About The Grotto

Who?

The artist and builder behind the Grotto is only one person, Willow! Being the only one of The Grotto Creations, I'm the one who creates everything by hand, from my own set of skills and imagination. I've had previous experience in various crafts thanks to a few family members who have helped me out over the years. I also have a love for smaller crafts like sculptures, plushies and various other sorts of accessories. I enjoy providing customers with as much to choose from as possible, and all at a fair price.

What?

The Grotto Creations currently has specialization in fursuits. What's a fursuit? They are unique, one of a kind costumes made on commission to reflect an original design made by a furry fan. They are used for personal wear, conventions, and many people even use their fursuit to help promote charities and other benefits. 

When?

I started getting into the furry fandom in 2004-05, and haven't regretted it since! I made a few fursuits here and there over the years as well, and named my hobby (The Grotto) in 2014. 

Where?

When I first started The Grotto, Delray Beach, FL was my home! It still is my hometown, but I made the decision to move out on my own and come to the Orlando area. Central Florida has been such a blessing as a result of moving, and it's helped me to expand my business further. 

Why?

I make these unique costumes mostly for fun, but also to provide an affordable service to furries who want to share their characters among friends, and the rest of the community. Seeing a happy customer makes everything worth it!

How?

There's dozens of techniques used to make fursuits, and most of what I learned was from various communities and helpful individuals. In short, I get measurements from the customer, build a head/mask from soft upholstery foam, cover it in faux fur, then sew together paws, sleeves, and tails! 

If you're looking for help in building your own fursuits, Matrices has made dozens of very helpful tutorials for just about every facet of fursuit building!
Operating out of beautiful Florida since 2014!
