OMG OMG OMG!!!!!!!!!! The time has arrived……….we have a new studio space for Purple Nickel!!! I know right?! It still hasn’t set in and we are constantly muttering ‘I CAN’T BELIEVE THIS SPACE IS OURS!‘. And in unison. Ok maybe not at exactly the same time but it does get brought up at least 10 times while were in the space. We officially got the keys last Tuesday. HOLY CRAP! We have always kept our eyes peeled for a RAD space that would support our creative juices and when we stumbled across this one it was way too good to pass up. We almost didn’t even know of its existence. As we were leaving from checking out 3 other spaces in the same building, it was brought up that a certain tenant had 2 SPACES up at the end of the month. So we immediatly said ‘where’s the other one?‘. The landlord casually replied ‘oh on the second floor…yeah it has exposed red brick walls, natural window light and hard wood floors!‘. ‘WHAAAAAAT?!‘. Unfortunately that day we couldn’t see inside the space and could only get a glipse through some casement windows that lead up the stairs. For the next two weeks we went CRAZY!!! Yes we had to wait that long to view it after the current tentant moved out. Our stomachs were tied in knots. I think mine more than Eric’s. Every second we debated ‘should we do it…should we not do it?‘ But the one thing we’ve realized over the years is WE MUST TAKE RISKS! And this is a big one…
And a BIG shout out to Erin & Don Durband for the awesome sweet ass hook up!!! We could have never done this without you guys and we LOVE YOU BUNCHES!
We can’t wait to show you our journey…
