"... something VERY cool has happened! I was found on Etsy by Ogilvy PR in NYC (they are HUGE), and asked to create a large pyramid bag as a shopping bag/gift bag prototype for a presentation they are making to Lipton Tea this coming Monday for a an idea they have for Lipton's Pyramid tea bags! SO freaking cool! I think she searched for pyramids on Etsy, and mine caught her eye! Of course, we settled on the price just yesterday (which is hefty) and they need it in-house Friday or Saturday, but this is an amazing opportunity! And they agreed to let me list it on Etsy and will pay via the site before I ship it. (and the money will help with the house down payment.) It's going to be more complicated than a regular pyramid pouch because they want it out of net or organza with stabilized sides and bottom. I have 2 days to figure it out! But what a fun challenge and amazing opportunity! If they like the idea, they may mass produce it.
