Ready, Set…
From the Workbench…
Next Up: Star Wars
The next collection was chosen over on Patreon, after always being a bridesmaid, Star Wars won in a landslide because, while I was at my seminar in Indiana, lobbying went over like gangbusters. There are currently 8 doodled designs, potentially upward of 10. As just a casual fan, this actually shocked me. This collection will be the first that I personally wouldn't have chosen, so creating that many designs is a milestone. Free and paid members alike get to vote in these polls, and there's now 62 people over there!
Leftovers & Drama
The leftovers from last month's pop-up event at the seminar are listed over in the Ready to Ship section. There are collars, bag holders, bags, leashes, and coasters. The pop-up resulted in record sales, and my dog was labeled the best of the 70 teams multiple times over by various instructors. If you're following me elsewhere, you might have seen how this event ended, though: Animal Control at my home, police escorting pet sitters out of my home, and me driving 9 hours overnight to pick up my elder dog at the shelter. This is a trauma I'm navigating quite publicly for perhaps the first time ever. The entire story is viewable on all my platforms, and I'm trying to get as many eyes as possible on it, so please go watch/listen at your leisure and share if you can.
New Tier: Show Ring
Over the years, I've had a number of requests for payment plans, but I've never quite known how to offer them. The website is outfitted with Klarna by default but lots of people shy away from such things, understandably, so I decided to create my own version over on Patreon. There are two of the four spots remaining at this new tier. Your monthly subscription goes toward the cost of an LE collar... 3x a year! So, if the price point has been a heartbreaker, I hope this makes the cost a little bit more palatable, with no creditor involved.
I will be away from the studio from June 17th to the 27th, if RTS orders are placed within those dates, they will ship when I get back.
