Etsy for Animals: Artists Helping Animals


Mom and I joined Etsy for Animals just recently. This is a group of artists and craftspeople who have shops on Etsy, and who love and want to help animals. Many of them donate a percentage of their Etsy shop sales to animal charities each month.

We will be donating 10% of our Etsy shop print sales (less shipping) to animal charities each month. My mom, along with Max Bailey, can be found at Art from the Studio of A E Ruffing on Etsy, and I can be found at The Art of Elizabeth Ruffing on Etsy.

Incidentally, I’ve also added the EFA links on the right sidebar of our blogs, along with a new categories section on the Ruffing’s blog. Now it is a bit easier to find things…I hope.

Plodding along/hopping along?

My repair job is done, my next doll face it painted, and I have a few “Rabbit Dances” cards to finish up. I still have more bunny and snow scene cards in my shop. Thanks for all the compliments on them 🙂

I am also refining a new doll pattern done in machine appliqué style like “Lovely Lucy“. There are three variations so far and I think they are going to be really cute. I can’t wait to get the first ones together. I hope they come off without needing too many, no, any adjustments to their patterns. I’ll give you one hint: they are of the animal variety. The possibilities are multiplying in my mind right now…
