Seattle, WABrand · Retailer · Gift shop

Thomas Marnin and Skye Saylor graduated from university, somewhere in the high Rocky Mountains, long ago during the financial meltdown. With no big plans in mind, we both stretched our legs and moved out west to the Emerald City of Seattle. Small-towners though we were, we soon cultivated an understanding of this tech mecca and found ourselves able to brave the heavy rain and high rent. In 2012, Skye made the very first Donut Cat. She had been designing and making toys for friends for many years, and after absentmindedly doodling a Donut Cat she wanted to see if she could successfully assemble one out of fabric. That very first Donut Cat, created on a whim, was crudely made and not nearly as cute as its modern-day descendants. But it nevertheless found a place within people’s hearts and before we knew it, we were making more of the funny felines for friends and family queueing up with money in hand. The following year we exhibited at our first craft show and were juried into Pike Place Market as daystall vendors. In November of 2019, after six years of setting up our booth in the crafts area of the market, we opened our flagship brick and mortar store! Since then, the Pastry Pet world has grown to include merch and art based on our original Pastry Pet characters - Donut Cat, Honey Bun, Cinnamon Bun, Maple Bear, Eclair Bear, and more. In October of 2024 a new chapter of MarninSaylor began. We are no longer crafting toys by hand in our studio … but that wasn't the end for our little business. We’re excited to continue offering original artwork, and a new version of the Pastry Pets too! Stick around and see what new sweetness we bake up!
