Yes, we’ve beaten the dead horse with all of our monkey amigurumis–so now we’re moving on to rhinestone tiger amigurumi!! Yay~

We’ve been planning on making this rhinestone tiger amigurumi for a long time now. When we made our trip to Taiwan recently, we especially went to go buy ourselves multiple sheets of multiple-colored rhinestone sheet stickers. They’re supposed to be used to decorate the interior of your car, but who says you can’t use them on anything else? :)

I started gluing on the rhinestones one by one from the top of the head and worked my way all the way down. It was quite challenging since an amigurumi is not the flattest thing in the world to be gluing things on. I had to be very careful with the placement of the rhinestones too with all the stripey business going on. But it worked somehow! Or at least I forced it too haha. :D

The idea of covering our tiger amigurumi with rhinestones actually came from a friend of ours. :) It was a VERY good idea and we’re glad we heeded their suggestion. Wonder if they remember suggesting it?

Remember our first tiger amigurumi? It looks so small compared to the rhinestone tiger amigurumi huh? All the glue and rhinestones really added some pounds to it!

This is what I looked like after gluing on two whole sheets of rhinestones. I don’t know if I really want to do that again…haha. Or maybe I do? What do you think? What would you like to see plastered with rhinestones?! :D
