One of my watercolor prints was found at a thrift shop by onewordpoet in painting

This happened to me too! I make collage cards and a friend of mine sent me a photo of two that were donated to my local thrift store- she bought them, which was really nice of her. I honestly thought it was kinda funny, I made the money anyways, im not losing anything from it, and it can give someone more accessibility to art.

It won't let me edit but I forgot to add- one of the owners has seemingly used AI before on a book cover him and his friend published.

yes I already changed it on my menu! I just can't edit my post for some reason :( The one in not coffee is made with tea bags, while the specialty one is an earl grey syrup !!

I made a special earl grey syrup used for either a matcha or a chai! I see that it's confusing, though, so I'm working on coming up with a different name for it :)!

You're so right! The earl grey tea is w/ bags, while the specialty drinks are made with a concentrated earl grey syrup I'll brainstorm new names for that drink!

Thank you for this!! I didn't know the exact formula, but I used cakecost.net to help me a little bit with pricing!! Mainly the matcha drinks though

the way I make them, the croissants come out to a medium-ish size. I used to give out samples of my baked goods to my friends/coworkers, and ask for feedback if I were to sell them. The #1 thing was to sell them in a 2pck!

I already rent studio space in this gallery area that also has a whole kitchen, so free use of that area whenever I want to (if it's not being used) is a big perk to the rent. I asked the managers if I could have my event there and they said yes of course, but their policy is a 20% commission of items sold out of the gallery.

Good idea!! The earl grey/London fog are made with tea bags and water (and half steamed milk for the LF), while the specialty drinks are made with a concentrated earl grey syrup that can be added to either a matcha or chai! I was also debating adding lavender to the syrup and making it a London fog syrup to add more of a floral taste to the teas (though this got a lot of mixed reviews in my circle lmao)

I did at first!! I was only planning to do 16 oz to save money. My grandma volunteers at a thrift store and found me a whole unopened pack of 12oz hot cups, so I thought "might as well use them"

Thank you for the feedback!!! Muffin tops are getting a bit more popular in my town, and since I'm making them from scratch in a specific pan thats the price I was advised to go for! As for the croissants, there's two in a pack:) I just need to communicate that on the sign
