Nearing the end

At the end of this week is the deadline for all the pieces for the collab to be finished. If I want them photographed and in the catalogue book thing ( which I do).

So as you can imagine I'm madly finishing and making into the wee hours.

It's funny I have no idea what I will do once they are all done. I usually know exactly what I want to make next or at least some idea. But at this point it's hard to even imagine getting to that point, not having to think about what i need to make for it where I'm finished all the making.

I guess this collab has taken up alot of mind and time in the last year, especially the last six months so it's not surprising that I can't imagine life beyond it.

And the weird part is even when I meet the deadline and the photos are done, its not over or up. There's all the admin stuff to work out, prices, invites, blurbs etc. And then theres a whole month more of waiting. Waiting to show them to you and to the world. I think the waiting will be hard. It's been the thing I've found the hardest, the secret keeping and the lack of outside feedback.

Last week, i took a photo of That bear on my phone and was so about share it on Instagram.

I sat there for ages debating with myself and finally deleted it, saying to myself I've waiting this long to show him, why spoil it with a month to go.

But at the same time, i think I'm reaching the point where i'm ready not to be working on it. Like I've made enough , and I dunno I've reached the point where I want to get back to my own thing whatever that is. As wonderful as experience as it's been.

Here I am contradicting myself all over the shop. And probably not making any sense. Am I making any sense at all?

So that's my week and a bit where I'm up to .

What's going on in your world?
