Changes Are Coming!

Hey ya'll! I'm so sorry I've been MIA lately - I've been a busy bee! Craft shows and holiday stationery have kept me on my toes the past couple of weeks! You'll see I've posted a piece from my holiday line! But, don't think I haven't had a few tricks up my sleeve. I have some major changes coming to my blog that I wanted to give you a sneak peek at! Below you will find a weekly schedule of material that will begin next week. As always, I'd love your feedback, comments, and questions if you have any!

MONDAY: Moody Monday - On Mondays I will feature a handmade from an online venue that will express how my week is starting out! If you know of any handmade items (or your own!) that would be a great "moody" feature, leave a link in the comments, and I just may use it if the mood strikes!

TUESDAY: Tuesday Treasures - Tuesdays I will feature either an Etsy treasury that I am currently loving, or items I've found on my own that will create my own treasury!

WEDNESDAY: Wacky Wednesday - I am most excited about my upcoming Wednesday features! Each Wednesday I will feature an interview from an artisan or entrepreneur. The fun part, however, is that these artisans and entrepreneurs will be answering unconventional questions, so hopefully you will learn something new, gain inspiration, and expand your creativity!

FRIDAY: Fridays will be all about fashion. I am obsessed with all things fashion, so I will be featuring some items I am eyeing, or gather your opinions on certain trends, topics, and the like. If it has to do with fashion, it will be here!

Like I said, I would love to hear your feedback! If you think I can expand on one of these ideas, or are simply not even interested in seeing them, please let me know! I am looking forward to bringing these fun features to my blog and really hope you will get involved and throw your thoughts and comments out there!

Thanks ya'll!

xoxo

Custom Order!

Whew, what a busy weekend I have had! And still truckin' along! On top of trying to gear up for the upcoming holiday season (it's right around the corner, ya'll!), I've had a few custom orders to work on as well. I absolutely love custom orders. What a great way to mesh the buyer's ideas and styles with my urge to craft!

One of the custom invitations I worked on over the past few days was something I was unsure about doing. The buyer had requested a very specific custom illustration. While I do not question my illustration abilities, sometimes it is hard to see eye to eye when someone wants something so exact! It turns out our personalities and ideas worked very well together, and we both had a lot of great input into the final invitation.

Without further ado, I'd like you to see the final invitation! I'd love your input, as well! I had such a great time working on this fun invitation, and, even better, built such a great working relationship with the buyer that I get to do three more fun invitations like this! Woo hoo!

I hope ya'll had a great weekend and have a fabulous Sunday afternoon and evening. Stay motivated this week, crafters!

XOXO
