I hope you're all having a romantic Saturday.
I'm back on Blogger, as I've been having some serious technical woes back on the old .com. And since blogging has become a huge and important part of my life and this business venture, I couldn't let any of those issues get me off schedule.
But sheer habit aside, I also have some exciting news to share!
Last week, I got my first batch of ceramic kitty charms back from the kiln. If you follow my .com blog, you may remember that I started toying with handmade ceramic pieces to see if I'd be able to make them into jewelry. Basically the goal was kitty head charms embellished with upcycled papers (tissue paper, magazine clippings, and book pages), sealed with matte medium. I wanted to give the final products a textured look rather than simply glazing them.
These are a few of the charms before going into the kiln, and obviously without any embellishment. I did share a sneak peek of one of the finished products on my Instagram, but I really want to hold off on sharing any final products until they're 1000% done. But let's just say you can expect items to be online and available to order by the end of March, with a giveaway for my followers when the shop is fully stocked in April. I would love to release everything sooner, but I have to work out some of my aforementioned technical kinks before I have a final online shop location to share with you all.
In the meantime, expect more blogs at this location and more sneak peeks via Instagram!
My apologies for any potential confusion with my switching back to this URL for posts. I promise I will keep you guys updated with any changes regarding web locales for this blog, and I sincerely appreciate anyone who has stuck by me since the birth of this blog. You truly do not know how much your cat lady loyalty means to me...hopefully my upcoming giveaway in April will express at least a small fraction of my appreciation for you all!
Now go snuggle with your cats. It's the day of love, for goodness sake.
