It's been a while since I've made a printable download! So please enjoy this printable note ๐
It reminds me that I should really make some notepads for spring... maybe I should order some notepads in case you don't have a printer? Let me know if you'd want this design or something else ๐

I completely forgot to mention - I finally made a new studio vlog! The whole thing is in the ceramics studio too.
I'm not sure how often I will make studio vlogs anymore since I'd like to spend more time creating pottery, but I'm thinking maybe once a month could be nice? I guess we'll see ๐

Hallo beautiful patrons! You all get early access to view the ceramics that will be coming up.
I've decided to focus this shop update on the new beige planters and a few mugs. Other pieces you saw earlier will be in another shop update in a few weeks to give me a bit more time to prep :)
I have also now finally listed the new bird pins AND ... lil kitty plant pins! ๐

I'm working on prepping for the shop update this Saturday, March 26 16:00 GMT+1!
I'm really proud of myself for the number of pieces I have been able to make this month. It's really exciting to see them all together ๐
I still need to quality check them all to make sure that they are perfect. I noticed that some of the bird planters did not turn out very nice, so I will hold onto those for now and figure out what to do with them later.
I will be taking ...

I'm prepping some new bird pins to go into the shop this weekend! They are the birds from birbfest 2022 ๐ There are 10 new bird pins, but I only ordered 10 of each.
If any of them are really popular, I might order more. BUT I am planning to do fewer bird pins in the future to focus on other kinds of products.
Once upon a time, I considered doing an exclusive bird pin tier on Patreon. Is this something you'd be interested in?

Remember a while ago when I was looking at a collab to try new merch? Well it's about time we actually order stuff!
I have been putting it off because I didn't know what designs to use, so I could use your help to decide :) One of the top voted items was Lanyards, so here are a few that designs I'm considering based off some art I've already made.

Hey everyone! I've just ordered the sticker sheets for this month ๐ They are so cute, I am so excited! I like including a little extra when I can, so would you prefer a little sticker or postcard this month?
Also a quick update on the tier price change problems - some of you mentioned having some issues with changing your pledge. I am waiting for a response from Patreon t...

March's theme is going to be Guinea Bees! I realized I have never drawn guinea pigs for Patreon rewards ๐ฎ๐ฎ So I'm really excited that these will be the first ones. I think they're gonna be so cute! I will be making it into a sticker sheet and also either making a print or a matching die cut sticker.

Also I just updated the happy mail tier from $10 to $12 as I mentioned I would do last month. Those of you in that tier should be able to update ...

Just wanted to let you know that your happy mail is now on the way! I hope you will like the stickers. As mentioned before, I ordered the sticker sheets this time so the quality is different but I think it is nicer. When you get yours let me know what you think :)

Also a small reminder that tomorrow the Happy mail tier will be increasing from $10 to $12. Patreon will notify you of the change and you should be able to edit your pledge then.

I am working on a new collection this week and have managed to make a pattern I absolutely adore featuring guinea pigs! The first idea was to make notebooks, but I thought tote bags could be cute too. I'm in the process now of getting some samples made. Fingers crossed they turn out cute ๐
Which one do you like the best? Also let me know if you prefer dot ...

Hey everyone! Next month, there will be a few tier changes that I want to tell you about now so you are ready. I'll get right to it ๐

Wheee!! Got my test back! I'm really happy with how it came out despite the clay coming out more red than I expected - I thought it would be more yellow/beige.
I wish I'd cleaned up the bands around the face more. Usually it isn't an issue because the glaze typically hides all that, but with raw clay (no glaze) it's really apparent.
I need to test if this clay is fully waterproof or not without the glaze, but it isn't such a big deal if it isn't since these a...
I've been playing around with a new type of clay that I think would be really lovely as planters! Right now this clay looks light red, but when it's fired completely it will be light beige.
It's my first time using this type of clay and I'm excited to see how it turns out. I wanted to keep the clay raw, meaning without the shiny glaze over the whole thing. I'm not sure how it will turn out, but later today I will get my test samples back and will show you what they l...

So in the summer of 2020, I bought 2 HUGE bags of packing peanuts. I didn't realize how big the bags were when I ordered them online and when they arrived, the bags were the same size as me. And there were two!! (I even vlogged it and watching it again now it's pretty hilarious - check it out if you want a laugh https://youtu.be/D-IZ-LzSq_I?t=588 ๐)

The preview for all of the ceramics are now available on my website! I took lots of photos so you can see them from different angles and preview how much they cost ๐
I have also added the first new pin of the year! You may remember this doodle from back in the autumn and I decided to make enamel pins out of it. It isn't your typical hard enamel pin, but has a resin dome over the top to protect the design. I only have 25 of...

Hello my lovely Patrons! I spent all of January drawing so many birds, and I wanted to do something special with them just for you. So I've done something a little different and made them into little postage stamps ๐
For the first time ever, I will be ordering the stickers as opposed to making them at home. I want to test this out since making the stickers has been rather time consuming for me, and I think this would help me out a lot :) I will be ordering them th...

I've been spending all my time recently prepping for the shop update that will be Saturday Feb 5, 18:00 (GMT+1)!
This update is a particularly special one because it will be my biggest ceramics update yet! I will have roughly 45 pottery pets looking for homes next weekend. There will be 15 tiger mugs, which will come in S, M and L (differences of about 100ml or 3oz between sizes). And some of the planters will be discounted due to so...

Hii everyone! I've finally finished the Tiger stickers for this month's Patreon rewards.
I hope you like them! They will be posted at the end of the month so I can do them all at once ๐
As always, thank you for being so patient with me. I am working on managing my time better and am planning to get these done earlier for you :)
I have an opportunity to try out some new merch as a collaboration with Vograce! They are a supplier who makes a bunch of different stuff, and I'm really excited to try out making something new.
I will for sure be making some large custom shaped throw pillows, but here are some of the other options I was looking at. This order will be a good way to sample some new stuff, but...

I'm "streaming" on YouTube! Well kinda, it's a test ๐คฃ But come join if you wanna hang out for a little bit. The stream won't be long since I'm not sure how long the camera battery will last.
But hey! Gonna draw a birb ๐
Yay! I spent all weekend counting inventory and updating the shop. The studio has been an absolute MESS since the end of the markets, and it feels sooo good to finally be able to see the floor of the studio again ๐
So the shop is officially OPEN again! You may notice that the there are some price differences since it was last open. This is because I recently changed the default currency to SEK (from USD), and the currency conversion is causing some rounding.
It's 2022 and we're jumping in with TIGERS! This means that this month's happy mail will have some cute tigers doing tiger things (whatever that might be ๐).
I'm looking forward to 2022 since I think this will be a big growing year for me in terms of my art and business. I have lots of things I want to do in terms of creative goals, and a lot of them have to do with creating more content.
The big, creative things I want to d...

The December happy mail is finally done and will be on the way! I want to thank you so much for your patience with me this month ๐ Between getting sick and all the markets, they got a lot more delayed than I originally planned.
Even more exciting, all Patrons in the US and Canada who have joined before today (Dec 30) should get their happy mail extra quick! My sister, who lives in the US, was kind enough to take back all the US and Canada mail to post it from the...
The prompt list is done! After lots of bird research, these 31 birds made the cut for the Birbfest 2022 art challenge. (Thank you for all of your suggestions!)
I did my best to include a variety of bird types, colors and also complexity. I also created a reference PDF for those of you who would like to see what all the birds look like.
Some of the bird types are more general and have many varieties, so you can choose which specific type you want to draw (for ex...

Last year, I did Birbfest for the first time in January 2021 - a challenge to draw 31 birds in 31 days. Originally, I did not plan to do it again but... I think I will be a little sad if I don't at least try ๐
SO here we are, 5 days before January and we need a list for Birbfest 2022! Do you have any suggestions of what birds should be on the list?

I've finished my markets for the season! In total I did 4 separate markets spanning over a total of 9 days.
This particular market definitely took me the most time and energy, since it was not only the longest market in days but also the largest space I got to use. Instead of just a single table, it was an entire booth. My partner and sister were absolutely amazing in helping me set up the booth to get everything ready. I truly couldn't have done it without the...

Hallo everyone! I hope you are all doing well :) I apologize for not being very active. I have been sick for the last week and only got well JUST before the Christmas market. It starts tomorrow and runs for four days. It's been truly a last minute prep. I spent the day organizing the booth and I can't wait to show you photos tomorrow for the big reveal.
I wanted to make you a little crafty project and thought that a holiday garland would be super cute! I've actually ...
