My Etsy Shop Is Growing — Here’s What’s New

It’s been a busy, inspired season in the studio, and that energy is showing up in the shop.

I’ve been expanding my Etsy store with a curated mix of books, prints, and original art objects that speak to the strange, smart, and beautifully specific. Everything I list is something I’d want in my own collection; pieces with a sense of story, nostalgia, and just a little mischief.

Some recent additions I’m especially excited about:

📖 Eight or Nine Wise Words About Letter-Writing — A tiny but mighty gem by Lewis Carroll, originally paired with his Wonderland postage stamp case. It’s a Victorian-era guide to correspondence that feels oddly relevant in the age of texting. This edition is illustrated, gift-worthy, and rare. View it here

🦇 Dracula illustrated by Becky Cloonan — A stunning, modern take on the horror classic. Cloonan’s artwork adds a rich, eerie layer that makes this edition truly stand out. It’s a collectible piece for readers, artists, and vampire lovers alike. Check it out

🎭 Masked Figures Mini Print Set — A new original art set I created, capturing the pandemic anonymity of hidden identities. This set is often purchased for presentations or hospital signs. See the set

🎶 The Beatles Illustrated Lyrics — This rare edition compiles lyrics by The Beatles with illustrations by a dream lineup of 20th-century artists. It’s a visual time capsule that hits on both music history and design. Browse the book

Each listing is part of a bigger intention — to offer thoughtful, well-designed pieces that connect to something deeper. Sometimes that’s nostalgia. Sometimes it’s weirdness. Sometimes it’s just the thrill of finding something rare and beautiful.

Thanks for following along as this shop grows into something fuller and more reflective of everything I love to make and collect.
