Meet & Greets are BACK!! I LOVE EVERYTHING DISNEY - SO COME ON IN AND JOIN ME! You'll be glad you did!
Hello, and welcome to my shop! I know it's hard to spell, and in retrospect, I should have chosen an easier name, but now that I have repeat customers, there is no turning back. For those that are confused, HOWDDODE stands for Howdy Do Dee. He was a red haired puppet with freckles from the 50-60's. And when I was younger, kids used to call me Howdy Do Dee. (Or Lucille Ball!) So there you have it!
Like many people here on Etsy, I am a stay at home mom, I am trying to get by just like everyone else. I don't live in a mansion, I don't own new cars. I am just trying to make a little extra money so that my family can go on a vacation every now and then and pay some bills, (college, taxes, heating oil and electric come to mind). And as anyone knows, the bills just don't stop coming.
The designs take me quite some time to create, and I take great pride in doing so. When I started creating these over 15 years ago (kind of a hobby), it was because I found that a lot of people would like PERSONALIZED books.
Once upon a time I worked in Manhattan at a Consulting Firm, where I did most if not all of their graphic's work. Having a background in art, I wanted to do something that showed my creative side, while still getting to enjoy my children as they grew up. This is the perfect mix of both worlds. I got to create these great ORIGINAL ideas for my books and tags and share them with the world, while I got to stay home with my kids!
I do love to create MY BOOKS and TAGS. Each design has been thought up by me, but I don't mind any recommendations. Need something you don't see, just let me know!
Thanks for looking, sorry to be so longwinded! Have a VERY MICKEY DAY!!!
