The 26th Friday Four
The 26th Friday Four of 2024! We are halfway through the year! It’s going by fast, and this series is simply the weekly highlights from behind the scenes at Tura Lura Co. Let’s get into it!
I am pumped for our creative class tonight in West Branch! Pour + Restore is Candle Pour Bar plus a gentle yoga class in the national park down the block from the studio. And… today started out super rainy so we will see if the grass in the park dries by 7pm. I am not too worried, our backup plan is just as restorative. I love having coloring sheets and friendship bracelet materials on hand to craft while we talk, and we have a little room in studio to move and stretch. So if you are signed up, I can’t wait to see you! And, hopefully the next Pour + Restore in July gets a sunny day so we can do yoga in the park!
The July schedule is posted and hosts more creative classes to sign up for including Pour + Restore, Candle Pour Bar, and Dried Floral Bar! The open walk in day for the month in West Branch is Wednesday, July 10 from 4-7pm. If you plan things a little further out, keep your eye open for the email next Friday, as it’ll have the August schedule!
As a small business, Tura Lura is constantly adapting. This little business started out as an artist grant, turned into a handmade company, and has evolved into a studio for handcrafted creativity. This journey has unlocked my own interests, I’ve really begun to explore and learn things I was always curious about. While welding is still on my bucket list, I don’t see that as a class I’ll be offering anytime soon. But Perfume Bar, a class to design and make your own fragrance? I am adding it to the lineup. Think Candle Pour Bar but with personal perfumes and body mists. I need your help though, what questions do you have about a Perfume Bar experience? Thanks for responding and sending me your questions!
During the last two years, I have also been constantly adapting. Last week presented a new challenge in business, with a delightful result. My email platform glitched, and the 25th Friday Four posted but didn’t email. A few years ago, my need for perfection would have driven me a bit bonkers in this situation. But the last few years of learning with Tura Lura Co. has given me a bit more moxy. I simply looked into the issue, investigated potential solutions, made a decision to let it be and moved on. And the next day I was like… oh my gosh, who am I? I don’t have a stomach ache, this isn’t bothering me. While this sounds small, the idea that we can keep learning and growing as adults is pretty darn cool. Do you have any examples of how you’ve grown lately? I’d love to hear more.
Enjoy the weekend + happy Friday!
