🌿 Please help me grow by spreading the word about my shop. If you’re on Bluesky, I’m posting regularly there. As soon as I have more categories listed in the shop, I’m going to make some posts on Instagram. You can also share my shop directly with people you think will love my work.

You can also support me over on Ko-fi, where I share more behind the scenes stuff, like some of the initial style sheets that led to these new products, for example. I’m currently at 5% of my fundraising goal for this month; all donations, commissions, and shop sales go toward that goal. Remember that monthly supporters automatically contribute to a mutual aid fund that goes to supporting other disabled community members!
