Michele Banks

Look, I hate to be the one to remind you of this, but you’ve been slacking off on your New Year’s Resolutions.

I don’t care that you went to pilates for 3 weeks and then buried your mat in the back of your closet. I don’t care that you vowed to scrapbook your way to the Promised Land and then buried all of those baby photos under a mound of old magazines on your desk. I don’t even care about your vow to quit smoking, build a shrine to John Stamos, or take up meditation.

The only thing I care about is your vow not to procrastinate. You have managed to procrastinate on working on your vow not to procrastinate anymore, and while I respect your consistency, it’s time for me to step in and say “enough is enough.”

You don’t want me to be disappointed in you, do you?

Of course you don’t.

This, my friends, is your lucky day.

For you see, Michele Banks has at long last created an Etsy store. You know you’re going to buy a piece of art by Michele’s at some point. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, maybe not next week, but someday, someday, you will buy her work.

Why wait?

Get over there and buy yourself some genuine handmade one-of-a-kind art. You know you want to. And think how good you’ll feel after you check “buy Michele Banks work” off that big to-do list you’ve been toting around.

Everybody wins.

The 3D collages in particular make great gifts – those coffee cup collages are perfect housewarming gifts. Everyone should have one in their kitchen. What are you waiting for? Why are you still here? Clicky-clicky.

(Even if you don’t buy anything, you could give her feedback on her store. Michele’s a fixture on the local art market scene but Etsy is new terrain for her and she’d appreciate any ideas you have for her).
