Yes, I am alive. Before Christmas I was stuck in a rut.
I've been struggling for a bit trying to find my online identity.
I constantly compared myself to others.
I was content with where my blog and shop were but wasn't inspired everyday to blog and create.
It felt more like a chore then something that I loved doing.
This sadden me because I really love being creative, doing projects and writing my hopes and dreams.
So, I've decided it's time for change.
It's a new year and a new clean slate.
I'm not going to compare my blog & shop to others anymore.
I'm going to do this on my own terms.
If that means I blog once a week then I blog once a week.
If I blog 5 times a week then I blog 5 times a week!
I've been working on a little revamp for the blog.
Getting inspired by pictures, colours and textures.
I am trying to do it all on my own (with the help of friends and tutorials)
This means you will slowly see some changes being made on this blog.
A big one: a name change.
I'm unifying my shop and blog to the same name.
I love my shop and my jewelry line and want to bring that forward on my blog.
Here are some of the ideas I've been fiddling around with:
- whimsy, dreamy, vintage feel
- sketchbook look (font, doodles)
- colours: light rose, seafoam/mint, faint gold and gold glitter flecks
I hope you'll stick with my on this journey I'll be taking.
If you have any tips, hints, favourite tutorial sites for blog design I'd LOVE to hear from you!
Thanks for all your support blog friends :)
