Jungle Vibes Trading Co.

Welcome to the jungle! The day has finally come… @knitsbyed is now @junglevibestrading! ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ Jungles are important. We need jungles. They store and capture more carbon than any other habitat on land. They cool our planet, provide food, and are a source for new medicines. Across the world, we are losing tropical forests at the rate of nearly 40 million acres every year and with it the planet’s treasure trove of diversity. Coral reefs, sometimes called rainforests of the sea, form some of the Earth’s most diverse ecosystems. Just in the last 30 years we’ve lost 50% of the world’s corals. We lose them all at our peril… ⁠⁠ ⁠ If you’re already following, please stick around. If not, be sure to follow so you don’t miss a thing.⁠⁠

It’s Bat Appreciation Day!!! Bats play such an important part in our ecosystems. They control pests and help pollinate essential plants. They do so much! Show them some love today, they really deserve it. Remember 10% of all the profits from bat items go to @merlintuttlephoto they tirelessly work to educate people of the benefits of bats and encourage people to get along with them and help save their environment. #savethebats . . . . . #holidaygift #handmade #handcrafted #teatime #mug #coffeetime #creepycute #batsarecool #bats #batconservation #junglevibes #endangeredspecies #hotcocoa #happynewyear #miniatureanimals #animalart #animallover #flyingfox https://www.instagram.com/p/BwXX6gZBn5w/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1oirft9rxime7

On March 19, 2018 Sudan the last male northern white rhino died. After hearing the heart breaking news last year I was really inspired and felt compelled to make a rhino ornament in memory of Sudan. I’m offering them again this year and only during the month of March. Get yours in the shop now. Link in the bio. 10% of all the profits from these rare little guys will be donated to @helpingrhinos to help save #rhinos all over the world. . . . . . . #handmadegifts #handmade #handcrafted #knitted #ornaments #softsculpture #textileart #northernwhiterhino #lastmalestanding #endextinction #savetherhino #whiterhino #africa #kenya #safari #sudan #olpejeta #sudantherhino #extinctionisforever #ripsudan #endangeredspecies #conservation #stuffedanimals #lastmalestanding https://www.instagram.com/p/BueQorRh-3M/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=r2nt9kgpoghm

Say hello to most endangered sea turtle in the world. You can get your own Kemp’s Ridley Sea Turtle in the shop and help the @coralrestorationfoundation at the same time.

Nothing too exciting today, just making some black bear heads. One of the most complicated steps is trying to avoid wasting fabric, it’s like a puzzle trying to get all those pattern pieces laid out just right. . . . . . #handmadegifts #handmade #handcrafted #knitted #makermonday #softsculpture #textileart #fauxtaxidermy #stuffedanimal #stuffedanimals #sewing #craftroom #sewingstudio #onmydesk #workspace #animalart #animallover #blackbear #fauxfur #sewingproject #sewingpattern #sewistsofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/Bsn4A1EhSWL/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=secd7ovxrtdu
