2021 Commission Update

2021 Commission Update

If you have joined the studio newsletter, you’ll have seen the recent email regarding Pebbles/Collecta/etc commissions. I had a much bigger response than expected -thank you, everyone! I hadn't planned on mapping out 2021 yet, but based on the level of interest I sat down and put a tentative plan on paper. As always, this is subject to change and if you have any questions please drop them in the comments, email me at studio@dreamflitedesign.com, or touch base via social media

PEBBLES/ETC SCALE COMMISSIONS

I have blocked off January and February for the four people who are interested in Mini Anise commissions. Everyone else - I have April, July, and November blocked out for Pebbles & similar scales and will be working through the list of people that have contacted me. I don't think there's any way to hit all of you in 2021, but this is the rare occasion where I will be keeping a waiting list.

OTHER COMMISSIONS

Right now, the tentative plan is to offer regular Stablemate scale commissions in May, August, and October. I will be offering two each month, to be filled by lottery a bit in advance to allow time for payments for those who need them. In March, June, and September I'll be offering first come, first serve commissions for small things like boots, bridles, saddle pads, halters, etc etc. So many have asked me for these things and they just don't fit in my regular schedule! At least to begin, there will be 10 spots available each month, subject to change as I figure out a rhythm.

BREYERFEST

In anticipation of a virtual event, I’ll be prepping for another Artisans Gallery sale. Details to be announced as available.

CALENDAR

As always, I’ll be booking things in blocks and all of my schedule is subject to the whims and vagaries of life. This is all what I HOPE will happen, but after 2020 I’m not willing to commit to anything to firmly!

January: Mini Anise, round 1
