MaeMae is Hiring!

When I moved into my new studio I wanted TWO desks. My main mega one for designing, paper work, etc and a second one for crafting. I convinced the good ol' hubs to let me get that second desk but have never used it for crafting. I did try to use it for a while for packaging, but it ended up being covered in endless stacks of stationery, envelopes, and calligraphy samples.

I have cleaned off the sweet desk, put up a bulletin board, plugged in my laptop, stocked it with scrap paper, pens, pencils, scissors, 4 kinds of tape, wrapping paper, tags, and baker's twine, and now need some super creative and hardworking interns to sit at it!!

I loved the set up so much I actually sat there for about an hour doing emails.
