New information on my stores.
Today marks ten years of dedication to otters and the people that love them so much. Otter Things started on a whim after I created my original I Otter Be® illustration. I always had a difficult time finding wares with otters on them. Oh, I found bears, dogs, and even unicorns, but otters were never […]
Here we are – the end of 2020. And it’s about d@mn time! This year has felt like an eternity for me. I look back at events that happened in January or February, and they seem so long ago. I can’t even remember if I had a New Year’s resolution, let alone if I kept […]
An elementary school gym teacher hired me to create a special design to mail to her students. Teaching young students physical education skills in person can be difficult, but it is even harder to do it virtually. She knew they struggled with self-motivation, so she wanted to inspire and encourage them to stay active while […]

Glacier Bay National Park’s official Twitter account shared a video of dozens of sea otters floating together in a “raft.” No, they’re not on a three-hour tour. Even though sea otters are great […]
I know it’s been kind of depressing watching the media lately, so I wanted to give you a little good news to brighten your day. Many businesses are opening up, and my printing associates are able to work a little faster with the increased number of facilities and employees. What does that mean for you, […]
I wanted to take a moment to say thank you to everyone that has shown support for my business in this challenging time. For weeks now, the entire world is adapting to a new economic environment. I use that term, as opposed to “new normal,” because life in an environment ebbs and flows. It has […]
The last Wednesday of May is International Otter Day (or World Otter Day), and The Otter Specialist Group (OSG) held an art contest to celebrate the day.
