March 28th - Plant Cards

Another short-ish post for today because I am wiped out. The reason for the wiped-out-ness? We finally started painting the basement.

Yesterday, I took a walk over to the plant shop that’s just a couple blocks from the house to buy a Passover present for Austin’s mom. I’d given the store owner my website before in the hopes of her potentially carrying some of my prints, but I figured it was a long shot. I know that I, for one, would 100% lose the slip of paper with the website on it that I just knew I had put somewhere really smart but was absolutely nowhere to be found.

But when I went in yesterday, she said, You’re Larkin, right?

Yeah! I’ve bought quite a few plants from her already, so I assumed that was how the name recognition was clicking. So I was pretty surprised when she said, Yeah, I thought so! I checked out your site.

We chatted through the logistics of her carrying some of my cards (!!) & have been putting together a couple different designs for her to look over.

This is a very rough draft of one design I’ve started. It’s missing something… but I can’t quite put my finger on it. Let me know if you have any ideas!
