Missing the studio but I am thoroughly enjoying being present for myself during these last few weeks before Oliver’s due date. I know I’ll never get this time back. It’s been two weeks of celebrating with family and friends, taking a lot of naps, doing all my physical movements to prepare for my marathon, nesting, and straight up doing nothing.

I’m making gentle strides with getting ahead of my fall return. I have leather being cut out by my Ohio partnering team and I’m in communication with a potential new leather tannery. Hoping to get started with a small batch production of Ready To Ship at the Chicago partnering team’s facility here in a few weeks.

I know I wouldn’t be able to take this time off without the success of the last few months of business. I can’t thank my customers enough for showing up for me! The confidence and security you gave me with your orders set the tone for my journey of motherhood and blending it in with my creative entrepreneurial… it can be done!

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

I’m very proud of all the work that was accomplished over the last two months! These are the final two DYO orders that were on my list ~ Hannah’s Melissa Bag and Deb’s Xtina Bag. Now I get to enjoy our baby shower, nesting, meditation, leisure time during my maternity leave and wait for this baby boy to make his appearance!

Shout out to my girl lexi for slaying it in the workshop as ultimate production assistant and helping me finish nearly 80 units of leather goods since June. I literally may have broke down mentally and physically without her lol. With her help, I was able to finish my grant mentorship with Nest , vend at 𝙇𝙤𝙨𝙩 𝙇𝙖𝙜𝙤𝙤𝙣 𝙏𝙖𝙩𝙩𝙤𝙤 + Party At The Pen + chopper__barn , & even go on our yearly lake life trip to Michigan with friends… plus so much more life things that summer time called for.

The online shop will officially be going on vacation Tuesday, July 28 to August 16. All remaining Ready To Ship bags and accessories will be headed to STURGIS RALLY for an artisan pop up with Sturgis Jewelry.

I might do a final sale on RTS at the end of August if I’m still waiting for this baby boy! TBD, obviously. 😚😚😚 xx, Alexz
