Hi friends.

As you all are already probably more than aware, I’ve been working hard to open my online shop, found on Etsy, as a way to supplement my income and do something I love. At the moment, the shop is full of bibs, stuffed animals, and other goodies, all handmade by yours truly. I do as much repurposing as I can, since finding items second hand is the best way to find unique prints, patterns, and fabrics.

I love what I do! While keeping my regular full time job, I sew away the nights and weekends, stoking my imagination and constantly asking my inner child her opinion. I’m always looking for fun, new ways to get moms and kids interactive. In the upcoming months I’ll be introducing some brand new stuffies and screen-printed items like fabric napkins.

I hope you’ll come and have a look around, and if you’re so inspired, please shoot me a “Like” on Zootopia’s facebook page! I’ll be sending out coupon codes and special offers, but won’t overwhelm your home page with shameless self-promotion. Er, like this.

And it’s all for a good cause: attempting to supplement my own income is practice for my future freelancing naturalist business. My intention is to provide to teachers and other educators innovative, exciting programming and teaching materials at a low, affordable cost, so they can expand their own curricula without breaking the budget. That’s really what this blog is all about; one day it will be a really spectacular website with things to download and video clips and whatall else!

Thanks for taking a minute of your day to check out this post, I really appreciate it. :) Have a great afternoon, wherever you are!
