Time to start this!
I'm based in the UK, and I've had my shop open in Etsy since 2014. I didn't really expand my shop since I was happy just having a small income alongside my full time job, that mostly went back into my shop buying furs and other stuff. I used to sell abroad, but since Brexit, It's not really worth the hassle any more.
Last year I was given a better sewing machine by my nan, and it worked way better with faux furs than my old one, which struggled. That meant I got a lot quicker with sewing and could deal with much thicker furs than previously!
As I was considering what to do with the future of my shop, Brexit happened, which caused me to stop international sales but it also became a bigger problem with the quality of my faux furs - which I'll likely make another post to rant about that haha!
So, I bit the bullet and decided to look into different and better quality furs. I might as well explore finally with making ears and handpaws at the very least!
However, I have found a new supplier that does the whispy fur but in better quality than I've been getting, so those are still being sold and made.
So this blog is gonna showcase my new things I make for my Etsy shop. It'll have WIPs and previews, and generally talking about my stock and talking about the different fake furs I like or use or want.
Basically just things I can't talk about anywhere else. Thrown into the void! And fun stuff, and likely liking other fursuit makers and cool furry stuff out there.
