We always receive some comments and concerns about the purchasing process, and I really do want to do everything I can to make the experience as easy as possible. Here are a few Etsy troubleshooting tips for making the whole experience go a little more smoothly:</span></div> <ul style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"> <li><span style="color: #666666; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11pt; font-style: italic; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Sign up on Etsy in advance.</span><span style="color: #666666; font-family: "trebuchet ms"; font-size: 11pt; font-style: italic; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </span><span style="color: #666666; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">If you do not already have an Etsy account, I strongly recommend making one ahead of time. I believe Etsy allows you to store preferred payment information in their system, and that way it can be all ready to go when you are ready to check out!</span></li> <li dir="ltr" style="font-family: arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; list-style-type: disc; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="color: #666666; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11pt; font-style: italic; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Check out quickly</span><span style="color: #666666; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> - Etsy does not hold items for you in your cart. I have had many people complain of calendars being removed from their carts before they could check out. If you know that you would like to purchase a calendar, pick one and check out as quickly as possible to avoid losing out to another customer.</span></li> <li><span style="color: #666666; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11pt; font-style: italic; font-weight: 700; white-space: pre-wrap;">If possible, check out using a credit card. </span><span style="color: #666666; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Etsy allows two payment methods, but if you are using Paypal, the checkout process can take longer. Customers who have bought girls in the past have reported better luck using Etsy's direct checkout with a credit card.</span></li> <li><span style="color: #666666; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11pt; font-style: italic; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">One at a time, please</span><span style="color: #666666; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">. I can't set a limit on the number of calendars that an individual customer can purchase through Etsy, but if I could I would request that you purchase one at a time. This helps to make sure that the checkout process goes more smoothly, and also allows for more customers to get calendars!</span></li> <li dir="ltr" style="color: #666666; font-family: 'trebuchet ms'; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; list-style-type: disc; vertical-align: baseline;"><div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.4727272727272727; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"> <span style="color: #666666; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11pt; font-style: italic; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Try a few times</span><span style="color: #666666; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">. I'm trying to spread out the release schedule over a few dates and times to allow more people all over the world to have access to the calendars when the arrive in the shop. If you can't get a girl in the first round, please try again at one of the later times.</span></div> </li> <li dir="ltr" style="color: #666666; font-family: 'trebuchet ms'; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; list-style-type: disc; vertical-align: baseline;"><div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.4727272727272727; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"> <span style="color: #666666; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11pt; font-style: italic; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Refill Clarity!</span><span style="color: #666666; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11pt; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </span><span style="color: #666666; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">A consistent issue that customers seem to be running into is confusion about the Wardrobe Refill Packs, so I wanted to take a second to clarify exactly what they are.  The refill packs are intended to replace previous-years' pages f</span><span style="color: #666666; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11pt; font-style: italic; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">or customers who already own a Calendar Girl</span><span style="color: #666666; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">. Every new Calendar Girl comes with her own set of pages, so if you are looking to buy a full calendar there is </span><span style="color: #666666; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11pt; font-style: italic; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">no need to purchase a refill pack</span><span style="color: #666666; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">.

I had many people complaining that they had calendars in their cart that were removed before they could check out. If you know that you would like to purchase a calendar, pick one and check out as quickly as possible to avoid losing out to another customer.</span></li> <li style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px 0px 0.25em; padding: 0px;"><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><i>One at a time, please</i></b>. I can't set a limit on the number of calendars that an individual customer can purchase through Etsy, but if I could I would request that you purchase one at a time.

A stomach flu hit me last Friday morning, so I spent 24 of the unhappiest hours of my life in a hotel room at the happiest-place-on-earth. Thankfully, I'm on the mend, but I'm so sad to have missed the event! I've got a second Wonderground post ready to go, so that those of you who weren't able to come to Anaheim can get a closer look at my second piece for the show - that should be up tomorrow…</span><br /> <span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">But first! I had hoped to release this schedule earlier in the week, but sickness put a wrench in those plans. Sickness also halted production a bit, so I wanted to make sure that I would be able to hit this release schedule before putting it out there for all of you.

I had many people complaining that they had calendars in their cart that were removed before they could check out. If you know that you would like to purchase a calendar, pick one and check out as quickly as possible to avoid losing out to another customer.</span></li> <li style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px 0px 0.25em; padding: 0px;"><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><i>One at a time, please</i></b>. I can't set a limit on the number of calendars that an individual customer can purchase through Etsy, but if I could I would request that you purchase one at a time. This helps to make sure that the checkout process goes more smoothly, and also allows for more customers to get calendars!</span></li> <li style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px 0px 0.25em; padding: 0px;"><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><i>Try a few times</i></b>. I'm trying to spread out the release schedule over a few dates and times to allow more people all over the world to have access to the calendars when the arrive in the shop. If you can't get a girl in the first round, please try again at one of the later times.</span></li> <li style="margin: 0px 0px 0.25em; padding: 0px;"><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; line-height: 18px;"><b>Refill Clarity! </b>A new issue that customers seem to be running into this year is confusion about the Wardrobe Refill Packs, so I wanted to take a second to clarify exactly what they are.  The refill packs are intended to replace </span><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 18px;">previous-years' pages f<i>or customers who already own a Calendar Girl</i>. Every new Calendar Girl comes with her own set of pages, so if you are looking to buy a full calendar there is <i>no need to purchase a refill pack</i>. Conversely, buying refill packs will not reserve full calendars. Basically, if you don't already own a calendar from a previous year, I don't recommend buying a refill pack (unless you are just looking to have a pretty set of dresses in your life :)</span></span></li> </ul> <span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 18px;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18px;"></span><span style="line-height: 18px;">So that's it!

It will be the first time in a long time that <a href="http://lisakeene.com/">Lisa</a>, <a href="http://www.lorelaybove.com/">Lorelay</a>, <a href="http://jigokuen.tumblr.com/">Helen</a>, <a href="http://victoriaying.tumblr.com/">Vicky</a>, <a href="http://claireonacloud.com/">Claire</a>, and I will all be together, and we are all very excited!</span><br /> <span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I was asked to create some new artwork to be released at the event, and while I had quite a few initial ideas, top priority went to this young lady. Have I mentioned that I'm a fan? No? Huh. Well, I am.  It may be to the point of unhealthy obsession, but I try to channel that energy in the most productive ways possible. Thus, very large paper-cut artworks are born.</span><br /> <span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This piece is titled <i>What's a Fire?</i>, and stands at about 36 x 16 inches, making it one of the larges pieces I have worked on in some time.  </span><span style="font-family: helvetica neue, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">I fear that I may sound like a broken record for those of you who have been around for a while, but Part of Your World was my introduction to pure magic, and remains the standard that I compare all movie moments to.  I could go on and on about why it is just perfection, but the bottom line is that it makes me <i>feel. </i>And I love that.</span><br /> <span style="font-family: helvetica neue, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: helvetica neue, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">The original piece will make its debut on Saturday at 11am, and I believe that prints and possibly a few other items featuring the artwork will be produced through the gallery as well. I'm sure that the six of us will be taking pictures the day of, so stay tuned on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/britsketch/">instagram</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/britsketch">twitter</a> (and who knows, maybe even Periscope?) for real-time updates. </span><br /> <br /> <span style="font-family: helvetica neue, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">And as you may be able to tell from the title of this post, this is just Part 1 of what I have in store for Wonderground. I'm really excited about Part 2 , and am hoping to share with you tomorrow:) </span><br /> <span style="font-family: helvetica neue, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: helvetica neue, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Have a lovely evening everyone!</span> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn' itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://www.blogger.com/profile/00316981640661295618' itemprop='url'/> <a class='g-profile' href='https://www.blogger.com/profile/00316981640661295618' rel='author' title='author profile'> <span itemprop='name'>Brittney Lee</span> </a> </span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <meta content='http://britsketch.blogspot.com/2015/12/lovely-at-wonderground-gallery-part-1.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='http://britsketch.blogspot.com/2015/12/lovely-at-wonderground-gallery-part-1.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2015-12-03T20:19:00-05:00'>8:19 PM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/16168638/4106272151236016910' onclick=''> 153 comments: </a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-1579176694'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=16168638&postID=4106272151236016910&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> <div class='post-share-buttons goog-inline-block'> </div> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'> <span class='post-labels'> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-3'> <span class='post-location'> </span> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div></div> <div class="date-outer"> <h2 class='date-header'><span>Saturday, November 28, 2015</span></h2> <div class="date-posts"> <div class='post-outer'> <div class='post hentry uncustomized-post-template' itemprop='blogPost' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <meta content='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSoClDXmZPxmjdfgClFpEvWqvnIERzr-2WNdFOsBURA78bwsUm22AeiB5ZIuVLkPPky1hU3nS7NrYX8KipRIuQ2DPO-R8tN2UJLGHAZhY2yXlxfjGpfuObbb1O3aJ-jJtsIc2o/s1600/Calendar_Girl_01.jpg' itemprop='image_url'/> <meta content='16168638' itemprop='blogId'/> <meta content='2702795372409037634' itemprop='postId'/> <a name='2702795372409037634'></a> <h3 class='post-title entry-title' itemprop='name'> <a href='http://britsketch.blogspot.com/2015/11/2016-calendar-girls.html'>2016 Calendar Girls</a> </h3> <div class='post-header'> <div class='post-header-line-1'></div> </div> <div class='post-body entry-content' id='post-body-2702795372409037634' itemprop='description articleBody'> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSoClDXmZPxmjdfgClFpEvWqvnIERzr-2WNdFOsBURA78bwsUm22AeiB5ZIuVLkPPky1hU3nS7NrYX8KipRIuQ2DPO-R8tN2UJLGHAZhY2yXlxfjGpfuObbb1O3aJ-jJtsIc2o/s1600/Calendar_Girl_01.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSoClDXmZPxmjdfgClFpEvWqvnIERzr-2WNdFOsBURA78bwsUm22AeiB5ZIuVLkPPky1hU3nS7NrYX8KipRIuQ2DPO-R8tN2UJLGHAZhY2yXlxfjGpfuObbb1O3aJ-jJtsIc2o/s1600/Calendar_Girl_01.jpg" /></a></div> <br /> <span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Well hello there.</span><br /> <span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I'm briefly coming up for air after a few months that felt like one mad-dash to several simultaneous finish lines. CTN-X is officially over and did not disappoint (thank you to all who came out and said hello and gave me so many hugs!), and next weekend all of the <b>Lovely </b>girls are getting together at Wonderground Gallery in Downtown Disneyland for a special artwork release and book signing! I managed to just barely finish a couple of new pieces for that event - more to come on that shortly!</span><br /> <span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">And then lastly but not least(ly), we have <i>the girls.</i></span><br /> <br /> <span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"></span><br /> <span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"></span><br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoV6wnEGsKEioKjiV5KDVuHwefdJi_CGHSCnEnT7fpI3aZN-KEUdFuh6wVjDMCOE0DZevqagUtjGvPAE7fzTccTPRoWHO3rLWXVrA6rYAj-zJE2r6CWRiLqeMbRahIL8mg6XLE/s1600/insta_01.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoV6wnEGsKEioKjiV5KDVuHwefdJi_CGHSCnEnT7fpI3aZN-KEUdFuh6wVjDMCOE0DZevqagUtjGvPAE7fzTccTPRoWHO3rLWXVrA6rYAj-zJE2r6CWRiLqeMbRahIL8mg6XLE/s1600/insta_01.jpg" /></a></div> <span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I have to be honest - I've been completely overwhelmed with the response to these calendars. I am so grateful to everyone who has given me such wonderful feedback, and so I'm really trying to make sure that everyone who wants one can get one. We upped the <i>Calendar Girl</i> edition number this year to 500 (which is why I need to make this post brief - gotta get back to work!) and most of them will be going online in batches through the month of December. I will post a solid release schedule sometime next week, but I wanted to let everyone know that the first batch will go up in the <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/britsketch">Etsy shop</a> on <b>Monday, November 30th at 10am PST</b>.  </span><br /> <br /> <div style="line-height: 18px;"> <span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">To recap for anyone who is unfamiliar, the <i>Calendar Girls</i> were an experimental project that David and I started <a href="http://britsketch.blogspot.com/2013/12/cheers-to-new-year.html">two years ago</a>, and we got such great feedback that we decided to continue with them as a yearly project.  The concept is simple: A monthly desk calendar that is basically a paper doll. The stand is made from maple plywood in the form of a girl, and every new month is a page with a different outfit. While all of the pages are the same for each calendar, each stand/girl is hand stained, painted, and completely unique. The class of 2015 will contain 500 girls, all hand numbered, signed, and ready to go!</span><br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiv_Hht4AdXZWTQL5cXYmdI8S3wTf0HVpl6hDmmkqaevt2kkvtbATmMnFo4vcdeA72fCPWrgHwInV-jpiBGonR3FiNCUXzq5bzl2weSK_DoOjrvVgA3qjgQwe4WlvOIeqVWA5i/s1600/Wardrobe_blog_02.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiv_Hht4AdXZWTQL5cXYmdI8S3wTf0HVpl6hDmmkqaevt2kkvtbATmMnFo4vcdeA72fCPWrgHwInV-jpiBGonR3FiNCUXzq5bzl2weSK_DoOjrvVgA3qjgQwe4WlvOIeqVWA5i/s1600/Wardrobe_blog_02.jpg" /></a></div> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZmTQaYBtVtUJynerQhhhliNcAb_nnYoo9tUKi3CWyCc-0xV0CrrmXRFW9uTkop_mS52565lpwU2-jU7ZAiUUK_scfzy5_PjI1FOTZag5wLfcujTFDXi-n_Wd7r_buv3FUwwOp/s1600/Wardrobe_blog_01.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZmTQaYBtVtUJynerQhhhliNcAb_nnYoo9tUKi3CWyCc-0xV0CrrmXRFW9uTkop_mS52565lpwU2-jU7ZAiUUK_scfzy5_PjI1FOTZag5wLfcujTFDXi-n_Wd7r_buv3FUwwOp/s1600/Wardrobe_blog_01.jpg" /></a></div> <br /> <span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"></span><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 18px;">And for those of you who managed to snag one of the last two editions of the girls, we will be selling the new <i>2016 Wardrobe Refill Pack</i> in the shop!

The weather is still wonderful and everyone is gearing up for the excitement of a new school year. There is a simultaneous calm and energy in the air. For me, personally, all of the busy-ness of San Diego Comic Con and D23 are over, and there are still a few short months until the crazy that is The Holidays sets in. I was born during these dog days, got married on one of these dog days, and generally just feel best right about now.</span><br /> <span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I'm getting ready to head back to the East Coast to celebrate my little sister's wedding (!) and for a short but much-needed vacation with my guy. It seems like I'm always teasing things on my plate, but <i>goodness - </i>fully loaded, multiple spinning plates is what is happening over here.  Some examples include <a href="https://instagram.com/p/49iyt6FUJi/"><i>this</i></a> <i>,</i> <a href="https://instagram.com/p/6L72eVFUH9/"><i>this</i></a>, and maybe most notably <a href="https://instagram.com/p/6Yso7VFUBv/"><i>this</i></a> (daily sneak peeks happen on Instagram, folks!) so I promise I'm not leading you all on.</span><br /> <span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">So while I don't have much new work to share, I wanted to pass along  some of my late-summer joy. From now through Sunday enjoy 10% off of all items in my <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/britsketch?ref=hdr_shop_menu">etsy shop</a> including the new items from SDCC that have just been listed! Just use the code <b>SUMMERSALE</b> at checkout. Enjoy these last long days, friends! I will check back in soon!</span> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span
