Comming to a Monitor Near You: New Caps
Currently cleaning all the caps that I got from Novare Res where they have 25 roatating taps, 2 hand pump casks, and 300+ different bottles! Went on Thursday for a Maine Tweetup and was estatic when I got the bag'o'caps! It was like Christmas all over again, and about 98% of the caps were new ones to me. Am going to really need the help of Bottle Cap O-Rama for identification purposes.
Also in the ones being cleaner are a Lucky Cola cork-backed cap that I recieved from Lonnie with my Bottle Cap Press -- used to get those pesky dents from openers out. As well as a Three Stooges cap -- is it Larry, Curly or Moe? -- that my professor gave to me.
I suppose while the new caps dry I'll take miss KC for a walk. Look for new caps soon!

Fresh New Look
If you are a regular visitor to my blog then you may notice it looks a little, okay a lot, different. Went ahead and changed the look to be more consistant with my Etsy Shop.
You will notice on the side there is no longer a photostream from Flickr. The photostream has been replaced by links on the right side of the page, these bring you to a re-organized collection of images on Flickr you can choose to view them all at once, or in smaller sets broken up alphabetically.
On the business side of things I have set in place a few things to keep me organized.
Also made the executive decision (I can do that right?) to start scanning in all new caps, this way more caps can be captured at a time, they have a consistant look, and I don't have to deal with the reflection some caps give of the flash.
Let me know how you like the new look.

Busy Little Worker Bee
I've been a busy little worker bee the last few days.
Been making more and more coasters, set up my Etsy shop and even listed my first item. More are to come they are all just in various stages of finished-ness. Designed a banner for the shop and am thinking I will transform it into a header for this blog, as well as re-vamp the entire blog itself.
Also am done with one of my custom orders and 3/4 of the way through another one. Cleaning & sorting more caps as I go. Changed up my sorting process with more and more caps coming in, seems to be saving me time as well. When I have the space I am thinking of sorting the caps alphabetically. Currently they are sorted by popularity, one off caps go in their own bags in a box, 5 or less go in their own bags in a seperate box, and 6+ go in their own bags in a different box all together. That way I start by sorting through the most popular caps first, then some of the lesser popular ones, and finally on to the most unique.
I do have some more caps to add and maybe will get to those after class tonight.
Am also kicking around some logo design ideas for Kate's Caps.
And that's all on top of working full-time, going to school part-time, raising the cutest puppy ever, and keeping a household!
