Hi guys! Happy Spring! 🌷🪻🍄🌸👻
Maybe I’ll finally come out of hibernation. 🤭

Just wanted to pop in and say hi! I’m still here, still alive! And I wear glasses now lol. Design work has been keeping me busy and since Etsy views are 40% lower than last year, I’ve just been focusing on my new clientele, the good ol’ trusty clients, and not really doing any art markets.

Does that mean I’m no longer a night owl? No! 🦉

Instead of staying up late making new products I’ve been obsessively playing Animal Crossing (I know I am so late to the game), turning screenshots from the game into politically cathartic memes 🤓 and just generally just vibing. Which has been a nice change from the last 9 years of my business. 😌 Is it depression? Is it major burnout? Is it old age? Who knows.

I do have a couple new things I’ve made and I want to make some mystery bags of B-grade products. So there is stuff coming.

It’s just hard to feel motivated to make new things when the world feels like it’s on fire and people aren’t spending money on things they don’t really need the way they used to.

So yeah. That’s my update nobody asked for. You all hangin’ in there? 🖤

Working on ornament orders through the weekend! 🎅🏼 I love seeing all the support for small shops. 🖤 Small businesses can all use the support this holiday season after what was a much slower year for many. Your support does not go unappreciated! 🫶🏼

Despite this being my first year of not selling in person, there’s still some magic for me when I’m making your ornaments and filling orders of the fun small stuff like stickers, sticky notes, bookmarks, etc … so thank you!! 🥰

Here’s a silly little guide of items all under $10 to help percolate some ideas for the gap fillers of your gifting. Free local pickup is available and everything is shipping out as quickly as possible. 💌 Link to my shopify is in my bio. 🤍

Have you started gift shopping yet? 👀

Cards are up in the shop, ornaments drop tomorrow! But who cares bc today we eat.
