I grew up in a creative household and we always had tools and art supplies around. So whenever I need or want something, my gut reaction is to make it myself. And now that I’ve gone the DIY route with the shop newsletter, I figured it was time to tackle another project that’s been percolating for ages - a video!
Originally, I had wanted to have our core pieces featured in a sort of opening credits-style montage, but my budget (or lack thereof) held me back. So I didn’t have models or equipment, but I do have a stack of felt and a chalkboard. And on a dreary day here in the store, I fashioned some mini sweaters, sewed up a tiny curtain, braided some tiebacks and we were ready for action!
Is this 100% what I had envisioned when I was dreaming of making a video? No. But in some ways, it’s even better. And honestly, it’s probably more on brand.
