

I just though you guys would like these ^_^
