I've had so much going on that I totally forgot to write about it over here! I've been working to get my stores sparkling and ready for holiday shoppers, and that means almost daily work at finding or creating new things!Recently, I found some really beautiful books while I was on vacation, and I just finished putting all ten of them into my Etsy store, in the "Interesting Books" section. They all cover interesting topics, from teen-oriented piano music from the 40s to a cookbook from the 20s! Currently, music books are the largest part of the group, but if I continue to see a lot of interest, I will add more children's books to the selection over there.
Besides the poodles, I've also rolled out two new colors of walruses. Remember my bespectacled green walrus? Well, now he has two new friends, one in dark blue, and the other in dark purple. Their popularity is on the rise! I just sold a dark purple one today.
It's hard to say where the idea for walruses came from, especially as Christmas ornaments. I think I was just aiming for something unusual, and this reminded me of a storybook I must have read years ago.
I've had a lot of requests for birds over the last two years. Last year, I listed a few hummingbirds. I currently have those down while I attempt a slight redesign of their tails. Meanwhile, I have listed my very first pink flamingo, inspired by the beloved lawn ornaments invented in the 1950s.What do you think? I think she's cute. Of course, the eyelashes always help! The flamingo is actually a bit more intensely peach pink than the picture, but my camera had some trouble with the color.
I have more things planned in the coming weeks, including (I hope) several more ornaments to show you. Hope you'll stop by for a visit soon!
