Drumroll, please…
The new Happy Sleepy shop on Etsy is open!

Currently the shop features art toys in the signature Happy Sleepy shape of the reversible abstract animal that looks like he is either beaming happy or fast asleep, depending which way you hold him up. There is no top or down with the Happy Sleepies.
My personal favourite of the bunch is Happy Sleepy Star Dipped. When I first sewed him up and stuffed this design, I felt he was a bit boring with the dark blue wool fabric looking kinda dull. The addition of mirror lined seed beads really perked it up, and also gave this creature its name: he looks like he’s been dipped in a starry sky.
I have big plans for the Etsy shop. Up first will be adding all the other animals I made earlier in the fall, which turned out to be quite a few.
