Etsy OWLs Team Feature: Zemphira

This Etsy Owls Team feature focuses on Zemphira, another midwesterner who loves making dolls, toys, bags and other useful sewn items. Her creations are colorful, whimsical, and also quite practical.









I really love her style and the way she mixes fabrics in her fun and creative pieces. Check out her shop and I'll bet you'll fall in love with those plushie owls, too!

Etsy OWLs Team Feature: Inky Paws

Today's featured OWL is Inky Paws, a crafter also based in beautiful Oregon, in Bend. My regional neighbor seems to share my love of little creatures and soft textures--I already have one of her cute owls!





Not only does Inky Paws make the sweetest little plushies, she also hand-carves stamps and prints stationary:
