The grand unveiling of our new business Steelin' Dreams is on the way. to keep up to date with our new dream please give us a follow!

Our Folksy shop is now closed. All remaining stock, materials and supplies are available on our eBay shop.

It's official. We're no longer on Etsy. It's not what it used to be, it was no longer a good fit for us. Let's not even mention the exorbitant fees, AI art, mass-produced imports........

Never fear, though, you can still find us on Folksy , and we're busy working on our new website, getting ready for our big rebrand/relaunch!

Thank you for reading until the end. 🌻
