We've had unseasonably cool weather for the last couple of weeks. That is until yesterday, when the heat and humidity road the wind on in and unpacked their bags. I have to say, I'm happy to see them. I'm sure I'll be taking that back long before August, but I was beginning to wonder when summer would arrive...
On Friday I shipped off my very first Buffalo Lucy order! I must admit, it was a little bitter sweet. Such a thrill to be sending my work off to its new home, but a little hard to say goodbye to something I've poured pieces of myself into. I get very attached to each creation as I saw and hammer and torch them into what they ultimately become. And then I feel proud of them and protective of them. Like my children. I look at each one and beam, "I made that!" So it's a little hard to say goodbye. But exciting to send them off. Exciting to think that these things I made are out there in the world, living their own little inanimate lives.
And speaking of sending things out into the world; please note that any orders placed after 10:00 am on Wednesday morning will not ship until I return from my vacation on June 3rd. Orders placed before that will go out before I leave.
Happy almost-Monday, sunny-ones!
congrats on your first sale!! here's to many more!
