Vintage twigs & honey

Posted on | Thursday, October 21, 2010 | 5 Comments

I was just reminiscing this morning and thinking back to when it all began. I listed my first piece on Etsy in January 2008 and it's been this amazing (and sometimes chaotic) adventure ever since. Here's the first piece I ever listed back when we were renting a little apt in Keizer, OR, I was working in government, and I had to take pictures with an outstretched arm...

I still use this one for my avatar image on Etsy. My sis asks me why I haven't changed it yet, and I think I might be a bit nostalgic. That was a lucky piece that set the rest into motion.

I've always loved that pic! You've come so far with your business and designs from your determination, dedication, and hard work. I've said it before- that I remember those posts of you working in the wee hours of early mornings and going to work with very few hours of sleep. It's inspiring how you've developed T&H and it continues to thrive, as it should! You deserve it Myra!

Myra, lovely!
It's been toooo long!
I remember that pic - it's what caught my eye back in '08 when I was lookin' for something extra special to wear for my wedding. So happy for all of your success! You deserve every bit & more.

Hope all is well & lovely!
