That's great, I'm really pleased for you.
I'm quite happy today, I got another corset order in this morning and I'm currently working on a steel boned one for my friend. This will be the first one I've made for someone else without doing a fitting, so I'm using it to test out how feasible it will be for me to make them for strangers just from measurements.

I've also sorted out a photographer for my cupcake website :D

Steel? How industrial
Also, are you dreaming of leaving your job to do two other jobs?

oh hell yes
I'm going to have an empire, just wait.

Dragon's Den is my thing. I'm going to be on Dragon's Den. I don't mean submitting an idea, I mean sitting in the chair and crushing people's dreams. And investing in stupid ones. I think if I decided to invest in someone I wouldn't be able to resist throwing the money into the air above them and then grabbing their hands so we could dance around together.

This might make me watch Dragon's Den again
I'd like to have an empire at some point, but seeing as I'm STILL WAITING for someone to get in touch about an interview, the dream is starting to dwindle slightly.

Have you made any cupcake inspired corsets or other way round?

My cupcake shop is going to be called Corsets & Cupcakes
and we're going to wear corsets if we get a shop. The logo is a cupcake with corset lacing on it :D

I've found some cupcake fabric as well so I'll be making one of them when I get paid again.

I'm all about the cross-marketing shiznit or whatever.

that's true
I was going to look into making medieval style ones, although I cannot work with velvet, it fucking moves!
( Kitty v1.0 desperately naive, Wed 25 Aug 2010, 11:10, Reply)

I once tried to make one from velvety stuff
but it was stretchy. Also I hate velvet :(
( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Wed 25 Aug 2010, 11:11, Reply)

Oh good, it's evil stuff.
If you want one, let me know, I'm doing them really cheap at the moment because I'm practicing on getting the fittings right.

do you have pictures of one's you've done
I don't really have a corsety character right now, but I could always find an opportunity to wear one
( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Wed 25 Aug 2010, 11:32, Reply)

Oh, that's great
I'm looking forward to trying those cupcakes. I'd love a corset too, but I wouldn't know when to wear it. I'm very happy for you.

I intend to make enough to wear every day
I want to make a plan black underbust one to wear over a shirt, I get annoying backache during the day because I'm sitting in front of a PC, it goes away when I wear a corset.

Cupcake website?!
Ooh, are you officially branching out now? Good luck, and well done :)

Thanks!
Yup, we're going to get a website and hopefully start taking orders for birthday parties and stuff so that we can put more figures and estimates into our business plan to get a bank loan to get a premises. That's the bit I can't wait for, I want to make it all pin-up girl and fifties themed, mostly so I can dress up during the day.
( Kitty v1.0 desperately naive, Wed 25 Aug 2010, 11:07, Reply)

Oh that'll be fantastic!
Best of luck, honey. I'll be incredible. Have you thought of a name?

Corsets & Cupcakes

In fact
Do you think your cupcake website will be up un running by the end of September? I'll probably be leaving Runcorn and it's costume to bring cakes the last day you're in a client's site. We could do with some of yours.

Yes, probably
I don't know, but I'll trust you on this.

I'd be happy to make some for you,
What flavours would you like?
( Kitty v1.0 desperately naive, Wed 25 Aug 2010, 11:08, Reply)

I don't know yet
And I don't know how many I'll need. When do you need to know? And which flavours do you have?
