My autumn shop update went live yesterday and there's a zine in every single order. 🥹🍂 It makes me so happy, it's what I loved making the most and zines are actually what I want to focus on in the future so yay! 🧡 Thank you/Merci to everyone who already placed an order, it means the world to me.

A photo of a white hand (mine) holding a small zine. The cover is a photo of an orange autumn leaf. Title is "Autumn Intelligence" at the top left corner. "A zine by Charlotte Friday" at the top right corner, and "published in october 2026" at the bottom.

Very proud of this zine though. I hope you will like it! 🍂

A photo of a white hand (mine) holding an A6 zine. The cover is a photo of an autumn leaf taking most of the space. The title of the zine ("Autumnal Intelligence") is in the top-left corner. In the top-right corner, it says "A zine by Charlotte Friday". Text at the bottom says "Published in October 2026). It is printed on light brown kraft paper.

For this upcoming shop update, I decided to print my own cards at home for practical, ethical & financial reasons. I also wanted to make my cards more affordable so I went for simple monochrome illustrations on beige paper which don't require too much ink and I actually like them a lot! 🐈🍂

A white hand (mine) holding a brown postcard with an illustration on it: it's a simple doodle of a cat stretching, wearing a checkered scarf and with an autumn leaf that fell on its backside.

The stickers have arrived! 🍂🎃🐈‍⬛ Autumn shop update coming soon! 🧡

A photo of a wide opened white hand (mine) with six stickers on it. We can't see all of them but the ones at the top are a black cat sleeping on a pumpkin with the phrase "Never Spooky Always Sleepy", a cosy cottage, a coffee pot, Luke's mug and donut with the phrase "I'd Rather Be in Stars Hollow", and someone wearing an orange cardigan reading a book called "Autumn Book Club". Under them, a Pumpkin Juice sticker and a Polly Pocket sticker. They are all digitally illustrated and in autumnal hues (orange, brown, beige).

Autumn stickers are officially ordered! 🍂📔☕️ I wasn't sure I'd be able to work on a autumn shop update this year but I'm slowly getting there (currently working on a couple of postcards & zines, plus digital goodies for my international peeps). Hopefully everything will be ready by October 1st! 🎃

So I made a Cat Corner on my website and coded a random Nutella Generator so you (and I) can admire her endlessly. 🐈 I even added a cat cursor and a cat font because coding is amazing, you can do whatever you want, so might as well go all in! 🐈 charlottefriday.com/cat-corner

Screenshot of my new webpage called The Cat Corner. The title uses a cat font (each shape features a cat). Under it, there's a photo of Nutella, our tabby cat, laying in a cardboard box and looking straight at the camera. There's a little presentation underneath and two buttons, one leading to her About Me page and the other (Admire Me) leading to the Nutella Generator.

Today is "mowing day" (our landlady pays someone to mow our "lawn") so I took pictures of all the wildflowers before they get cut. 😭 We marked out a big zone which we always ask them not to mow for the wildlife but it still hurts (& she truly doesn't get it because it doesn't look "clean"). 🙃

I got a reply from Payhip - it's good news (for now). Not a lot of people know of or use Payhip but after using Squarespace & Shopify for years, I'm glad I switched to this platform (it's free if you pick the plan with a 5% transaction fee, it's UK-based, self-funded & not owned by billionaires).

A screenshot of an email reply from Payhip after I asked them if they were planning on implementing Agentic Storefronts:

"Hi Charlotte,
Thanks for reaching out! I completely understand your concerns. As far as I'm aware, we don't currently have any plans to implement or integrate agentic storefronts. If this is something that were to be considered in the future, we would make sure to take user feedback into account, including the option to opt out.
I hope that helps.
Many thanks."

I've always loved packing orders but it's become a lot more fun since I stopped making candles! Making sure they were safe was sooo stressful. Packing flat items is so much more relaxing (and quicker too!). ✉️✂️🌸 Merci mille fois pour vos commandes ! 💛 charlottefriday.com/collection/boutique

Gotta love a Moomin spring comic. 🌱🌸🌷

A black and white comic strip of the Moomins by Tove Jansson.

First frame: Moominmamma is stirring something in a pot on the stove. She says: "Crocuses, shavings from a newsly-tarred boat, feathers from a swallow, the last icicle, that's the essence of spring."

Second frame: Moominpapa, wearing a top hat, looks at her pot. He asks: "What are you making, Moominmamma?". She answers, while stirring: "A potion for Fillyjonk."

Third frame: Moominmama comes out of the house. Moominpapa stays on the threshold, eyes wide open. She adds:"To awaken a feeling of Spring in her."
