The thing I forgot: self promotion

Like trekking through surf, I fought my way out into an open sea...

Wait, that's a terrible simile for finally getting my art to the shop. I've just delivered eight large and three small hair barrettes to ReTreasure where they are for sale on consignment. The display broke on the way there (Scotch super glue underperforms). I went to the office supply store first, got Krazy Glue, and fixed it.

I have a bad habbit of using what is closest or already out. The super glue was a poor choice for metal to paper. I constantly fight an inherent laziness. Frequently, I win!

What I forgot was an artist bio. I have to decide how I want to handle the web presence for this, too. It makes the most sense to finish my Etsy page and link to that. No rest for the wicked! I guess I could just fill the shop like a gallery.

I've been invited to do a class, even next month, which would be easy money. And I like teaching! I could make up a simple instruction sheet, include the hardware, and let participants select supplies from ReTreasure.

And now I can give more time to written projects!
