Happy Birthday, Skunkboy Creatures!

It was two years ago, today, that my sweetest friend Amy set up my Etsy shop and helped start the magic.  I CANNOT believe two years has passed!  It's crazy.  When I started I really had no idea what I was doing, I only knew that it was a fun and creative way to pass some time.  Wanna see the very first thing I ever made?

Evolution, baby!

He still makes me smile.  He's the one thing I wish I had never sold.  Oh, well.  I'm not too broken up about it.  :)  As a celebration, I'm breaking from work, and I'm gonna leave my house!  Ha!  That's right, I've been working night and day on these Christmas orders, and I'm going to treat myself to some dinner and family time.  Allllllllriiiiiiiight!

Happy Birthday to my little shop and a BIG thank you to everyone who has supported me over the years.  I love you!


I will draw the giveaway winner tomorrow!!!  xo Katie

    Thank you for the birthday wishes! My little animals have evolved quite a bit over time, and I'm very thankful for all of the practice I've gotten!

    Alix: The dress is a vintage slip, partnered with a lacy tank, another slip, and a brown bow belt. Thanks. :)
