🧙‍♀️ THE CREATORS’ CAULDRON GIVEAWAY 🧙‍♀️

ONE lucky winner gets over $550 CAD in witchy treasures from 8 incredible small businesses! 🖤

This started as a celebration of hitting an INSANE follower milestone, but I didn’t want it to just be about me. These creators have shared my work, hyped me up, collaborated with me, supported my weird little potion-making dreams and become genuine friends. So I asked them to throw something into the Cauldron, and GOOD GODDESS did they deliver. 😂

12 days later & I have updated my collar inventory! Literally though my hands are so sore from 12 full days of making stock & clamping those snaps.

I now have 50 different colours & styles of collars. Something in every shade I could get my paws onto. My plan is to make collar inventory once a year. So colours & styles are as quantities last, until next fall when I do a full restock again.

I have listened to your feedback & a selection of collars are larger & some are the same size as previously, the selection of sizing is at random. So please, if you’re unsure of the fit, ask to try them on & I’ll gladly help you out.

(Not pictured in video: dark & chocolate brown, snaps arrived late)

I’m working nonstop to prepare for @edmontonexpoofficial! I’m so excited to see everyone & catch up! I’ll be at booth PR33 in Artist Alley
💜
I know I’ve been slacking haaaaard on keeping up with posts on socials, but this ears making business is a lot of work. It takes up so much of my time, which gives me less time to be online!
