I got really lucky last week !!!!!!

My "Wild Animals " puppet set was on the KIDS landing page of  ETSY     for nearly a week and was  selected for " ETSY FINDS " of the day

Wow I must admit it was great ,I had lots of views and my ETSY shop and products were favorited a lot 

It makes such a big difference when people actually can see my product

so my little set of Hand puppets - Crocodile , Leopard and Parrot  was popular 

And some sales were generated 

Little Red Riding Hood - Puppet Story bag ,Great for storytelling , Teaching resource

It took a while to make this set "Little Red Riding Hood -Story bag Set of 5 pieces" ordered from our local primary school as Teaching resource

Well, the WOLF was a bit too hard,for me to make but once done the rest of the characters were very easy the combination of hand and finger puppets make the set very functional

Great for storytelling ,Perfect Teacher's resource

I have been designed the Colour me in Puppet sets to be attractive for girls and boys of school age as most of my creations are for babies and toddlers I wanted to make a product that could be interesting for a bit older children and to be a multifunctional one

COLOUR INPLAY and CREATE StoriesWASH IT OUTand ...................Start all over again 

I wonder about the retail presentation i wanted something transparent but in same time to compliment the lovely natural look of the Soft White 100 % Cotton Jersey that is my main material,

so friend suggested to try boxes and i loved it but it took a bit of time though ........

to make the box after receiving everything flat pack these days

                        Finally a got my new product Colour me in Puppet Sets completed

and I am very happy with the result
