Wow, I'm like trying to get the hang of blogging, but I'm so wrapped up in my shop, the items I sell, coming up with new items, etc.......... I think I'm putting too much pressure on myself to write something interesting. The most interesting thing about me is the unique items I create on a daily basis. So for instance, I have an awesome customer is France that keeps asking me to make tiny, and I mean tiny guinea pigs and various playsets. People see how tiny and detailed my work is and there in awe of what I do, but it's very time consuming. I started my shop with the unique 12" dogs and cats that I make, but somewhere down the line the economy has made me into a maker of tiny things. It seems everyone loves the dogs and cats in my shop, but they can only spend so much money. The under $10.00 items are what sells. Of course in the case of my French customer, she doesn't count because she wants lots of lower cost items. Anyway, I do miss creating my dogs and cats. I do still have lots of ideas for them. I have like 10 new dogs/cats that I will be adding to my shop by the end of the summer. STAY TUNED :D Okay, here's my latest playset for 3 little guinea pigs.

Sorry I've been away so long :(





My shop has been keeping me busy. And so has my aching neck and shoulders from all of the tiny creations I've been making. I've been selling on Etsy for 7 months now and the biggest sellers are the smaller items. Economy I guess. I have an awesome customer in France who keeps me very busy. Other than that I'm always in my product development mode. So far the summer here on the east coast has been rainy and cooler than normal. They say this week is the real start of summer for us. Hazy Hot and Humid is on it's way. I'm going to show you some pics of my tiny creations. The lady bug is just about the smallest stuffed animal I've ever made. It's actually stuffed like a regular stuffed animal. I'll be back soon!!!!!!

Wow, It's been a long time since I've blogged.






Wow, It's been a long time since I've blogged. I've found that I just don't have the time needed to put together a great blog like some that I've seen. Between the Etsy forums and some twittering here and there, I'm just trying to keep up. Of course I spend lots of time either working on my creations or in product development. (lots of sketching and thinking about what my customers are looking for). I'm always trying to come up with the next big thing. Which is still the turtle playset. It was featured in the storque, on the page that takes you to the community, chat rooms etc. and I guess alot of people saw it because my views went through the roof. Lately I've been working on low cost items, such as the turtle playset because I think people want to buy a little something for their kids, or their friends and family. Of course we know how horrible the economy is so that seems to be what's selling. So I added some tiny animals for $7.00 and under to go along with my little ninjas and finger-ling babies. I do keep adding a new dog or cat. My latest creation is Princess Woofie.

My Meghan ballerina cat made it to a treasury!

Hey! My Meghan ballerina cat made it to a treasury. Oops I guess I can't actually show the picture. Bummer:( O well it was an exciting moment anyway. Stay tuned to my blog. I'll be working on it very soon. Yesterday was figure out fan page day. (Not a good day):( I'm still kinda confused. All I know that by mistake I added lots of new fans to my personal page and made everyone of my fan page administrators. :o I was in and out of the forums till 2 am. Hence the problem with my alarm not going off and my getting up at 11:11 to be exact. Although I did briefly did wake up when my 15 yr. old daughter came into my room at seven complaining of a swollen eye (from being a mascara novice, Oh God) and had to fix her sling.(from her sprained, already been sprained 7 months ago wrist). Not to mention her 15 yr. old morning attitude. And why am I still in bed when she has to get to school? Because of her 15 yr. old attitude. That's daddys job:D I took care of her every morning until she was about 12, then I gave him the job. (That makes me happy). Uggg! That's a blog for another day. Okay so my non blog got a little bloggy. Yea good for me! I made my 3rd blog. :D

I wish it were me!




Tomorrow my nephew is going to Naples Florida for 2 weeks. For the last few years I've been going there sometimes once a year. Sometimes twice, to a condo I own a part of. I absolutely fell in love with being there. It's like my second home. I could just sit on that beach for hours, and not get tired of it. The last time I was there was last August. We stayed for a full 3 weeks and we had a blast. When I say we I mean all 9 of us. The Naples Nine. My family, my sister's family and my mom. All together in one condo. Sounds scary? Not at all. We have so much fun when we're there. I'm really bummed because I can't get there this summer. (Blame the economy). So I am glad at least my nephew can go. But It makes me wish I were there too. We all wish we could be back there. So here's some of my Naples pictures. This is what I daydream about :)
