Improvements at Panda With Cookie



I now have my very own Panda With Cookie logo tags for my monsters and tote bags! Above are the front and back. I've been waiting for the tags to come in and finally had a chance to sew them into some new monsters.
Below is a sneak peak at a wee monster army of ornaments for the upcoming holiday season, all with new tags. Now when people see my work, they'll be able to find my store online.

Panda With Cookie Featured in 2 New Gift Guides


I am thrilled to see that I am featured in two new etsy gift guides this morning. My tofu pirate apron is in the slow food guide and my yellow flower garland is featured as a artful entertaining pick.
Thanks etsy!

Panda With Cookie Cake


I would like show you the first ever Panda With Cookie cake, complete with cookie monsters on top and Cheerwine frosting. My lovely friend Lila and her son created this and it made my night when the picture popped up on my Facebook feed. Toby recently got a red pirate monster which may or may not have led to the cake color choice.
