Happy 2025!

Hello everyone, I want to wish you all a Happy New Year!

The next collection is on its way! With the holiday season I was quite busy in the real world, and I only started the collection five days ago but it’s already done! I worked day and night to try to get this to you as close to our normal schedule as possible. I just finished dressing the models and am currently working on a scene for the shoot. It should be announced on Instagram either today or tomorrow.

I would was also thinking about ways to interact with you all more here on Patreon. This year I would like to start a Creators Journal, where I will share with you more about the creative process of each collection, as well as bits of my life in general.

I would also like to have more Polls where you all have a say in what the upcoming collections are. Some months I have a very clear idea of what I would like to do, and others I am a bit undecided. A huge part of me creates for myself, to fulfill my artistic craving, but I also know that I need to make content that is useful for all of you.

The next three collections are already planned, but I would love for you all to sound off in the comments of this post and let me know what kinds of themes you would like to see from the brand later this year! Be as creative as you want, and if you see that someone else has commented an idea that you like, go ahead and like their comment. If I see anything that inspires me hopefully I can find a way to make it happen!

Lastly, I would like to officially announce that in March of 2025 is Hensley Atelier’s Second Anniversary! I can’t give away too much now but just be ready for something big! 🤫

And I would also like to let you all know now that after the second anniversary I will be taking a month off. I have been consistently creating month after month for almost two full years, and I’m finally reaching a point where I feel I may burn out. So after the Second Anniversary I will take the month of April off from releasing any content. I have so many other personal projects that I would love to start but I just never have the time. I will be pausing all billing that month for any current patrons at the time. New patrons who join during that period will still be charged when the join. The collection following my break will be perfectly themed for The MET gala, so I may release it a bit early so that it’s out in time for you to use.

I’m so excited for what I know is going to be a HUGE year for us all! Don’t forget to let me know in the comments your dream collections ideas, and see you in a few days for the first collection of 2025! 🥳🎆
