Hi guys! It's been a while, apologies for the long post but I thought I'd give a bit of an update as to why I've been MIA for over a month 😅 (ps there's a discount code at the end)
End of Feb my back pain got a lot worse than usual, and at the start of March I ended up in hospital. After an emergency MRI we discovered I have 2 bulging discs and 2 benign tumours on my spine. Luckily I haven't ended up needing surgery thus far and was just sent home with morphine and crutches(🥲). Due to all of this and the amount of pain I'm still in I've not been able to create any new work or print any existing work, I've also had to cancel all upcoming markets.
Being honest, my mental health has taken a real hit. I felt like my business was finally really picking up before all of this - orders were regular and I felt really positive. But because I haven't been able to post anything, my engagement and therefore my orders have dropped down to an all time low. It's really gutting as a small business owner to take such a dip, especially after things were really looking up.
Basically, if you've made it this far then thank you & sorry for the not so positive post!🤣 If you have the time, i'd really appreciate if you could engage with some of my previous posts or share my work with your friends 🫶🏻
For those wanting to place an order, I've added a 15% discount code on my website: BETHANDESIGNS15 Everything that's in stock is what I've already had printed and ready to go so any support is hugely appreciated 🩷🩷
Fingers crossed this will be my only crappy update and that the next time you hear from me I'll be back to fighting form 💁🏻♀️
Lots of love
Beth ###
