✨ First sneak peek of our July Ready-to-3D-Print subscription bundle! ✨

Build, count, sort, compare, explore odd and even numbers, measure height, and so much more—the possibilities are endless with the collection we’ve created for our July theme. 💛

More cuteness is still in the making! This mama just needs to find a little time at night to print all the samples and share them with you. 🥹

I hope you’ll love this month’s bundle as much as we’ve loved creating it.

Thank you for being part of our Little Makers Club! ✨

Love,
Eni 💛

If you own a 3D printer and love creating meaningful sensory goodies and learning tools, I’d love for you to check out our Little Makers Club. 💛

Every 1st of the month, members receive a brand-new themed bundle of ready-to-3D-print STL files designed for hands-on learning, sensory play, and creativity.

This treasure box and treasure set are just a small part of this month’s collection—there are many more designs included in the bundle!

And if a subscription isn’t the right fit for you, many of our STL files are also available individually in the shop, with even more individual files coming soon. ✨

Happy printing!

Eni

Ps.: the first sneak peek of our July bundle is coming this week! I’ll be sharing one of the cutest pieces tomorrow, and I can’t wait to show you. 🥰

This little Sundae Cup was supposed to launch last week, but summer swept me away. ☀️🍦

Between running the business, creating new products, and trying my best to be present for my girl whenever she needs me, the days seem to fly by. 🥺

The launch is a little delayed🤞🏼, but it will be worth the wait. ❤️

Love,
Eni

Ps.: I’d love your feedback! 🍦

Which color is your favorite for these Sundae Cups? And should I add a few extra accessories—perhaps a little cherry on top? 🍒✨

🌊 Happy World Ocean Day, friends! 💙

Today I’m sharing an old sensory setup that still holds such a special place in my heart. Looking at the photo brings back so many sweet memories of playing, exploring, and discovering the world together with my little girl.

As much as I love watching her grow and develop new interests, this mama heart feels both happy and a little sad at the same time. The days are long, but the years really are short. 🥹

I also wanted to thank you for your patience. The new goodies are taking a little longer to be listed because this mama is busy working through your orders. I wish I could do everything at once, but I’ve learned that I can’t push myself any harder than I already do.

And honestly? I never imagined you would spoil my little shop with so many orders. 🥹🙏🏼 Every single one means the world to our family. You make this mama’s heart so happy… even if my body is feeling a little tired these days. 😂❤️

Thank you for being here, supporting our dream, and growing alongside us. Wishing you a beautiful World Ocean Day filled with curiosity, wonder, and a little bit of ocean magic. 🌊🐚

Happy Tuesday, friends. 💙

I always try to post earlier in the day, but somehow it’s evening again before I get a chance to sit down and write. 🫣

I am so proud of what my little family has built, though some days it would be nice to slow down for a moment. Life keeps getting more expensive, and it feels harder and harder to keep up with the bills and live a “normal” life these days. We are truly grateful that we can keep creating and doing what we love. ❤️

Hopefully in the next day or two, I’ll upload some new goodies to the website (like this 5-section base for the letters and numbers cards, banana split dish, ice cream bowl, and more). ☀️ And if you have a 3D printer, we’ve also started releasing individual STL files. 💃🏼🖨️🏠

Thank you for being here and following our journey. My little family is forever grateful for your support.

Love,Eni 💙

This mama really doesn’t have a dull moment lately. 🥺

While I was taking pictures of some of our new summer-themed goodies that will be arriving next week, I got a phone call from the school. My sweet girl and one of her classmates accidentally bumped into each other during recess, and she split her lip open. One or two of her teeth are a little wiggly too. 🥺

After a visit to the dentist, we are home now, taking it easy, cuddling, and hoping everything will heal nicely. If you could keep her in your thoughts, I would really appreciate it. ❤️

I’m also running a little behind with orders after my hospital visit and the Memorial Day weekend. Please know that I’m doing my very best. Many orders will be packed and shipped tomorrow and Monday.

As a small family business, sometimes life happens all at once, and the last 2 weeks have definitely been one of those weeks. Thank you so much for your patience, kindness, and understanding. It means more than you know.

I won’t be adding a huge number of new products, but every single one was created with love, and I’m so excited to share them with you. I have a feeling you are going to love what’s coming. 💚

P.S. The Banana Split Bowl was inspired by a sweet mama, Heather , and yes… 🧲banana is coming too! 🍌✨
