I apologize for my lack of...everything lately. U_U A lot of things have just been conglomerating together into a really busy month so far. I promise all this busy blows over, which hopefully will be after next week, you'll be seeing new pillows, new prints, more journals, and more of me being active on here. Be excited, it's going to be worth it
Jafax happened several weeks ago. Went off pretty well I'd say. Met a lot of really awesome people. Sold a good chunk of my stock. The profits I'd expect from a con that size. If it was three days instead of two I think I'd be a little happier but overall we did great. ^_^ Me and Jeremy were the dynamic duo as usual but my younger sister, Amber, tagged along as well. She got to cosplay for the first time, she chose Shaymin ground form Gijinka. I helped make her flower hair clips and she did some chores around the house for the wig. Did a cute photoshoot, as well as her being super happy/embarassed that people wanted her picture. XD Got to run into several people I haven't seen in a while. (Val, Katy, etc) Except Angel, saw her like two weeks before that at colossal... XD So with that, that wraps up my 2012 summer con season. Normally I'd have Glass City Con, but with this years cancellation I didn't really get to pick up a replacement con. Heres hoping GCC will be back next year! If anything I did get a free TAG Fest table out of it.
This nutrition class is evillll *hisssss* Tomorrow is my last day. Can't wait to be done with it. Then I'll be off for a whole month!
Fall term kicks in the 3rd week of August and I'll be taking some of my most anticipated classes yet. Concept Illustration and Figure Illustration 2, amount other less amazing classes.
Online Commissions have been booming lately. So grateful for that! I think I'll be throwing in a nice sale soon to thank everybody for such good business. ^_^
Going on Vacation next week
With my family... U_U Not the best circumstances, but hey I love going to TN. The national forest there is one of the most beautiful places I've ever been. I'll be nice to get away from it all and relax for once. Still debating on whether I should put the shop in vacation mode or let Jeremy keep an eye on sales and inquiries.
It's still in the works but It looks like starting August 1st I'll be doing a charity donation for The Michigan Rabbit Rescue. There cause is near and dear to my heart and in order to help out I pledge that during the month of August 20% of every pillow sold will be donated to MRR at the end of the month.
