Ever since my dad took a business trip there a few years back (probably more like 10+ years back–scary that I can remember that far) it’s been a place I’ve been wanting to visit.  Unfortunately, with between making toys, a day job, and other things, I myself can’t go yet–instead, I sent my toys!

I was so excited to receive an email from Renegade Handmade (I am such a huge fan of the Renegade Craft Fair and just looking at their website puts me in the Disneyland of handmade goodies) saying that they wanted to carry my plushies in their store!

After finally getting all my inventory replenished, I sent out  box of all the fruits and I just received word that they’ve landed safely in Chicago.  Just to see how “official” I am now, I headed over to their website and found my logo under their “Artists” section.

And here I am!  Right now, I’m only available in their retail location, not on their website.  So that’s why you won’t see any shop items when you click there.

So if you’re in the Chicago area, be sure to stop by and tell me how it is!!

The truth is that I make toys all the time, but something funny happens between the last stitch and the time when I hit the “finish” button while listing it.  I can’t find time to take picture, pictures come out bad, Photoshop takes forever to open, and the list goes on and on.  So, you can see why I don’t list very often and when I do, I do it in bursts.  This time, we’ve got 3 new toys listed!  come and check them out!
