Okay whānau… I’ve got a pretty big AL Printed Memories update 🥹
I’ve been super quiet on here lately, and honestly, a big part of that has been me mulling over a pretty massive decision.
Decision paralysis? Probably.
Avoiding the reality of actually having to make the decision? Definitely 😂
Because the truth is… I love the sheds. I love this business. And I really, really don’t want to leave my babies for months at a time.
So my brain’s been doing what it does best and going round in circles trying to find the magical option where I somehow get to do everything 😂
BUT! The decision has officially been made.
I’m heading back to the sheds for around 5 months 🐑
And that means making a pretty huge sacrifice and putting AL Printed Memories production on pause for a while.
This little business has taught me SO bloody much since I started it. I’ve printed tiny memories, massive 5-foot statement pieces, made mistakes, learnt on the fly and somehow built a pretty cool little community of people who trust me with their photos. 🥹
I’m not giving it up.
I’m giving myself 5 months to work bloody hard, save, learn, reset and do me. And hopefully come home in a position to give this business the proper push I’ve always known it could have.
BUT FIRST…
🔥 THE FINAL ORDER BOOK IS OPEN. 🔥
I’ll be taking new canvas + photo print orders for the next TWO WEEKS only. Until 30 September.
After that, I’m shutting the order book so I’ve got two weeks to print, stretch, pack and get everyone’s memories safely home before I pack down the print room.
So if you’ve had photos sitting in your camera roll thinking “I really need to get that printed…”
This is me telling ya.
Now’s your time 😂🫡
Let’s make these last couple of weeks count. ❤️
