Heading into May...

May is a go...

Framing has momentum...

I got to see my first sample... and it way better than I expected.

I'm so stoked and I can't wait for my first 120 to arrive home.

It's taken me four long administrative months to finally get to this point.

And I'm happy to be finally gaining momentum.

I now know what they will look like and where we are going...

Let the journey continue.

Morning doodles... Evening discoveries...

I did this quick draw up before work.

I already loved her then and couldn't wait to find her when I got home.

And that I did... I really love her!

Gaining ground and I'm one happy girl!

Gaining ground and momentum.

I dropped these four off today with the framers too.

I saw my sample framed up today and I'm beyond stoked!

They are going to look so incredible all together.

Next big step - to find a location to exhibit.

At last...

I can't even tell you how excited I am about this.  It's taken me 4 full months to get to this point. I had no idea it would take me this long.

Settling on a framing solution and finding an affordable option without compromising on the vision or quality. And today I secured the next step - getting my sweet girls into their new frames.

These 120 odd TeaBagGirls, together with their 120 wooden frames are ready to be handed to my brilliant local framers for each one to be set professionally.  I'm actually feeling a little emotional about it. The next time I see them - they will be ready for showing.  It's a huge step!

Going forward, as I finish each month -they will be sent in for this final step.

I am beyond excited.

Getting ready for May....

I prepped my little mini canvases today and put them up on my studio wall.

I'm loving filling in the blanks.  And I 'm loving being able to see the month ahead.

I am hoping it will keep me motivated and focused.

We are moving into month 5.

Once May is over - we are almost half way... it's going really fast.

Maybe I'm noticing it more because each day is counted.

116 and 117...

Love these two kind of different but a little the same.

I had a bit of breakthrough today.

Feeling quite chuffed.

I'm almost ready to head to the framers to get some advice.

Now that I have my frames - I can try and do them myself but it might be easier if they get me going.  120 TeaBagGirls in their frames are overwhelming me a little.

I'll keep you posted.
