HELLO TRAVELER...
We're very happy you've stumbled across our little corner of the internet.
NOT GONE—Just on Break!
Hey friends, if you’re looking for our usual drops, they’re on pause for now while I take some time to focus on my health. The shop is on break, so traditional scheduled releases are on hold—but that doesn’t mean I’ve stopped creating entirely! I’ll still be working on projects here and there when I’m feeling well enough, and the best way to hear about them is through our Instagram, where I’ll post updates whenever something new is in the works or upcoming. :)
I really appreciate everyone who continues to support and check in. It truly means a lot, and I’m grateful for the patience and understanding while I take this time for myself. Thank you!
MEET CRANKIE TEDDY!
If you're reading this, then you have come face-to-face with Crankie Teddy. She appears when you have not given yourself enough credit for how amazing you are! Which is kinda unacceptable, when you consider the person reading this is awesome-sauce! Teddy is here to remind you to give yourself some TLC today, you deserve it. :_)
OH—! And drink plenty of water, Teddy says that's very important. ✔️
MEDIA CHECK IN!
We’d absolutely love to connect with you on Instagram—our go-to spot for all things CF! That’s where you’ll find updates, adorable content, and a glimpse into the ever-evolving world of handmade plush. 🧸✨ We’re also on Facebook, Pinterest, and TikTok! And if you’re curious, I’ve started a YouTube channel too. It’s an informal space where I share thoughts on making, life, and whatever else is on my mind—just me figuring things out as I go. ❤️
MADE WITH HEART + A LOT OF LOVE
Every Crankie takes time to create—not forever, I promise, but just enough to make it truly special. That’s the beauty of handmade art—each piece is crafted with care, attention, and, let’s be honest, a lot of coffee! ☕
That time and effort are what make your Crankies so unique. They’re not just art; they’re little pieces of love and dedication. And every time you bring one home, you’re not just getting something beautiful—you’re supporting a chronically ill maker (that’s me!) and helping me keep creating.
And for that? You’re an absolute rockstar. ⭐
🚫 No Boxes Allowed! 📦
I never craft a plush exactly the same way twice. Every Crankie is OOAK (one-of-a-kind). That’s not just a design choice—it’s symbolic. Uniqueness has always been at the heart of CF. Crankies started out as a way for me to pour pieces of myself into something physical & cuddly—an extension of a long (and ongoing) journey of self-discovery. Through them, I’ve been learning to embrace the parts of me that speak in bright colors, wild prints, and a kind of attitude that doesn’t ask permission. The parts that refuse to shrink or fit into tidy little boxes. And my hope is that every Crankie carries a spark of that energy for someone else too. A reminder that you’re allowed to take up space. To be different. To be fully, unapologetically you. 🌼
