big thing #2

it's about time i actually updated everyone on all these big things i keep talking about....but never really divulge any information!

so here it is....big thing #2!


i've officially signed on with a canadian distributor. i was originally talking with them about doing both the u.s. and canada, but being a handmade company makes it very, very difficult to make any money......as they take a 50% cut. yeah....50%. so, i'm going to start with canada and begin altering the way i produce my products so that down the road i can afford have a distributor in the u.s. as well. this will free me up to concentrate on other things....like actually designing instead of invoicing, shipping, and calling on past due invoices all the live long day! it's very exciting and scary all at once.

so, if you happen to be a canadian admirer of my products, you should soon see them filling the shelves of your local stationery shops! they will be debuting at the Canadian Gift & Tableware Association Gift Show, Aug 10-14 in Booth #10545 Hall 10 International Center, Mississauga.
