A lot of things are going through my head these days as I'm trying to mold this business that I started. Difficult decisions gets thrown at me all the time and I'm trying to listen to my heart to navigate through them. I recently had to cancel my planned show at Copenhagen Fashion Week because I didn't feel ready yet. It was a very hard decision to make and I cried as I sent the email, but something in me told me that I needed more time - time to step back and really think through what I want this business to be and carve out a business model that I feel correspond to my values and intentions.
Sometimes I feel that I'm in the wrong business - that I don't feel at home here and that I don't want to follow all the rules that comes with it. But I know that I'm here for the right reasons and I will continue to fight for a different approach - a slower approach - and I'm very excited about it!
I'm planning to start up a web shop soon with some limited edition styles and more exciting news to come - stay tuned!
Meanwhile I'm painting a lot these days as it clears my mind.. Check out my shop on Etsy: http://www.etsy.com/shop/MajaStabel or my Tumblr site: http://majastabel.tumblr.com/ to see more work. For any inqueries please mail me at maja@stabelstudio.com - I would be delighted to hear from you!
