This unique Etsy shop was started by an ambitious 13 old who wanted a way to send her dragon-themed products to dragon fans everywhere. Her business started first through a series charity fundraisers. Once it was clear that her product had great kid appeal, she decided to try her hand at selling her products to help fun her savings for post-secondary education. She continues to sell her dragons at vendor sales (where sales are very strong) as well as through Etsy.

Her product range started with Rainbow Loom Dragons, and has expanded to included crochet dragon bags, original, shop owner drawn, t-shirts for young girls, women and even a design for pregnant women, too. Once the maternity t-shirt has been added to her Etsy shop, she plans to complete a dragon design for a 3D printed pendant.

Stay tuned for even more dragon products to be added to the store! Artist and Owner (Charlotte Gerwin) and her Mom that helps with the business aspect of the shop.
