Since we really kicked things off around here, we have been busy, busy, busy! The learning curve is pretty big!
We started out with a simple Etsy Shop. Then a few items on Ebay. Invited some artist to join in. Pinterest. Twitter. Facebook.
We wanted our own website so we took the "easy" route and started a site through Etsy. That wasn't the right fit for us so I changed web Hosts. Oh! You can't move a domain registration for 60 days after creating it. So we had to wait. (Etsy's system doesn't allow modifications....it's a long story).
The day finally came! We got our authorization to move our domain and finally publish our website! Oh. We have to wait for it to all go through.
So, someday soon we will have a website again!
We have had a few artists come out and look around. The feedback has been great! We have a nice place to work and we have made a lot of new friends!
We have made it out to several local estate auctions, on the hunt for cool vintage items or materials that we can re-purpose. I have to say that is waaaaay fun. We have so many cool new projects to work on!
So, as we muddle our way through, we are getting a clearer vision of the goal. Which is: Establish a fun and convenient work environment for our selves and other local artists. Create Art pieces from recycled materials and pass on great vintage items that we find along thew way. Improve our skills and learn as much as we can and share that knowledge with others who want to learn! And most of all, have fun doing it!
