Day One of Open Studios went really well. I decided to teach people how to make little books with my promotional postcard and my day went by super fast! Lots of great friends, family and neighbors came by. I really enjoyed teaching the kids, the adults too… but the kids are so interesting. They have lots of different ways of doing things that get the same results. I so appreciate this opportunity to learn and be taught by them. I want to connect with other people and build relationships and this is definitely a way to do just that.
