So March Meet the Maker has been and gone, and we’ve only decided to do this now!
The March Meet the Maker hashtag was developed by designer Joanne Hawker in 2016 in efforts to encourage designers and content creators to create posts about themselves and their business based on a theme of prompts. The idea behind it was so that content creators or designers in small businesses could promote their business story in an authentic way.
We are all about authenticity and promotion all the same, so thought we’d make a fun post about our meet the maker story (even though we are a few months behind!)
To get more info on the 2021 #marchmeetthemaker prompts are, we’ve linked their main website for your convenience. Prompts | marchmeetthemaker
So in order to play a bit of catch up, we’ll answer the first 5 prompts in the 2021 challenge!

Currently on my desk is an avalanche of things that I somehow need all at the same time. But from left to right, camera box and lens, journal, a magazine holder full of labels and notepads, a pen holder, magnet merch inn testing, pictures of my pets, earphones, my ipad pro, my glasses.
