May I Have Your Autograph?

I made this darling elephant pillow for a sweet Etsy client. She requested it through "alchemy", where Etsy customers ask for a custom made item, a la classified ad style, and I won the bid! She is having an Elephant themed birthday party for her DD and wanted a White Elephant pillow to be used as an autograph pillow!
I made her out of white canvas with minimal details, (handpainted), and a little pink bow on her tail! I have to admit that I considered keeping her! I am so pleased at how she turned out! But, oh well, I have to send her off to the party on Monday!

Goose Ruffles!!!

This is a new dress I listed on Etsy. I say it is a new dress, but I used to do a similiar design on my handknit cotton sweaters way back in the beginning of my career... years, and years ago.
I love geese and ducks! I thought this reminded me of a storybook style of illustration. I have always been a fan of clothing for children that has some unusual art treatment such as this! The shabby ruffles on the hem inspired the name!

WoooooHooooo! New Promo on Etsy!!

I just made my 90th sale on Etsy! So, I am counting down (or is it up?) to my 100th Etsy sale! I am going to give a special surprise item to my 100th customer in addition to FREE shipping for that order! I will randomly add a freebie to some of the next 10 orders in celebration of my goal of 100 sales! I am so excited since only a few months ago I was wondering if I should keep on pushing this shop. Thanks so very much to all of my Wonderful Etsy customers! YAY!

What is With The Inchworms???

There are thousands of these creepy little inchworms all over everything around here! I noticed them a couple of weeks ago when they were tiny, but now they are bigger and fatter and getting very pushy! They are literally on everything! They are even coming inside the house! I do not remember them being so plentiful in years past! At first we thought they were cute, but now...I don't know... they just keep coming! We live in the woods, maybe that's why so many, but geez! Enough!!!

So, anyway, I listed several new paintings on Etsy yesterday. Check those out. And let me know if the inchworms are taking over your world as well. .....
THERE'S ONE NOW!!!
