What Fun It Was!

Friday’s trunk show at Arco Avenue debuting the Jackson Metro posters and cards was an absolute blast!! Thank you a million times to everyone who came out! I loved getting to see so many people!

I got to set up on my favorite new piece of furniture in the store– the three-leveled table designed by Elish and made JUST for Arco– so that was a great start, and things just got better from there!

The new Merci Beaucoup calligraphy and watercolor cards had almost as good of a day as the Jackson Metro items did, so that was fun! Sometimes I just never know what designs will take off and which ones won’t! πŸ™‚

Cookies and champagne are two of my favorite things, so it was fun to have those on hand too! Since I can’t really do champagne right now, I had the next best thing on hand– sparkling water! Love that stuff!

These bad boys are 11 x 17 (so frames this size DO exist, but you do sort of have to look for them!) and are printed from my original hand-drawn design onto 110 lb. off white card stock. I love how they turned out so I hope you do too!

There will also be a clear map overlay available for purchase so you can actually see where the stops are! These are not ready yet, hence the lack of photo! πŸ™‚

Jackson Metro Posters + A Trunk Show!

Hey y’all!

How was your weekend? Price was gone this weekend so I was able to get so much done that I haven’t had time to do the past few weeks/months! It felt great to really tackle my list and cross through a few big things!

One of the things on my list was to get a digital form of the Jackson Metro mapΒ that was originally painted on aΒ wall at Arco Avenue cleaned up and sent in to get printed into posters!! At the request of several friends, this is going to be a real thing in a matter of a week or so! I’m SO excited!

I’m also having some clear overlays printed to put on top of the map so you can actually see where all the stops are! Pretty excited about that too. πŸ™‚

Here’s the map:

And here’s the overlay:

And here’s what they look like together!

I’m especially excited to see how these turn out in person!!! Enough with the computer files, I need something I can hold!!! πŸ™‚

Speaking of… πŸ™‚

I’m teaming up with Katie at Arco Avenue for a TRUNK SHOW to debut these babies! I’ll also have some notecards (plus an overlay to go with!) of the Jackson Metro design as well!

The date is Friday, August 22 from 12-6 so mark those calendars!
