On May 31st, I took my online shop on the road and it was a good time. A whole lot of work, but an absolute blast in the end. It was magical and I don’t think I could ever explain this feeling, but we have a joke about how the large amounts of crystals exposed the ‘true heart’ and indeed.. that was just it. You couldn’t hide from the “crystal energy” that night! The good ‘juju’ was at a high and the vibes were amazing.
For one night, I was able to display all of my crystals, herbs & jewelry to people beyond the screen and that was the coolest part for me. I haven’t uploaded everything to the shop that I have available for sale, so being outside of the online bubble was a great way to share everything that I have not been able to, up to this point. Sometimes, I also feel that it’s sort of difficult to fully appreciate these type of products online (i.e. the aromas, the various textures, sizes and quantities, etc.) but I digress.. This pop up shop provided the opportunity to display everything the way I’ve envisioned, in my mind, for some time. It was perfect.
In 2010, I met a young man while shopping at French Connection who has resurfaced as a blessing. David Rochez (@_davidrochez) allowed me to pack up all of my things and pop up at his event (sponsored by Patron & Grand Esprit), helped where he could and was so very accommodating. Not to get too, too sentimental, but I feel this was a full circle moment in my life. In this situation, he was an angel and I appreciate him. Although my studio is Still a mess and I haven’t hardly gotten anything back in order, the overall experience was nothing short of amazing.
I wasn’t able to get many pictures, and the pictures I did get, don’t do this event any justice.
Anyway, I think that is enough, besides my run-on’s don’t convey my gratitude. This will just have to do.
