A Shop Created by Request
I've been creating fun and interesting things my entire life, but in the last couple of years I saw more and more interest in them as I fine-tuned my abilities. I taught myself how to crochet first, then added in cross stitch, then embroidery. I began posting my pieces in fan groups I'm a part of, as well as on my social media accounts, and the requests to purchase became overwhelming. I also started receiving requests for custom pieces. I knew opening an Etsy shop was the best way for me to put my items in the hands of the people who loved them while also maintaining total creative control.
All of my pieces are designed by me, I do not and will not copy and sell the designs of other artists. All items are hand made, and take between several and hundreds of hours to complete, depending on the intricacy. I'm inspired by the things I love: Harry Potter, The Office, Parks and Recreation, Arrested Development, and swearing; as well as all things snarky. I also love my state, and the Seattle area, so you'll see those crop up as well.
When you buy one of my pieces you are paying not only for talent and expertise I've honed over many years, but also for large amounts of my time and effort. It is a labor of joy and love, not of profit.
