DarlingHomebody is taking a short break

Note from shop owner Hello weary wanderer! My shop is temporarily closed and will reopen sometime in July 2021.
But why?! Well, a number of reasons with the main ones being that I am moving soon and the Dinocats are being sent to Chicago's Museum of Contemporary art where they will hopefully find a nice person to adopt them. I also just need time to catch up on a lot of things. Don't worry though! I will be back soon and maybe even have a couple of new things for you.

About DarlingHomebody

Sales 894
On Etsy since 2012

Eat. Sleep. Create. Repeat.

The creator, Nicole Jakus, is an aspiring artist currently living in Chicago, slinging comic books by day and crafting by night. She developed Darling Homebody in an attempt to fulfill her insatiable need to create and learn new things. Her appreciation for functional art, plus her love of cute animals and dead things are reflected in everything she makes.

The best part about Darling Homebody is that you don't even have to make your cat get off of your lap in order to support an independent artist and treat yourself to something creepy & cute at the same time.

Also available at these stores!
Chicago Comics - Chicago
Paperish Mess - Chicago
Reckless Records (Belmont) - Chicago
Rotofugi - Chicago
Wolfbait & B-Girls - Chicago
