New Items and New Promotions

This week, I'm pleased to introduce another Poison Dart Frog:

Neon Green Poison Frog
Mr. Neon Green Poison Dart Frog.

(a bit bleached out in this photo)








Due to a shortage in my supplies of neon green felt, there's only one of these guys available at the moment, so snatch him up if you like him! ;) He's available via The Toy Cove's Etsy shop.

I've also added some new varieties to the Baby Owl collection.


Also available through Etsy.



Each little owl has a bean bag inside.

Lastly, I've been working on a few promotional items.

Hooray for spray paint and poster board!

A finished bag, owlet-sized.

A thank-you coupon for buyers.

Don't forget; there's still time to enter The Toy Cove's giveaway. You could win your very own Plush Piggy Bank. :)

Of care tags and unsewn owls.

Several months ago, I came across an Etsy listing for care tags by JennifersJewels. I bought a sample quantity (60 tags), and as soon as I got them in the mail, I knew I'd be ordering more. The quality of these tags is really impressive, especially given the reasonable price.
And I swear no one paid me to write this. I just really love these tags. If you're a soft toy maker (or a clothing designer), you should check them out.

Tonight, after sewing lots of frog eyes, I pinned tags on the owl pattern pieces.
There's nothing left to do now but to feed them through the sewing machine and watch as more and more soft owls begin to roost in the studio.


I can't wait to show you the finished product.

For now, Prototype Owl looks at her future friends longingly...
