New TeeFury Collection!

One of the things that struck me when I watched Inside Out was the similarities to the characters in Winnie The Pooh. I've actually had some students write papers on how the characters represent different mental health issues. It's an interesting theory...I don't know if was a conscious decision on A. A. Milne's part, or if it just works that way because children go through so many different complex emotions.

Either way, when I saw Inside Out, Sadness immediately reminded me of Eeyore. Again, I don't know if that was a conscious decision on the Pixar writers' part or if it was, again, coincidence. I'd almost be inclined to say that Inside Out and Winnie The Pooh have similar understandings and depictions of childhood emotions, so the similarities make sense.

So when my TeeFury email this morning announced a new collection called "All The Feels" which mashes up Inside Out and Winnie The Pooh, I was in love. My favorite is, of course, the Sadness/Eeyore one and I may or may not have clicked "Add To Cart." :) See the designs by artist Kat Haynes below and get yours before August 4th!
