Hello everyone!
It's a long weekend this weekend, so I decided to catch up on some orders. This one I was working on is for a store in Quebec! I'm anxious to get stuff in stores for christmas of course. So I thought I would make my day a bit more exciting by documenting everything! So here it is:
I love working from home. No need for makeup or to brush your hair!
I like to start the day with a fresh latte. Swiss Mocha was on today's menu.
I have to attach chains and loops to all my pieces, making sure they are nice and secure.
I have to mix up some paint colors to do any touch ups on my pieces.
The next step is to put tags and label the prices onto each item.
So I don't forget what I sold, I take a picture of them all together.
Then I document everything in writing, So i know how much worth of merchandise I am sending. If i didn't do this i would have no clue who I sent what.
Things Get a little messy.
Then I eat lunch!
Then I package everything up nice and neatly. I like it to be fun for the store owner to open what they ordered!
My goodness, after being stuck inside all day, I go for a bike ride down town to check out all the neat stores in Victoria. But of course, I don't buy anything.
I met an extremely cute dog named Smith.
Walked down to the ocean.
Stopped for a minute to remember why I had the day off.
This bird came with me.
And the finished the day off at the harbor!
This blog post was a joy to read and view. I love seeing the process of not just making the jewellery but also what happens inbetween all of that hard work. You are so lucky to live in a place where the views are beautiful and the buildings too. I really should go for a bike ride everyday. I hope to own one of your beautiful pieces of jewellery one day. I also wanted to say that I love you're coffee cup, it looks hand made and I love that killer whale painted wall. Every thing here looks so picture perfect.
