pipe cleaner core wrapping around commission logo signifying orders are open.

     I’ve been building anything and everything out of pipe cleaners for over 15 years.

If you've ever wanted a fully-articulated fuzzy figure of a favorite character-

perfect for arranging on display, interacting with miniatures,

taking on adventures, or even posing for stop-motion animation,

                                                ….now's your chance!

Read below for an explanation of my rates and terms before filling out the order form.

Summer 2025 OPEN:
4/12 Slots Taken

Pipe Cleaner Entities (PCEs) can be made in a variety of ways,

with a surprising amount of detail and articulation.

Because of this variance, I’ve sorted my pricing into three tiers

based on size, complexity & degree of poseability.

Tiers are defined by their minimum price- depending on discussed details and requests,
the number of articulation points, complexity & color variation can add to the price.

Tier 1:  Starts at USD $50

  • 4 inches & under 

  • 6 colors maximum 

  • Simple, bendable articulation

  • Few built joints

Characters with few colors and relatively simple designs- can also include simplified designs of more complex characters for a pocket-size PCE that still has a wide range of motion & expression.

Tier 2: Starts at USD $150

PCEs built at this tier carry their characters’ typical detail as well as more fine-tuned articulation and color choice. Certain pipe cleaner stems are no longer in production, meaning that once my cache of certain colors is used up they’re gone for good- I’m a lot more likely to use that stock on this tier and the next.

  • Includes figures over 4 inches 

  • No color maximum

  • May include rarer / discontinued pipe cleaner stock 

  • Complex and intricate shapes, more advanced articulation

Tier 3: Starts at USD $300

  • No color maximum, may include rarer/discontinued stems

  • Includes figures up to 10 inches at their greatest dimension

  • Considerably large / complex figures 

  • Detailed features like articulated mouths or eyes 

  • Can also include custom-built pipe cleaner add-ons like removeable props/ effects or built-in elements like magnets/ inclusions of other mediums

  • Want some glamour shots or light animation? Got a video idea? Let’s talk multimedia!

The final tier includes large and heavy figures with in-depth construction, and can also include media projects relating to a particularly premium PCE. The Centerpiece tier is meant as a catch-all for those of you who want to turn me loose and see what I can do with your ideas.
Take a chance, you won’t regret it 😏

I will...

  • Provide in-progress images of your commission upon request at any point!

  • Ask for every detail possible when judging color and articulation to match your vision to a reasonable price! 

  • Begin working once paid a deposit of 1/3 the agreed price if sent confirmation receipt

  • Always respond to serious commission inquiries with a free quote, so ask for clarification if you’re unsure if what's listed under "won't" applies to your design! 

  • NEVER charge for shipping 

I won’t...

  • Build nude/ sexually explicit/ overly gory figures— or build intricate mechanical or textural detail. (Not sure? Ask!) 

  • Outright deny a request due to obscurity, complexity or articulation as long as references can be supplied

  • Build a PCE longer than 10in/26cm as its greatest dimension for a commission

  • Build highly realistic human figures— particularly not of real, living people. It’s just not what I use the medium for! 

  • Raise the price after a deposit of 1/3 agreed price is paid unless discussed & agreed upon

  • You must be over the age of 18 to commission me.

  • 1/3 of the agreed-upon price must be paid in order for me to begin working. This deposit is non-refundable once I've begun working unless it is necessary to cancel your commission. 

  • Commissions are accepted on a first-come, first fully-communicated & agreed basis. I will not confirm your commission slot until I've accepted a paid deposit. 

  • There is no guarantee I will confirm your commission, but I will try to promptly respond to every serious request. I’m just reserving the right to pick which commissions work best for my own sanity.

  • You're welcome to offer to pay more than the price I quote you in our conversation to increase the chance I confirm your commission.

  • Sending / receiving a message or paying me ahead of time does not confirm your commission slot.

  • Commissions will be started upon receipt of deposit but completed largely in tier order- i.e. Simple commissions take the least time and will be completed before more complex Centerpiece orders.

  • Once all 12 slots are filled, I will not be accepting any additional orders until I reopen.
