Almost there...
I've prepared something and I want to share it with you all!
For a year I worked on a beautiful side project which I hope it can turn into a full time business someday.
It took me this much because I wanted the result to be more than just good... I wanted to be perfect! that's why I cured every detail of every product, of the website, of the packaging, every detail of everything!
In this past year I've learned a lot about everything! I've learned new things, new processes, new skills, I've entered into wonderful worlds completely new to me, I made mistakes and I learned from them, I met new people who introduced me to other amazing people but THE most important thing I learned this last year is that one should keep going, doing, moving forward despite mistakes, delays, obstacles, difficulties and problems.
This last year I cried, I laughed, I was happy as a child when I felt the silk with my photos printed on and when I saw my foulards with those amazingly vivid colours I felt proud. Sometimes I felt exhausted and so far away from the starting point that I wanted to quit. But I didn't. I continued. Now all I feel is Excitement for what is to come, Curious about the new things and situations but mostly I feel proud and greatful: proud of myself and grateful because I didn't stop.
I've made a lot of samples of everything and there are involved the best manufacturers, the best silk, the best people I could find and I am finally ready to launch the first items from a long series of motifs I prepared.
I really hope you'll enjoy the results of my work.
I can't wait to hear your opinions about my new website (which will go live in the next 24 hours!) and about my products in comments and direct messages
I really count on your support
Thank you!
Erica Manole
