I AM NOT GONE!

Here is a way over do update! I started a new job back in early February that I actually love. I went from stay at home mom to working 40-50 hour week. 50 more often than not. I unfortunately put a 2.5 inch nail through my thumb a little over 2 weeks ago which has slowed things down a bit but it is healing nicely and I hopefully will be back to full capacity soon.

My divorce has been dragging out painfully and more so due to our lawyers than us I think but, it should hopefully be done this coming week.

We have to be moved out of the current house by the end of July so we have been slowly packing and looking at house. I can't make any official moves on buying a place to everything is done with the divorce.

Its all been a lot!

Ive not had a lot of time for anything crafty and at this point most of my craft stuff is in storage. I am excited that several of the house we have looked at have some great options for a designated craft area! Hopefull I will be able to get back to making stuff once we are done moving and get stuff set up! I have so many projects that need finished and SO MANY THING I WANT TO MAKE!

Once we are moved and settled in one of our first goals is gonna be to get the 3D printer back up and running so I can start working towards getting small knick knack stuff going for sale as v will as some of the really cool bigger printed critters going. While those go I can always be working on other stuff!

Overtime at work is looking to be drying up soon and being able to focus on my crafts will hopefully be a good source of extra income.

So please be patient with me if you have stuff you are interested in me making. I want to get back at out and I miss working on it.

Happy New Year everyone! May it be a beauitful and bountiful year.
Christmas was crazy this year, but everything has followed that trend here lately! Flu tried tontake us out and with my health issues its worn me out. We managed a small but enjoyable Christmas for the boys here at home. I am extremely grateful to my family and partner. I dont know what I would do without them.
We brought the New Year in at home with just immediate family. We let the boys stay up for the first time and the oldest child got super excited over the "champaign" toast at midnight. He made sure we all had glass cups to toast with.
Anyways, I keep forgetting to post my Christmas commissions picture! I don't think I will ever take a commission on this style bag but it came out very cute.
I also had a thought, if I could set it up, would people like to be able to watch me work? Let me know!
Once more Happy New Year to everyone!

So.... I don't know why PayPal business on my phone is being mean but it won't let me make listing for the few dragons I have for sale. Soooo...... here they are with prices. Shipping is included!

These are being sold "as is" since they have been used as show dragons and may have some minor wear on them.

Message me if you are interested. I will mark them as sold as they go.

Custom order going together for a Brooklyn bag! This is going to be the smaller version from the one I have pictured previously. Exciting to see how this combination is coming together!

Also, I have a few dragons that I am going to be posting soon. These will be discounted because they are "not perfect". I will try to get those photos taken and posted ASAP!

My life has been turned upside down recently..... it is amazing how quickly things can change. While a lot of what is going on right now is really hard, there has been a lot of relief and release that has come with! However, My finances are not! 🤦‍♀️

I am needing work! As it is the holidays, most places aren't hiring or it's just temp work. Ive got three kids and scheduling around them is hard for that kind of work.

I have skills! My skills are also great for people looking for unique gifts for friends or family! I am available to take a few commissions orders.

If anyone is looking for a custom purse, backpack, or wallet, I'm your woman!

If anyone is looking for a chain mail dragon..... I am also your woman.

Please message me if you are interested in placing a order.

I've added images of the kind of stuff I can make but if you have an idea of something else that falls in these categories..... let me know!

*edit*I do not have a current price list going, but I will start working one up again. I can say that large chainmail dragon start at $150+ (prices vary based on materials used) small dragons start at $100+ and Keychain dragons start at $50.

Bags are tricker to price but the bag with the Racoon would be $150 with a common fabric and the cork but if I were to remake that same bag now (I can't but I do have a similar print) it would be more like $225 due to the rarity of that fabric. The Alice and Wonderland backpack would be $250 with standard fabric and the cork. The snails bag is $175 in standard fabric and cork. Once more thaf one is made with rare fabric and would be a lot more due to that fact.

I hope that helps give an idea of cost.

Thank you all my Facebook lovelies!

Lot has been going on lately and haven’t gotten a lot of crafting done! New year has a lot of exciting things in store. I’m starting to lean away from Facebook privately as well as with my business. Please follow me over to BlueSky!
