Carry your stuff in the Oregonian lack of style! But really, get all your druid things in one basket, then put that basket in one of these bags.

Let your feathery self go out in style with a fleece-lined, cotton wing top. Hand dyed, drawn, and sewn by the goblin, these tops are safe to wash once leather laces are removed. Two vests are shown here, both completed and ready to go to a new home! If youd like one in different colors, please

Hello, my hibernating friends~
As I work with new dyes that are better for long-term wear, I hope to clear out some more costume quality pieces I have hanging around. Without the faire season, these did not see a soul outside of the shop, so they are still all new on their hangers.

If you head to my shop starting today, you'll see a hefty and early Spring Cleaning sale in an attempt to find some homes for costumes. Why are they so cheap? Well cuz you can't wash-wash them. The dye used is water-reactive so, while a bit of rain or spot cleaning is fine (especially on the other fabrics), if you soak it and leave it wet, you'll get a water-color painting on the surrounding fabric. Spilling something on them is fine, cleaning that off with water and a paper towel is fine, adding detergent not so much, you feel?

These dyes yielded fantastic color and I miss them, but I'm happy to say that the new dyes I work with ARE wash safe. These are what I use on my new leaves, patches, and anything else I put out in the future.

So anywho, if you've favorited something and been waiting for it to go on sale, now is your chance :D

(tl;dr: sale on goblin clothes, follow link)

'nother little sale in the etsy shop! 40%, including the new, washable patches o.o

Even more, from now until the end of the month, if you order a custom patch, full price, from me, you'll get another, matching one gratis~

Why? Because the fabric is easier to cut folded on itself and also I love you.

(pics are all examples of custom commissions)

Finally listed these lovelies up! Wrap yourself in a giant leaf because why not! They're even washable ;)

A prototype order form I'm trying out. I made some examples with already made stuff, so hopefully that helps decipher what it all means~

You're welcome to fill one out and send it to me here or on Etsy, and I'll give you a quote for what you're looking for.
You're also welcome to send me a vest you already own and I will goblin it, just write that in the comment area.

Patches! The will go up on etsy tomorrow, but I wanted to give them a chance here first! (They won't be part of the 50% sale that's going on)

https://www.etsy.com/listing/800684972/hand-dyed-fabric-animal-sew-on-patch?ref=shop_home_active_2

100% cotton, you can sew them, glue them, or slap an iron-on backing on them. You can even get these ones wet, just stick to cold water.

23/05/2020

With the season on break, I've decided to do a little almost-summer cleaning of my shop!

Because I've now switched to a new type of dye, everything made with the old type (theatre-quality, so spot clean kind of situation) is going 1/2 off.

50%!

That includes the vests!

Will the Goblin take a hit on this? He doesn't know, he's distracted. I won't tell if you don't.

So, if you want something to wear to make normies stay at LEAST 6 ft back, come on by and take a peek:

It's been a bunny kinda time! I'm excited as these are made with a new (to me) dye, making them a LOT more water-safe than my old pieces. Even *gasp* washable.

(All of these are spoken for, but there will be more critters to come!)

24/04/2020

*drumroll* Et Viola!
Any questions or "I want"s feel free to comment below or send a message. When I say "men's" or "women's", it's just for sizing; wear whatever you want :D

Having trouble finding your size in what I make? Message me for options~

I'll leave the sale options up until 5 pm Pacific time, then they'll be up on Etsy for regular purchase.

Thanks friends! Back to sewing I go.

24/04/2020

Some new* vests dropping on here tomorrow. Stay tuned for bears, maps, jaw bones, and foxes!

They'll be on sale for the first hour they're up as a thanks for those who follow me here! They'll be on etsy after that.

*not really new I just didn't get around to posting them until now, you know how it is

08/04/2020

New lil guy I made today as a commission for the also skilled Amelia~

The sun was shining, the sketching went quickly, and things just worked out to make a raccoon. Lovely day!

07/04/2020

Went a slightly different direction with the layout; took longer than anticipated, but it usually does :D

This is about the size of a throw pillow, and I will be making more! I'm open for requests on every aspect of this style altar cloth if you'd like one. I will make any animal, plant, or planet that you'd like (or at least do my best!). Colors are completely customizable. These will run from $40-$85, (determined by detail level and whether you'd like it assembled with fabric glue or sewn together.

23/03/2020

Still iffy on the background color, but here is a (still unassembled) altar cloth design I've been working with.

Looking forward to more sunny days for dye work!

03/03/2020

I'm working out a way to make dyed things that are machine washable, hopefully in a couple of weeks of hurry up and wait I'll have something to show for myself!

03/01/2020

New vest up! I ~love~ how this one turned out, if I may toot a horn by saying so.
