CafePress has not quite been balefired by Zazzle…

Alright, has anyone checked out Zazzle? They’re like CafePress, only a million times better.

Instead of needing to start different stores for each different design theme (Wheel of Time, LOST, Cutest Baby Ever, etc.) I can have one store for everything, sorted into categories. Instead of having to place one design on each individual type of merchandise I want to sell it on, I can add the design to a shirt once, and customers can place it on any type of shirt they have available. Score! And it’s free; no need to pay for a premium shop.

So I’m working on moving my Wild Eggplant Wares over to my Zazzle shop. They gave me this nifty little widget to display my designs, too!

Please feel free to leave comments full of praise. I love it.

New Black Tower design replaces the old Black Tower design in the CafePress shop

The Black Tower trucker hat has always been a popular item, but I wanted to make it better. I think I managed it, too, and I added the design to several other items in my CafePress shop, Wild Eggplant Wares.

I’m quite proud of how awesome the mousepad turned out.

New kids apparel in the CafePress shop for boys and girls

For the young Wheel of Time fans who don’t quite fit into adult sizes, I have some special kids designs at Wild Eggplant Wares. The girls’ designs say “White Tower, Class of 999 ne.” The boys’ designs say “Black Tower, Class of 999 ne.” So for all of the Aes Sedai and Asha’man in training, t-shirts and sweatshirts!

New baby, infant, toddler apparel in the CafePress shop

If you were interested in the maternity shirts at Wild Eggplant Wares, you might want to take a look at the brand new baby apparel! I’ve never had a design for the infant and toddler merchandise before, but I finally decided that baby clothes would really reflect the fandom of their parents… So the baby t-shirts, onesies, bibs, and teddy bears all say, “My Mommy is an Aes Sedai and Daddy is her Warder.” Aww… how cute!

New Maternity t-shirts in the CafePress shop. It’s always a man’s fault!

If CafePress had offered maternity shirts back when I was pregnant, I would’ve bought one of these for myself! The women of The Wheel of Time have long lamented that “It’s always a man’s fault.” When is that more true than when you’re pregnant? There are two t-shirts with this appropriate WoT quote, light and dark. The design is right on the belly.

New Saldaean Farmgirl design in the CafePress shop

The old shirts said, “I’m feeling forward as a farmgirl.” Why give it all away on the t-shirt? The new design only says “Saldaean farmgirl.” Now it’s a conversation starter. You can decide how to answer the cute guy who asks you, “What’s a Saldaean farmgirl?”

You can get the Saldaean farmgirl design on tank tops, t-shirts, plus-size shirts, and even a thong! Only from Wild Eggplant Wares.

New Nae’blis design in the CafePress shop; old design still available

My Nae’blis shirts have been my top sellers ever since I opened Wild Eggplant Wares on CafePress. I guess everyone likes to feel a little bit evil sometimes. The old design looked horrible on the new plus-size women’s shirts, so I needed to create a new design, and I discovered that I no longer have the font I used in the original design. Both designs are still available in the shop, but not on the same kinds of apparel.

The new design is available on long-sleeved t-shirts and plus-size women’s t-shirts.

The old design is still available on t-shirts, a men’s sleeveless shirt, and a sweatshirt.

Which design do you prefer? The old one or the new one? I’d love to hear your thoughts!

New Warder design in the CafePress shop

Men aren’t going to want to wear anything girly that says Green Ajah on it, so I added a very manly Warder line to Wild Eggplant Wares, my CafePress shop.

There are several different colors of t-shirts, some long-sleeved shirts, a golf shirt, a mug, a beer stein, boxers, and buttons available with the Warder design.

New Wheel of Time merchandise in my CafePress shop

CafePress changed their pricing structure by adding a $3.00 fee for any apparel with designs on both the front and the back. So I redesigned a lot of the items in my store to make it more affordable (the original price I had intended) by removing the back designs.

I will be showcasing the new designs here over the next few days. The first new design I’d like to put in the spotlight is the brand new Green Ajah line. After all, The Wild Eggplant is the unofficial inn of the Green Ajah! I think the new design is much cuter than the old one. Do you agree?

There are a number of items available with the Green Ajah design, including several colors of t-shirts, hoodies, a tracksuit, tank tops, a mug, a tote bag, and a messenger bag.
