When will you open it? Will you give a studio update?
Hey everyone, I have received some questions about when the studio will reopen. Legally, I am not allowed to open yet, no group gatherings, and since I am licensed as a school (specialty traded) and retail. Unfortunately, due to the risks to my students and myself, I am not opening this month.
Before I temporarily closed my doors on March 15th, I had a Kids Night In, the amount of cleaning behind a group class of 4 kids, was never-ending, not that I minded I was cautious. I do not think I could realistically keep the studio sanitized and safe for everyone.
Think about how much people touch their faces without thinking about it, sneeze, blow their nose, etc. Those poor kids were continually washing their hands, and I was wiping everything down every few moments. It was tiring, but what we needed to do to keep everyone protected. That is my main goal.
Why no studio update?
SO that being said, due to my vendor’s license AND the fact that we have no vaccine yet… I can’t open my doors due to close contact.
I was advised by my insurance and by other businesses that I fall under the salon/tattoo/etc. category. Umbrella due to the close contact that happens during classes. Private lessons will be the first classes to come back as they are one on one, group classes though.. Not sure when I will legally be able to do that.
Even though I never have more than 6 students (10 for embroidery) at a time. I can’t do it and would be DEVASTATED if someone got sick in my studio.
Love and miss everyone so much. Trying to keep you safe, and I am so sorry.
Mask and studio update!
Since April 9th, I have made and distributed 1,000 masks! I am so proud of the studio for keeping our community safe.
As a heads-up, once the studio can reopen, I will need to institute a mask policy. I want to make sure everyone is safe until there is a vaccine for this; it’s always a possibility that it could come back, so I want to protect everyone who comes through my doors. I will also keep making and selling them as long as there is a need.
Short and sweet update, but wanted to keep you all in the loop.
<3 thank you

Hey Jess,
I totally understand. You are doing the right thing, even though it is the hard thing.
I hope your family is all healthy.
