April

Here are my ring a day rings for April



Total rings made in April 152. Including my 100 Rings. I sold 55 rings in April, 12 of which I sold to a small shop in Chicago called Binth.

Here you can see the view count for my shop in April, and then on the 22nd when one of my rings was on the front page for an hour you can see just how may views I got.



Here is another screen shot of my etys stats, you can see the number or orders I've gotten for each month so far this year, I hope it continues to slope up.

M.I.A.

So I've guessed noticed by now that I haven't blogged in awhile. Well it's mostly due to the fact that I've been super busy keeping up with my etsy shop these past few weeks. Almost a month ago one of my rings was on the front page of etsy for an hour, that one hour brought me a lot of custom orders in. Last month was an incredible month for my esty shop, this month is going really well too. Between all the work i was doing filling orders and the work i'm doing for John right now I only had so much time in a day to do things and blogging was just something i did not have time for. I'm trying to make time now because I want to keep thins going and hope to blog on a more consistent pace. I still might not get back up to one a day but I'm still going to try and blog a few times a week. So check back more often now because I will be posting new stuff.

Studio Transition

I recently dusted off my Canon AE-1 and took a few pictures around the studio. For the past few years I've periodically taken pictures of the space and then put the pictures up in the studio. It's great to see the transition of the space from one project to the next. Here are some of the pictures I just took followed by past ones.

Clock

I could use a new clock. I also want most of the things from Schoolhouse Electric.

1960s IBM Clock from Schoolhouse Electric & Supply Co on Vimeo.
Schoolhouse Electric & Supply Co. partnered with IBM to exclusively produce their iconic 1960s standard issue wall clock. The clock is a faithful reproduction of the classic IBM clocks found in offices, warehouses and schools during the mid-20th century. Hand assembled in Schoolhouse Electric’s Portland, Oregon Factory, it is constructed with a USA made spun steel case, domed glass lens, and the original graphic hands and faceplate design. Operated by a Quartz movement with a red, continuous sweep second hand.
