For me, it's the small details that I love -- the nose on the little man, the way the chicken is all tall and thin, the patchwork ears on the elephant, the crossed arms on the fat lady. Nice work. Here's a pat on the back from me, too. I really love the toys.

I totally relate to your entry......afraid your stuff isn't "good enough" or feeling too old to make toys:) I just use my littleones as an excuse right now, even though I would make stuff even if they were older.....I just found your blog, its great!

Just pop something on there and wing it. I found myself with some craft fair leftovers and put them on without too much thought or planning and I sold every last thing before Christmas. I was gobsmacked. Mo major promotion, no flash storefront. But the thrill of the sale meant I got the things packaged up beautifully and sent off in no time. And then you can learn on the job and refine these things as you go. Because quite frankly, if I bought one of your lovely softies, I'd e happy if it arrived in a bin liner! Now go and set up that shop. My advice on etsy? Just pop something on there and wing it.

Eek!! There is also Mintd (seems to be picking up speed) to consider. Your softies are super! They are original and you will do great. Cheers! I am shyly considering both a blog and an etsy. Eek!!
