Howdy guys!

    After selling out of all my stock at the beginning of November, I decided to open my Etsy store to custom frame and mirror orders! Check out my page, I'm currently accepting orders for 4x6 and 5x7 frames in a variety of shapes (rectangular, square, circular, even oval!) and 8x10 mirrors fitted into sturdy picture frames. The prices are as follows:

-4x6 frame: $25
-5x7 frame: $35
-8x10 mirror: $45

    Shipping is only in the US and costs only an additional $10. I also have a wide variety of fur colors to choose from:

-Red
-Blue
-Yellow
-Green
-Olive Green
-Purple
-Black
-Neon Pink
-Neon Orange
-Neon Green
-Sparkly Turquoise
-Turquoise with Neon Yellow Highlights
-Magenta with Neon Pink Highlights
-Black with White Streaks
-Tan with White streaks

    Since these are custom orders, it will take at least 2-3 days for building. Features can be personalized. For each frame size and mirror I have examples of previous pieces I've made to give you an idea of what's been done in the past. I can recreate some pieces, but please note they will by no means be exact replicas since each item is hand made and unique.

Go here and take a look :D

Since the Etsy store has been open I've had a lot of people stopping by, but no sales at all. I was getting a little discouraged, but I'm still appreciative of all the kind words, compliments, and people adding my work as favorites to their DA pages. So I took my entire online inventory, six frames, to a mini puppet festival in Indiana this past weekend. I also made five frames specifically for the event, making eleven in all. Taking a page from the wonderfully talented Love and Sandwich's book (seriously, guys, find her on DA, FB, Instagram, her stuff is great!), I took the huge box I had of fur scraps and stuffed eight one gallon 'designer' Ziplock bags full of them and brought them to sell as well. I thought, MAYBE, I'd sell one or two of everything, if I was lucky . . .

. . . I SOLD OUT OF EVERYTHING!!! :D All eleven frames, eight bags of fur scraps, even two "Make Your Own Monster Frame Kits" that I slapped together at the last minute, GONE! I had to pull everything out of my Etsy store so I didn't double sell anything on accident over the weekend! I even got an offer to bulk sell some frames to a friend of mine who, along with her husband who's an RP game designer, sells children's and family items at anime and comic cons. I'm really excited about all this and I wanted to thank all of you guys here, first. So many of you have been so wonderful and sweet with liking my stuff for so long. Every time I put something up, within seconds one of you lovely people has added it as a favorite or written something sweet about it. Thank you guys so much for being who you are and appreciating what I do. It means so much to me :D

Please stay tuned to my page for further developments. I have a special Facebook page in the works that will be opening up soon, along with some more monster related items and frames that will be going up for sale in the weeks to come. Thanks again!

Finally, after almost a MONTH, my Etsy store is finally open! Check it out, take a look, and if you see something you like by all means pick something up :D Make sure to take a look for the SURPRISE sixth frame I mentioned in my last journal entry that you'll only be able to see by going to my Etsy store. I promise, you won't be disappointed ;)


Thanks again and stayed tuned!

Hello everyone!

    First, let me take a moment and thank everyone who's taken the time to either favorite some of my work, to leave a lovely comment, or to just check out my gallery and take a look at things. You guys are the best and it makes me so happy that so many people seem to be into what it is I do.

Secondly, my Etsy store will be officially open as of tomorrow! The store is called:

                                                MonstersByMarc

    Right now, the first five frames that are in my gallery will be up for sale, along with a surprise sixth frame that I just completed and you'll only get to see if you stop by the store! There will be more frames coming in the future to the store, and I will be posting new frames up here on Deviantart and on my new Facebook page, also called Monsters By Marc, which will be up later tonight. I'll also be selling different handmade monster related items in the weeks to come at the store that I'm really excited to tell you all about but I need to keep secret for now. Don't want to spoil the surprise ;)

    I've also been given a crash course in shipping and handling by Gabe, the wonderful gentlemen at my neighborhood shipping store. The shipping and handling stuff kept me from opening the store up sooner, but I wanted to make sure that I knew what I was doing before things got underway. Now things are full steam ahead!

    So again, thank you all for staying tuned to my page. I will be posting another announcement tomorrow for the official opening of the store. I will still be posting new frames here that I'll be selling in the new Etsy store, so if you still want to see what I'm up to you can. I will note on frames, or anything that I'm selling online that I post on DA, whether or not it is for sale vs just an art post. 

Thanks again and stay tuned!

Marc
