Hello!
I am not very good at these introductory posts, but I suppose I can
tell you a little about myself. My name is Kelly Burgess, I am 25, and
live in Arlington, Massachusetts. I moved to a one bedroom apartment
this summer after living in a studio for a year and now actually have
room to decorate and put furniture. I decided to start making pillows
one day because I couldn't find any online that were my style and that
would go with my new couch. I don't find myself to be particularly
crafty (most of my endeavors into the craft world get abandoned before
they even get off the ground) but I always wish that I did something
with my hands. I would categorize myself as a
photographer first and foremost, but I also make forays into web design, book making, and make
feeble attempts at cooking.
I've
been working hard this month trying to get everything ready. I'm
hoping to launch by the end of this month if everything goes according
to plan. I have a
domain, set up
the shop, and have the blog in place. Supplies have been purchased and I'm on my way.
So here's a finished product and what you can expect once I get the shop up and running:
The
first step was to clean the vintage doilies. I let them soak for a
while in my kitchen sink and now they are clean and don't smell like
grandmas.
I've
even started making tags to attach to the pillows for when I send them
out. I don't have a dedicated craft area yet, so I've been working at
my coffee table. I'm very excited to get this off the ground, so stay
tuned for more updates.
