Hello Ladies and Gentleman!

Okay, so, yes...I am phasing out edesse designs, ask patrick, and the blog. Not completely but a lot less than I have in the past. I have received quite a few emails about what this all means so I have compiled them into this mini Q & A:

Q. I really like your STUFF, will you stop making STUFF completely?

A. No. I'm just REALLY cutting down on what I do. I have invested so much time, energy, and money into all of this. I just can't walk away completely. I just need to focus the majority of my energy on new pursuits! I will continue to take wholesale orders on select items and will, from time to time, offer really awesome "limited edition" goodies under the "ask patrick" business name. At this time, I don't know when this will be but check the blog for any new updates! I do think that I will do craft shows from time to time. However, as of now, I have no idea (or time) to figure out actual logistics. Oh...I will be announcing a really cool sale pretty soon as I need to get rid of a lot of inventory....I just need to take pictures!

Q. What about your furniture? Will you continue to make furniture?

A. Absolutely. Furniture is my first passion. Although time (and money) consuming; I love it immensely. I have given myself the goal of making one piece a year until I can do more. Right now, I am currently working on a piece that I hope to have up and ready for sale at the beginning of next year. Hopefully January...but I am writing my thesis this year so...who really knows! Again, please check here for any updates.

Q. Will you still blog?

A. Yes. Although I am in the process of starting another blog that is more relevant to my current research and the ins and outs of all that goes into that beast. I will eventually phase out this blog but I honestly don't know when that will be. However, giving up food inspired bliss will be pretty hard! Everything will be in phases...

Kewl!

I was looking for cool goodies to include within my ask patrick orders. I mean, er'body loves gum, eh? Alas, I found this bologna gum but also found it to be rather expensive! However, is not this awesome? From what I hear, it tastes just like the real thing! I kid, I kid.

Anyway, I decided on these nostalgic goodies:

 

So, as long as my HUGE supply lasts, ALL ask patrick goodies will come with a randomly selected pack of either Black Jack, Clove, or Beemans chewing gum! And when I say HUGE supply, I mean HUGE supply!

New Notebooks...ask patrick

In the shop! Happy Valentine's Day, er'body!

File Boxes

Most of these are now in the shop! If not, they will be soon!

This is it for now...I think...

Here's the first round of pencil cups which are available in the shop!

Grand Opening--ask patrick!

I FINALLY managed to get some goodies in my new shop, ask patrick! Currently, the shop is filled with these lovely pencil cups which I think will look pretty GRAND on your desk top! More to come, my friends! In the meantime, happy Friday!
