Well, one week has past and not much has happened. The timeline that I had planned has been rewritten and it's looking much much tighter. When making things as complicated as watches, I unfortunately can't do everything myself and unfortunately one of the people that helps me in the process had an emergency this past week which is why the dials of my watches are not in my hands yet.
However, all is not lost! There should still be time(barely) to get the stainless steel watches I mentioned in my last post finished. I did get the rest of the parts and materials I need for them today, which I'm very happy about! New straps, more cases, some different coloured luminous powders and some other items. Here's two photos of the luminous powder...love that stuff!
I've also been working on my showcases...making some slight modifications here and there to spruce them up. Can't have them looking shabby for the Queen West Artcrawl!
I also got my new credit card terminal up and running. I used to use the old behemoth credit card imprinter...you know those ones that you have to run back and forth over a card which has an imprinter slip over it, I always called it the chunka chunka machine because of the sounds it made. But not anymore! Through the miraculousness of technology I can now do Visa and Mastercard transactions through my iPhone! I'm so happy to finally be part of the 21st century. I even have a swiper thingy that attaches to the iPhone. Here's a picture to show you what it looks like:
Only 18 days left to go until the show and things are looking a little worrysome but we'll just have to wait and see what this week holds. I'll have more for you next week and as always please visit my website, the Queen West Artcrawl website and if you have a spare moment, follow me on twitter!
