TBB: July! Ablutions and Birthdays.

The Beast Boutique The Beast Boutique

Happy July, and welcome back to TBB’s newsletter!

June was a fairly uneventful month, as far as shop work goes. We mostly spent it focused on personal pursuits, like continuing to declutter our house, but there were a few neat things that happened!

  1. Something that’s never happened before: we sold out of tiny cats within a week of listing the restock! I’ll be making more, but it’ll take a while.

  2. I had the chance to work on some possible sticker designs. I’ve been thinking about stickers since this time last year, but have only tried a few designs, so I’m excited to try it out again. I may run a poll for those later.

  3. There was a small cat. We found him wandering around outside of our house all alone. Obviously the only option was to bring him in, bathe, and feed him before surrendering him to the local monastery shelter!

Two photos side by side. First of a fluffy grey kitten with super crusty eyes being held in a blue striped shirt. Second, the same gray kitten mid-bath, looking like he's about to fall asleep.
He looked so much like baby Sigh!

And with that, we’re in July!

the shop name, the beast boutique, watermarks the image.

Regarding the MotM, there isn’t a very wide selection this month, but it’s the Ronald Raccoon model! I wanted to paint more of them, but haven’t had the time. Anyways, all the raccoons in the shop are 10% off until the end of July.

Next, we currently have NO shows planned for July. If you’d like to plan ahead, our next scheduled event is the Beer Festival at El Rancho de Las Golondrinas on August 8th and 9th. Tickets are on sale now if you’re interested in attending.

Flyer that reads "Santa Fe Beer Festival, August 8th & 9th | Noon-6pm, El Rancho de Las Golondrinas, The Southwest's Premier Living History Museum" The flyer pictures a nicely lit and composed cup of foamy beer in a clear cup.

(If you really, really want to plan ahead, tickets for our September show, the Las Golondrinas Ren Faire, are also available!)

Finally, happy birthday month to ✨ me ✨ (and at least five of our friends who all have birthdays this month!) As usual, I have no idea how I’ll celebrate, but it’ll most likely involve delicious food, haha! 😋

(To cap off the birthdays, a special shoutout for our friend Takku: she’s creating a beautiful manga with characters she’s had for over a decade! If you’d like to give her work some birthday attention, you can read the first two chapters at https://www.aceofcardsmanga.com/!)

Well, that’s all for this time around! Thanks for reading, and we’ll catch you next time!

- Chet (and Char, who says hello!)
