fifty shades of wolfiness

What happens when a certain little wolf decides on his own to turn his first day of calendar photo shoots into a free for all comedy hour? Pretty much this really. :) #comedygold

r u ready for the summer :)

The beginning of summer is always so full of promise and anticipation. There are books to be read, beaches to be visited, gardens to tend, and of course much fun to be had, even if summer mostly means sitting at a desk every day. I like to think that baxter and duk duk takes all these things into consideration when they dream up the little goodies for our shop, which is why their tiny summer cyber doot fair is so rich this time not only with the return of recent resin favorites, but also new goodies to delight the senses and help make summer as special as they think it should be.

Going to a summer wedding? Why, you’ll need cootie protection of course.

Looking to tidy all your keys to the house and rocket ship? We’ve got u covered!

Stuck inside the office all day? Do not worry, we can bring the sunshine and smelly flowers inside to you!

Got a lot of boring reading to do? We can keep your place and make it funner!

Need a little help enhancing your ferociousness temporarily while u work on your summer tan ? Hee hee, looky!!

Needless to say, we’ve got a lot of work to get everything into the shop for sunday night, and it might just be a little more than even I anticipated if a little wolf and falcon have their way...

mom, do u think i can borrow dad’s electric razor? just to, u know, shave a small, o, u know, 2 inch area on my hiney quarter ? for um, well, no particular reason really...:)

dooting june 3: smelly 2.0 peecret garden limited edition felt flower reed diffuser set and more!!

..hee hee, yeah me, too, duk duk. i mean, seriously, i do not know how, but we always seem to be able to come up with something super cool every time! i guess when u like smell as much as we so, the inspiration just comes sort of naturally really, even if they are inspired by something as smelly as the flowery stinks of the garden.

hee hee, yeah, i know, i wish we could have made more that 20 diffuser sets but mom said it kind of took a long time sewing all the pretty flowers from the wool felt. and then there was all that sanding and making all the packaging and well, we are using essential oils for the smell this time so, u know, there is that...

but i hope they all get wonderful homes because even after the diffusers are done smelling, a beautiful tiny felt flower garden will remain for people to enjoy forever. and if they want to, they can even cut out the stinkbugs we put all over the packaging. yeah, that was genius really.

speaking of genius, i am also really glad mom is letting us do a cyber doot fair so we can doot a bunch of things at once so hopefully people can save a few gummy worms on shipping. and that way, if anybuddy missed out on cootie protection amulets or weenie stack rings, or maybe they need a little F(art) for the home or office, or maybe they need some experimental cool things we made for father’s day, well, they can do all their shopping at once! yeah, i know, our marketing will be all over the place but i think we’ve made good progress on developing an angle for it. we really need to start photographing everything for our listings, too.

o, smello, mom. hey, me and duk duk were wondering if finally for our next smelly set, u know, not this one, cuz it smells of flower stink, well, we were wondering if finally we can make a poopie scented set. u know, cuz, it would smell amazing? :)

Saturdoot is coming :)

..hee hee, well let's not count our snakeys just yet lil pink puppy. but yeppies, if we help sell them all this Saturday on Saturdoot at noon and nine pm EST,  then mom said we can have all the proceeds! and u know what that means - we can refurbish our trebuchet and goto the candy store and probably have enough left over to get flames painted on the pedal car.  well., i mean, if we are good about not spending too much on gummy worms.  which is probably like, never...so, maybe instead of spending money to paint flames, we can just ask mom if we can borrow some paint and chocobot can provide the glitter if u know what i mean. hee hee yeah, chocobot.  wait, what's that, lil pink puppy? really? u think so? which one?

oh yeah.. i see what u r saying.  i guess even though they are all different, they are all like that really, what with the ferociously cute little wolfie dangle on each of them.  i mean, his face is almost as expressive as mine is, right? yeah, for something so deceptively simple in concept, well we all know how much work goes into making them, but for something so simple sounding as a gilded fetching stitch brooch,  there is so much depth to them when u think about it. so much meaning behind it. and look at all the texture and colors.  they are all so pretty, it's like take everything good about spring and summer and roll it up on a stick.

and, well, who says u have to pin them on your clothes, especially if u r like me and half of the year u go nakey nakey except for a collar? i mean, what do u do then?  u could put it on your book bag or a pillow or display it in a shadow box, or just keep it by your computer and play with the dingle dangle while u wonder why every day isn't take your wolf to work day.  yeppies, i can totally see why these would be good mother's day pre-..

-sents.  mom, did u happen to make an extra one for us to gi-, um, i mean, do u have a fav-,  is there one we can keep borrow for, well, um, no special reason? we promise we would give u back 2 u..like..next sunday. :)

the fetching stick :)

tiny chumley was more than happy to oblige this past weekend after he had exhausted the possibility that a bunny might be in our backyard. fetching? for snackies? uhm, like, yeppies!

The grass had grown long enough that sometimes he would lose sight of the stick i threw and bring back a different one, or sometimes a leaf, or sometimes nothing, accusing me ever so politely of a ruse i did not commit, and fully expecting his payment in full.

I like to think that every little wolf owner has a story about fetching. Some little wolves love to fetch. Others, like tiny chumley, fetch out of a certain kind of love, and others, love not fetching at all.

This week tiny chumley and I will be working on Etsy listings for our newest creation, a series of vibrant gilded fetching stick brooches, made with carefully fetched and aged hardwood sticks, gold toned leaf, hand formed pin assemblies, colorful pretty bits and bobs collected over years of making, and each adorned with a dangly little weenie pup whose pose and eyes pretty much adorably say it all.

I love how these little pretties turned out. You might also say they are quite..fetching! Ha I suppose that’s why I usually leave the marketing to baxter and duk duk. Who most defintely will be working the channels this week to get the word out so do stsy tuned. The doot, by the way, will be this Saturday the 5th of May, at noon and nine pm eastern standard time.
Happy Monday !! :)

yippee there will be #supersundaydoot

do not worry, mom. we have it all worked out. duk duk said he will help u finish up the cootie protection amulet listings today while i go out and dig :)

if weather >=70 then todo= “dig” else doot=“sunday”

Though the little kielbasa and I are very close to finishing up another batch of cootie protection amulet necklaces (yay they’re so pretty by the way!!), tiny chumley’s ever expanding blanket of snowy white fur is wistful reminder that his pleas to go outside and dig in the loamy soil of spring should not be ignored. And so, with temps in the 70s as it has been with random irregularity, our makey pauses...

and we dig and sniff deeply into the soil...

and we wash..

and we look deep into the neighbor’s backyard, plotting our next ferocious fenceline fracas with stinky bassets.

and we think, we can probably start telling everyone we are planning to have a necklace doot this sunday at nine pm EST, but stay tuned because it kind of depends on the weather because there are many holes that need to be dug this week :)

tiny product tester

well, mom, i know it is risky, but a wolf’s gotta do what a wolf’s gotta do. especially with our cootie protection cyber craft fair being tomrorow nite and all. everything has to be substantiated and in order. just gimme a sec to take off my collar...

whoa..i can feel it protecting me already. this one is really pretty but it might be a little big for today though. i mean, in the miniscule chance that things go wrong, i need to be nimble, know what i mean? okay, lemme try another one..

hee hee, o yes, this one will do. it’s a little smaller so i won’t trip on it. i really like how they all turned out, dontchoo mom? i mean, like, they are all so pretty with the gold and the red stuff and the shiny and the matte and the subtle iridescence. nobusdy who does not know would ever know their true cootie protective powers, on valentine’s day or any other day really. and if they work on a ferocious wolf like me, then they would pretty much work for everyone.

well, i guess we should get this test over with so we can finish adorning some of them with dingly dangly pearls and make our etsy listings. lemme just ask duk duk 2 hide my collar and..

okey dokey. i think i am ready as i can be. cassie can come inside now. :)

save the doot date: baxter and duk duk’s cootie protection cyber craft fair (just in time for valentine’s day) :)

dear diary,
have u ever found yourself in the awkward position of being surrounded by cooties and having no way to escape them? have u ever wished u could always have protection from cootie infested uknowwhos who will never understand how to go stand over there, without having to constantly get more and more anti-cootie vaccinations? do your anti-cootie booster shots seem less effective lately? well, do not worry, my friends, because me and duk duk have got u covered with all the super cool cootie protection items that we have made for our first ever cootie protection cyber craft fair.

that’s right, just in time for valentine’s day, we will be dooting in very limited supply a variety of items we designed and helped mom make to help protect u from cooties, capitalizing not only on the protective powers of smell and fun..

but also the mystical powers of amulets, which we made in a variety of shapes so that they will be perfect for keeping in your pocket or putting around your neck. here u see one we will be making into a necklace.

anyhoo, i suppose i should get back to helping mom finish the amulets, so, i would like to close my saying i hope u r able to save the date and join us for our cootie protection cyber craft fair doot this tuesday the 6th at nine pm eastern standard time! :)

toodley-doo!

etsy fresh: baxter & duk duk's guts and glory dachshund xray secret story valentine's day card

hee hee, omg, duk duk, our super new xray guts and glory valentine's day cards turned out really swell, dontchoo think? do not tell mom, but this totally makes up for actually having to get that darned xray from the scary special tushie man so long ago.  i cannot wait for everybuddt 2 find these cards in our etsy shop!
 

  

what's that, duk duk?  yeppies, i agree.  i am glad we resisted the temptation to color that part brown like we really wanted to.  it is definitely more subtle this way.  and that way it can be a secret that nobuddy will know except u and me and anybuddy who knows what we know if they know where 2 look.  

 so on the outside, when u r giving out valentines, u can look all innocent and be like,  "hi howya doin? my what a pretty dress u r wearing. cooties, what cooties?  here's a valentine's day card, see ya. "

 
and on the inside u can be like, hawhaw, the jokes on u - i just gave u a valentine with an xray of my incredibly packed poopie filled colon on there, too. 

 
well okay, intestines.  but colon just sounds better when u think it, doesn't it?

anyhoo, i sure hope our friends think this will be a unique and swell valentine's day card to send to their friends this year because i know we do! :)

clicky here to score yours today! :) -->

work in progress :)

ooo, i like it! and maybe we could try the baby rosy pink flat one next. u know, with the sparklies on it over there? that would be very valentiney too. but, u know, in a subtle yet sophisticated way. kind of like how when u add frenchy onion soup mix to monkey chow chili, it kind of helps bring the olfactory equivalent of unami to the afterparty if u know what i mean..

hee hee oh yes me likey! okay i think we have our nose option number eleventy twelventeen! u are going to try and make as many weenies as we have valentiney options, right mom? :)

o christmas glee

hee hee, okay mom, turn it on..

ooOoooOOOOoOooooooOooo!

thanks, mom! this is exactly what we wanted. now we just need to put a red ballie on top and it can dry while we are at school. and then, when we get home, we will make our masterpoop video and then we can post it this evening and everything! :)

wolfy wolferstein, PgMP®

hee hee, yes please, mom, i would like to see...o snap. i guess u do still have a lot of finish work to do, mom. when me and duk duk were developing our doot schedule, i guess we were only thinking about the number of sets we wanted u to make and not the number of individual items u would have to spend time on.

and i see how pretty they are and we certainly would not want to rush u..

okeky dokey, i agree. let's move the doot date for our ornaments from monday 12/4 to saturday 12/9 at nine pm est and i will tell duk duk so we can update the first video we made and post it to instygram and facebooky.

u know, this schedule change works out really well really because it hopefully gives me and duk duk more time so we can make a second ornament video. because the first one was meant to be a teaser . u know, kind of like so when people see it, they would be like, ooooOOOOoooooooOOOooo - did u see that? i think i saw the legs move and i know i saw the tail move and i wonder what the rest of it looks like and haw haw haw didjoo see the size of the poopie plop it made??

(pfweeeOoooOoop!) um, mom, u are still wearing your gas mask, arentchoo? :)
