from 2 items to 41: my online shop is stocked!

I did it! The shelves of my Etsy shop are fully stocked. Check out Carrot Condo on Etsy!!! Phew!

My shop went from two available items to forty-one!! To organize things, I created categories. So you can either scroll through and explore the whole shop, or you can choose a category like “stickers,” or “original art,” or “cards.”

At the moment, I’m most excited about the cards. I really like the artwork, and the back of each card tells a story related to my drawing.

But also, I figured out how to offer different prices for different quantities. So now, for each card, you’ll get a drop-down menu offering you three different quantity/price options. The cards are available for pre-order and will be shipped by the end of October.

These options help me better estimate how many of each card to print, which makes a huge difference to both my budget and my limited storage space. It also makes it more affordable to order a few sets of one card if you have a favorite.

Also, two of my kitchen towels are back. For now, they are made-to-order and take about three weeks from the order date to be shipped to you. Eventually, I will try to have a handful always in stock. But first, I am working on one more towel design, and I am considering reviving the strawberry design that sold out at in-person events and never made it into the shop.

All of this takes time. So, I’m pacing myself and constantly adjusting priorities. Which leads me to the last big change for Carrot Condo–I am not doing any in-person events this winter-holiday season. Carrot Condo is available online only.

I’m working on in-person ideas for the future, but until then, you can find my shop on Etsy. If Etsy’s system causes you any trouble–you can always email me with questions or just tell me your order and we’ll work out the details.

You can also stay in touch via social media. I post once a week on Instagram and Facebook.

And as always, thank you for your interest in my work and support of my creative journey. Knowing you’re out there motivates me. Like the month it took me to take pics and create Etsy listings…oof…not a quick process for me. Your enthusiasm kept me going. Thank you!!
