The Story of Belle the Cat, the Company...
Belle the Cats main focus is the organization and marketing of the written works of Director and founder Sarah Bartash.
Belle the Cat was created in 2002 and resided in Lakewood, Ohio through February 23, 2006.
Belle the Cat relocated to Portland, Oregon in 2006.
The Story of the Office:
* Remodle started: January 2003
* Inspiration: My "bags of potential" -
I divided many of my most promising collections of research and partially finished works into bags and toted them around to coffeshops, work etc. I realized that I had to get them into some semblance other than plastic grocery bags so set about planning a filing system which led to the need for a good working space.
* Plans: Ikea desk or build one - fit into corner of the room. Buy hanging file racks. Build cabinets for wall and get rid of wobbly shelf. I want it to look somewhat like this.
* Before: Size: 7'x7', Chief Wahoo trim, white walls, long wobbly shelf along one wall, tiny but densely heavy desk, two old bent up file cabinets.
* Middle stage: Painted the wall melon, repositioned furniture, painted file cabinet with chalkboard paint, new chair.
* Office, June 2004, Lakewood, Ohio:Check out this photo of what I finally ended up with! Total amount includes $100 for desk, $100 for file cabinet. $9 new lamp.
Computer upgrade: HP Laptop from Ebay for $750. External floppy disk drive. Scanner from Ebay for $20.
* May, 2006 - Temporary Milwaukie, OR Office
* August, 2006 - Portland, Oregon Office
And so it begins, all over again....
