Before I get into the details of the sale, I wanted to inform readers of Puppets in Melbourne that commenting has now been fixed on the blog page. As explained on School of Puppetry, the issue was with the comments form allowing URLs to be submitted. A chat with my host reveals that they will not allow an exception for a security program that prevents people adding website links to comments, in order to avoid hackers, viruses, etc. This was not a problem with my previous host, and though there may be a way around this issue, for the time being I’ve simply removed the field from the form; at least now the comments are working. There are still a couple of minor bugs to fix, but fortunately shouldn’t be things most people will notice. This completes the work on the redesign of the site, minus a few tweaks here and there to make categories of posts easier to follow.

… Now on to the fun stuff.

In the past I used Etsy to post my shadow puppets for sale. It took care of the majority of work processing orders. However, as the last of my sales listings there have come to an end, and I’m moving on to other, better designs, I thought it was time to get rid of the final puppets I have in stock. There are 3 turtle shadow puppets, 2 jellyfish, 1 seahorse, and 3 starfish.  As it’s a clearance sale, all of them are 50% off! All relevant info, with pics, video and pricings can be found at the links above. Mainly I just want to move old stock out of the house; and as I’m not planning on making them ever again, this is your last chance at buying one! Or it could be considered a collector’s item… Go check them out!
