Good evening champions. I have a sneaky little update for you 🫢
We have been on Etsy for well over a decade, and I’m not planning on binning it off - they have been good to us & this has worked well for our situation - but their reputation is taking a hit as they continue to allow mass produced sh*te to be sold under their ‘handmade & vintage’ only space. It’s disappointing, but here we are. 🤠
Sadly, this behaviour is causing Etsy to be boycotted by a lot of crafty folks, which includes a lot of our customers. As such, we have launched another shop on Ko-fi. Currently, this is just for our digital patterns. This platform also allows giveaways, so I’m excited for that. 🫠
You can find us here 👉🏻 https://ko-fi.com/thingsbyanabelle - please drop us a follow if you are a Ko-fi user. 🥰
I am working on transferring our patterns across, but in the meantime, there are 2 brand new patterns on there exclusive to Ko-fi (for now). 🤩
Over & out 🫡
