Cat’s Handcrafted Wood Furniture Is a Hit on Etsy

Smokey McWhiskers isn’t someone most people have heard of, but give it five years and he may just be a household name.  McWhiskers’ handmade wood furniture is taking the online world by storm, and drawing heads in the multibillion dollar home decor industry.

“He’s already our fastest merchant to $1 million in sales,” said Etsy associate community manager, Tad Newberg.  According to Newberg, McWhiskers hit that mark just 16 days after uploading his first chair and putting it on sale. High profile blog coverage on Luxist, Apartment Therapy and Re-Nest certainly helped get him there.

McWhiskers is said to be in talks with Crate and Barrel about creating a signature, mass produced line of tables, chairs and bed frames based on his designs, while Target has reportedly called about developing a more affordable spinoff.
