new card illustrations

Here is a new card design.  I promise I will get a few card designs printed and up in the shop very soon.  Sorry it's taken me so long.

Here is a Valentine's Day card series I completed awhile ago.  These will be up in the shop soon too!

some new projects in the works

This is my second attempt at making a miniature stuffed llama and boy was it a failure.  It ended up having a bunch of holes at the seams and after I had mended them all and was stuffing the llama before the last step I accidently tore a big hole right through the back leg.  There was no mending it.  So I gave up for now.  Let's not even talk about my first attempt.

On a better note these are some painted and unpainted leaves that I will soon make into brooches to sell.  These were painted by Malachi Ward.

a new elephant

A new elephant I made yesterday.  It has a heart cross-stitched on it and button eyes.  And one of my favorite fabrics.  I will make a drawstring bag for it with a tag and put it up in the shop.  Stay tuned for a miniature stuffed llama.

mugs!

These mugs were hand painted by Malachi Ward for a few friends of ours.  He will also be making things for Small Adventure!  In the future I think we will have some hand painted mugs in the shop.  

a christmas present

Here are some Star Trek pillows I made for some friends of mine.  I haven't given them to our friends yet so don't tell.  The coolest part is the vintage looking Star Trek fabric I found online.  These pictures are not great but I was pretty pleased with how the pillows turned out.

interview with indie icing

I'm pleased to say that Small Adventure has had its first interview!  You can read it on a cool blog called Indie Icing that does a good job of finding and promoting less prominent Etsy shops.  Thank you to Jessica of Indie Icing for being interested in our very humble goods.

some packaging

I made some packaging for a larger than normal order.  Just a little drawstring bag and some labels, but I think they came out pretty well.  Someday I'd like to have a consistent identity for Small Adventure complete with business cards, stationery, tags and labels, drawstring bags, boxes and shipping supplies, as well as a matching look for the craft fair booth.  But this is a small first step.
