Big News!

I have some big news, something I finally did that I've been meaning to do forever! Yesterday I finally listed some critters in my Etsy shop! It took me six hours to list nine plushy critters, but now it's done--whew! Am I glad that project is finished!


Only two of the stuffies in my Etsy shop are pre-made: that's the banana slug and the pair of love worms(!). The others are all made to order (I'm keeping my originals, since they are ongoing characters in my miniature vignettes). Each critter takes me approximately four hours to make, and that doesn't include the time it takes me to source and process my (mostly recycled and vintage) materials (or all the time it takes me to list items--just kidding!).



There will be more big news tomorrow or the next day. I will have something more to tell you all. Hope you have a beautiful and lovely day. Until next time.... xoxo Jennifer

  1. Jennifer - the Etsy shop looks great! Love all the pics you took of the critters next to furniture and other stuff. You should put a link on the right side of your blog.

    Maybe you'll get faster at posting :) I'm sure it will be worth the effort. Etsy shoppers are going to love your little guys!

  2. Thanks Knotty By Nature! I have a little picture of my kitty with a link to my Etsy shop, but I love those apps where several items from a person's Etsy shop are in boxes. Anyone know if this is an Etsy app or a Blogger app, or from somewhere else? :-)

  3. Hi! Wanted to let everyone know that I found the app I was looking for--it is called Mini Etsy, on Etsy. Thanks for that suggestion, Knotty By Nature. As you can see, now I have my shop listings on my sidebar! Woohoo!
