BeauRegardless Alterations

I have been putting off making this post, but because so many of my amazing clients have helped with my kitty’s health costs over the year, I felt it only right.

Friday night after I got him from work, Ralph had a very bad asthma attack, and his breathing over the previous week was becoming more and more labored. Kayla and I took him to Dove Lewis downtown, and the vet was very quick to see him because of his condition.
Within the next 30 minutes, I was told that the doctor looked at his heart, and he was showing obvious signs of congestive heart failure and he would not be able to breathe properly without being in a ventilator constantly.

Ralph was laid to rest with dignity and we were given time to say our goodbye to him for as long as we wanted beforehand.

The grief of lying my first pet to rest was one of the most difficult things I have ever had to do, and I still expect him to pop up around the corner in the hallway to follow me into the bathroom.

Over this weekend I took time to grieve and I want to thank everyone that was so willing to reschedule in response to my need for time. I have had so many friends and clients reach out and offer to buy me groceries and make me food while I have not had the easiest time taking care of myself.

I want to take this time to make a mutual aid request, as the reality if the world, is that I needed to use all of the money I had in my business account to make sure that Ralph was able to be set free from his pain. I was not able to afford his ashes, but I was able to have him cremated with others and get his fur clippings and paw prints.

To those that have helped in the past with emergency vet visits for him, you are a huge reason that I was able to have as much time with him as I did. If you are able to donate to recover some of my studio costs one last time, I am eternally in your debt.

If you are able to donate here is my Venmo: -Ramos

Thank you again.

✨ROLL FOR INITIATIVE! ✨
Last week was the end of a big production project that I haven’t had the opportunity to do in a long time!

Before starting this business, I worked in garment production and manufacturing, where you sew the same garment but in big batches. Andrew had an idea to make up 7 cloaks for his D&D group at TPK and I was so excited to help him out.

I love the fabric we chose, and I adore the pendants that made! This was the first collaboration I have done with another local maker and she made the process so easy and I hope you all will check out her work in the future!

This was definitely one of my favorite projects this year and I will be sharing more of the process at a later date because I managed to somehow find time to film it!

Thank you so much for trusting me to make these for your party and thank you for your amazing craftsmanship and communication. 🤩

Hey everyone!
Just wanted to give some quick updates as wedding season draws to a close!
This is the time of year that is perfect for cleaning out the shop, making up custom designs and taking on smaller alteration projects that don’t take as long as a wedding dress. 🤣

Website updates!
- I made the 30 minute and 1 hour appointments available to the public!
- The resale shop is closed for now, I am going to be working in making some upcycled pieces to put up in the next few months.
- There is a donate section for those that want to support, but don’t have any projects to work on yet!
I also added a bunch of project photos to the services page, and SOME OF YOU are probably on there! 🤭

I am doing my best to create a better balance in the coming months and also make my way through the pieces some clients have been waiting on me to make.

Thank you for your patience, support and love as a community. You mean so much to me, and I hope to bring some fun stuff for Spoopy season!

Have an amazing week!
