Hi Lovelees! 

TRACK YOUR ORDER HERE!!!

I have decided on something HUGE and I hope you can extend your understanding and grace with me, one last time. I have become completely overwhelmed at how long this timeline has stretched. I fully understand that more you are willing to wait than those who have cancelled, however for me, it's more about growth. I also understand that it seems like we all have had this year just zoom by, but I can't use that as an excuse. 

I've gone through so much this year that took time away from LemonLee Studios and Pattern Making, both good and bad, but I also want to stop letting that be my excuse as well. 

Although on my side, I've been working every chance I am capable to do so, it's still not enough and I still have hundreds of corsets to make. I also have a list of cancelations I am slowly processing refunds to, but it's moving slower than I'd like. 

What can't I do? 

• I cannot give everyone a full refund immediately.  My pieces were never meant to bring me huge profit. With cost of supplies being more than 50% of the price, free shipping being 1/4th of the price, and then me being silly having a flat rate of $12 for internationals, all funds have been depleted during my first "international crisis". I enjoy doing what I do, it has never been about the money. I've been able to fund all shipping myself each week, and depending on how many orders I have ready, determines how many refunds I can give out. 
• Stay off social media.  I miss my community of creators. I miss inspiring. I miss growing. I stay off social media because I personally think it's rude to post when I have so much other work to do. I've given up many gigs, collaborations and more with companies as big as amazon prime, to continue fulfilling orders and I fully understand that it's my own doing. I don't even post shop updates due to the overwhelming responses I revise both in anger and support. I'd like to though. 
• Start over millions of times. What I mean by that is that I cant continue to keep making plan after plan after plan. I want one last plan and to stick to it. I can't blame my undiagnosed ADHD on my lack of self discipline. I make moves based on how I feel in moments, or how I read an email from an individual, there's no foundation in that. 

What CAN I do?

• Ship out all pieces I have made that are here collecting dust. Due to multiple pieces, multi-orders, size updates, character updates and more, some corsets just SIT here. Every now and then I do this type of clear out, but with less orders than before, it should be my last time with my new plans. 
• Get back on social media! I'd like comments to be focused on hyping each other up and positivity! I want to focus on teaching how to pattern make and sew. The shop will be my side quest! I'd also like to post more working videos. This was my plan last October, but life got in the way and I stayed quiet and still have orders to fulfill. 
• Have the best last plan ever. At least, a plan about these orders. I'll still have lots of plans, but for this delay, we must move on. 

WHAT IS THIS "NEW" PLAN?

Please note that I know I can't do what I've done before, it must be something new, otherwise I'm a complete scum and deserve to never grow from this. 

• Ship out all corsets that are in the studio so I have a BLANK slate
• Make a SMALL batch realistic plan for the amount of corsets I have that DISPLAYS a timeline. Ex: November Week 3, Orders 2000-2010", and so on. This will likely go through next year as I have hundreds of corsets to make with the same small amount of time available. 
• Re-reachout to all those who chose to "Continue On"
• Offer cancelations
• With each cancelation, the next person will move up on the timeline
• Add all made corsets with no home to site to also fund refunds. Trust me I have ran MANY checks on these corsets, I cannot modify them to fit anyone else. 
• Post actively on social media

With all this being said, I have created the calendar of events and it will be posted EVERYWHERE. 

For those of you who are canceling, I fully understand and intend on getting you your refund as quickly as I can. It may take as long as it takes me to finish all these orders, but you WILL receive it. 

For those of you who continuously allow me to create for you, I cant even begin to express how thankful I am for you. It does not go unnoticed how long you have waited. All of the kind words I have read over the past few years is enough fuel for me to keep on going for the next 30 years. 

Thank you all again. 

You remain to be a part of the most patient, kindest and loyal group of humans on this planet and I will never take you for granted. 

I will always be sorry and hold myself accountable for how I conducted my business the past few years. I will continue to grow and learn with you in this next chapter. 

All the love, 

Liana
