About
RRRAAAAAWWW textile design
Once upon a Nu, not a very long time ago there was a woman named Theresatron.
Theresatron lived in a very small but beautiful Queendom with her parents Herbertatron and Sandimus Prime, and her sister Amandaloohoo and her brother Bennigrinch. Theresatron was average in many ways but one thing that was distinct about her were her tiny and quick fingers. Theresatron inherited her tiny and quick fingers from Sandimus Prime and her fairy grandmother - Joan.
When Theresatron was little, she would use those tiny quick fingers to make beautiful finger paintings, pretty paper flowers and long long scarfs for the cold and rainy Queendom winters.
Theresatron was very happy making pretty things until one day an evil wizard saw Theresatrons tiny and quick fingers. He knew that he could use Theresatrons tiny and quick fingers to help him get very rich and powerful and that was all that mattered to the evil wizard.
So one night, the evil wizard crept up behind Theresatron and used a magic spell to put sad thoughts into Theresatrons head. "It's time for you to get a proper job" one thought whispered. "You will never make a living from making beautiful things" another said. "You're better off in Admin or something productive like that" said another.
And so under the wizards spell and full of woe, Theresatron went off to work for the evil wizard using her tiny and quick fingers to type at 50 words per minute. The evil wizard became more and more powerful and broke into pieces making other evil wizards who also made Theresatron work for them.
For 15 long years Theresatron worked hard for the evil wizards until one day she met a very fluffy and uncommonly fat cat named Nunu. Nunu was very smart and even though he was overweight, he was too quick for the evil wizard to catch. "Listen!" said Nunu to Theresatron, "you don't have to use your tiny and quick fingers to type for the evil wizard, look at these beautiful things on this website called Etsy"
"Yes" said Theresatron "they are very beautiful and I would love to make pretty things again, but how will I ever escape from the evil wizard?"
Nunu replied "I will use my special crafty naughtiness to help you. You will come to live with me and my human. He is very handsome I hear...not my type but he does alright with the ladies so I think you'll like him".
"OK lets do it", said Theresatron.
Nunu snuck into the evil wizards castle and ate all of his important documents. Then he went to the evil wizards closet and pulled down his black suit pants and rolled around on them. Then he used the litter box and straight away walked all over the wizards clean hardwood floors leaving chalky footprints.
"NO!" cried the evil wizard, "my designer Italian suit, it's ruined!" The wizard, so enraged by Nunus crafty naughtiness became confused and bought Theresatron and Nunu a ticket to Nunus homeland.
Theresatron instantly fell in love with Nunus land. It was surrounded by gargantuan snowy topped mountains and filled with trees the brightest green Theresatron had ever seen. The lakes and rivers sparkled like they were flowing with diamonds and pearls and there was a coffee shop on every corner.
"What do you call this wondrous place?" Theresatron asked Nunu.
"It's called Seattle", Nunu replied.
So Theresatron went to live with Nunu and his handsome human. Theresatron and the handsome human got married and best of all, Theresatron was able to again use her tiny and quick fingers to make beautiful things out of a rainbow of cotton floss, yarn and acres organic linens. As a dedication to how Nunu and his naughty monster craftiness saved Theresatron from the evil wizard, she opened an Etsy store and named it The Monsters Lounge.
Theresatron, Nunu and the handsome human lived happily ever after creating beautiful things to send to people all over the world, in the hope that they too may be inspired to escape their evil wizard and once again do the things that make them laugh and be happy.
Nunu, Theresatron and the handsome human hope you'll stay a while and look around. Drop us a line anytime.

Shop policies
My name is Theresa. I'm actually from England but I tripped into love of an American and we set up home in Seattle USA. All my items are handmade by ME. I work out of my home in suburban Seattle in a smoke free environment. It is myself, my husband Matt and our cat Nunu (aka Monster).
The shop is named after our cat who is the embodiment of a Monster!!! Big and very naughty. All items are kept away from Monster to avoid sending you an additional gift of cat fluffies and to avoid item death by cat claw.
I like to surround myself and hence this shop with things that are beautiful, functional and quirky.
I hope you'll stop and have a look around. I'm happy to hear from you and have a chat. Let's keep in touch:
