Dear Friends, Tumblr Followers, and Customers and Supporters of my Etsy,
I beg your patience and forgiveness over the next couple of weeks. The current Holiday season is the absolute most stressful time of the year for me. I often have multiple craft fairs every week, hundreds of orders to send (seriously!), and on top of that a full time job which I am just starting this month. It’s a lot to balance. If it takes me a while to get to your email, message, or custom request I hope that it doesn’t ruin your interaction with/opinion of me. I assure you it’s not my intention to blow anyone off, I just don’t seem to have enough hours in the day right now. That being said I want to thank each and every one of you for the support, encouragement, and kindness that this online community has shown me over the past year. I’ve gone from being a person who had never felt confident in their artistic abilities, to someone who makes a living crafting in under a year. If you’d told me last year that this would be my line of work, I would have laughed at you. I don’t think I could have done this without the many people who have sent me letters and messages of encouragement, advice, and constructive criticism. Thank you honestly and sincerely. I’m looking forward to the many new and exciting things I’ll get to share with you in the years to come.
Much love
Joëlle
