countdown. etsy.

The studio has been bustling! Bustling with creativity, delight, 
puzzles, mood swings, and a few solutions.

The packaging for the BeeBabyMine garments finally came together over the weekend. And I finalized a design for my Thank-You/Artist-Info card to accompany purchases. Since BeeBabyMine garments are meant to become family-loved heirlooms, describing the extra-special handiwork that goes into each one plus how to store keepsakes when the original wearer out-grows them was very important to me. Also, I wanted a nice thank you card for my customers. The ribbon on the card matches the ribbon on the package. Awwwww.

So, the countdown to opening my Etsy shop is into single digits now! I spent most of the day today making photos for listings. It was gorgeous outside but not all of the photos show off the colors of the garments accurately. Check out the indoor vs outdoor exposures of the Ice Cream dress.
Yes, that is the same dress in both photos. (sigh)

Dressing Fern (that's my mannequin) isn't easy. She wears size 12-18 months best. Some of my ready-made garments are size 6-12 months. We both got tired and cranky with all the outfit changes today. However, my goal to open the shop has been 12 garments and that's why all the outfits. Not complaining!

Tomorrow will see me setting up lights, camera, action all over again!
thanks for checking in, dear reader.
xo, Nancy
