1. I have teamed up with Emily LiMandri of Natty Paint. She designs and hand silk-screens really excellent graphic tees. Her designs include bicycles, skeletons in mid-makeout session, peacocks and lots of other great things. We've been setting up a table together at the Waverly Farmer's Market in Baltimore for the past few weeks. Come stop by if you are a Baltimorean. We're also planning to team up and create some hand-made, hand-silk-screened shirts (yay!). I'll post some pics once we whip a few up.
2. Moving! I am moving July 15th to a great little rowhouse on Guilford in Charles Village. I am very excited to have my studio, the internet, and a kitchen and food all in one place! (Right now I make all my clothing in one place, but eat, sleep, and use the internet and do all my photos and shipping in another place...this sounds like a relatively minor inconvenience, but I am not a person with a gift for organization, and forgetting things at one place or the other has been a major time-suck. It reminds me of friends of mine who had divorced parents in high school, constantly forgetting homework at Mom or Dad's house.) I'm also working for Outward Bound for about a month from late July-mid August. So, I will be moving all my stuff, then in the woods for a while...which will most likely be a big setback for my etsy business. Hopefully the time away and the excitement of moving into a new place will help motivate me to make more things, and my new setup will increase my productivity a bit.
