Lady and the Cat's first accessory line is blowing my mind and consuming my life. It's exhausting and challenging and basically a second, unpaid full-time job, but I would have it no other way.
Clearly, my skill doesn't lie in the area of rough sketching...I mean, this is literally rough sketching. Really rough sketching. But I digress. All of my Lady and the Cat goodies are really coming to life, and while ceramic pieces were an unexpected addition, I have truly become obsessed with them. I haven't had this much enthusiasm and energy for an original project in years, or ever, really.
There are a couple small kinks I'm hammering out construction-wise with these pieces, but I'm working away like a madwoman and if all continues to go as planned, my Big Cartel shop will be announced very soon!!!
I will also be venturing out to a local craft and antique fair a couple towns away in a couple of weeks. The Hunt and Gather Market, hosted by Old Green Shutters Antiques happens (I believe) twice a year in Crown Point, IN and seems to be one of the largest and coolest handmade markets in my area. I am so excited to go browsing, because I really think that Lady and the Cat's items would work well in this market. I am looking at this adventure to The Hunt and Gather Market as a combo ladies' night out/research field trip and can't wait to scope out the scene.
Slow and steady, the proverbial ball of yarn that is Lady and the Cat is rolling away, gaining momentum like a little champion. And I am one proud mama.
