A shop!

Oh gosh, I've started an Etsy shop. I feel quite nervous. You can look at it if you want.
There's some choice Toot, of course, and I'll start trying to do Toot posts earlier in the week so if you folk like anything I can pop it in there for you (because you bloggists are my favourites, don't tell the others).
And there's also some things I've made! Well . . . so far only two things I've made - more coming soon though.

Cuddly fish!

Sexy alphabet . . . phwoooaarrr.
Here are some photos of the process . . .

Dale and the prototype fish. Dale's been my main encourager.

Covering the place in fishy prints.

Trying to get the photos right for Etsy - harder than you'd imagine. (Beautiful pink knees.)

It's taken a while to get in gear - and to feel bold enough to make things in multiples with the hope of selling them. There are so many makers and designers and you probably don't realise it but they're all nuts brave! So, with Christmas coming up and all, you should go buy stuff from them.
That's it, I guess I'm part of the real world now. Not just ambling down to Spitalfields, all snotty in the face: not just loitering in a public place, cruising stalls for banal conversations about weather and then eating a Twix. No. An internet shop - that the world can see.
Gosh.
