February 2020 Personal Creative Challenge, Day 22: New Purse and Bag Designs

Three new bag designs, Blending, Evening Wildflowers and Market Flowers

I’ve purchased premade tote bags of various sorts and imprinted on them for years, but I can’t always find consistent bags, or sizes I like, and I often can’t work out a design that I want. Last autumn I decided I was going to start making my own bags so that I could both be […]

Time for Holiday Shopping for Nature & Wildlife Inspirations

I’d love for my art and gifts to be a part of your holiday giving! This post will be the first feature of gift items, and I guarantee there will be a second in a week or so as I restock sold items and produce entirely new items such as tiles, placemats, decorative wall and […]

Yes? Tote, Summer Accessory or Reusable Shopping Bag

I’ve always wanted to see my lady leopard, “Yes?”, on a jute burlap bag. This line of shaped jute bags are more like purses than totes and very versatile. This vinyl-lined medium tote has sturdy handles and is a great summer accessory with a sundress or on a trip to the beach, and it’s also […]

A New Display, and New Things

A set of gift items with a "Summer Living" theme.

With all the new gift items I’ve been making I needed to modify my vendor display. I tried out a new layout this past weekend at the Hearts & Paws Pet Fair that included two sets of shelves and it just about perfectly fit all the small things I had to display. I had decided […]

Buy 2 for $25.00 on Many Gift Items

The blue and green display including keepsake boxes, tiles, decorative dishes and votives.

Each item on my website has $5.00 added into the posted price to cover average shipping. But shipping two of most items often costs no more than shipping one. I always give a discount at in-person sales at shows and in my shop, and I try to offer discounts to customers who don’t live close […]

Marketplace: Ailurobibliophile Tote Bags on Sale ~ The Creative Cat

I’m down to five of my original Ailurobibliophile tote bags, one in each color. The images on these five are, well, less than perfect, not quite centered, not evenly printed, possibly a little off kilter, most of it apparent when you compare two side by side. So it’s your chance to get the design, slightly […]

Marketplace: Bella and Her Foster Friends Tote Bags! ~ The Creative Cat

I know that not all kitties are black so Bella’s friends are white with bright blue eyes, gray with blue-green eyes like Bella’s, and ginger with bright green eyes. Each bag is hand-printed and hand-embellished, and all work is supurrvised by my feline quality control team! Read more on The Creative Cat: Marketplace: Bella and […]

Yes? Tote, Accessory or Reusable Shopping Bag

I’ve always wanted to see my lady leopard, “Yes?”, on a jute burlap bag. This line of shaped jute bags are more like purses than totes and very versatile. This vinyl-lined medium tote has sturdy handles and is a great accessory as a purse, and it’s also strong enough to be a year-round permanent reusable […]

Ailurobibliophile Tote Bag in Four Colors

I’m working out a design I’ve had in mind for a while—since just about a year ago to be exact! This was to be September 2017’s new introduction, starting with a tote bag then possibly moving to other things, and the concept would lead to a line of items with this design and others, using […]
