These are wargaming related, hence I am posting this on the off topic forum. If this needs to get rolled into my news thread, so be it. I figured it was better to post here to begin with, as again these are not wargaming items directly.

I have a new local artist that I am highlighting on my web store: my friend Diana makes homemade textile items. Specifically, she wanted to trial her bat-o-grams (bat stuffed animals with a handwritten card) on my webstore.

I can vouch from personal experience that they make excellent gifts around spooky season. And some of them are very pun centric (baseball bats anyone?)

Those are cute.

I agree. I also love the puns she works in, like the "Baseball Bat"

They make excellent gifts. Especially as the "Bat-o-Gram" where a card with a hand written note dictated by the customer is included.
