{this photo is a super old photo I took, but I just found it again and re-edited it in a more updated Violet Bella style, I like it alot more now}
Today was another busy day.
Coffee.
Emails.
Packaging.
Post Office.
Drop off custom order to client.
Gunslingers.
then of to San Antonio again for groceries and more beads for my Ruche order, and a run through Goodwill.
TARGET=DANGER!!!
The new Liberty line takes my breathe away and I want it all! The china, the sheets, the dresses!!! So far I got a really cool box organizer with cute file folders to keep all of my sales records in. And today we got two cute cups to drink our coffee in. James asked me when we got home if we could have our coffee in the morning together in these cups! Then he told me he wanted to wake up every saturday morning and take our coffee and look for garage sales! you dont have to twist my arm! Um, can I say...I have an AWESOME husband???
He tried his first stencil today on an old wooden painters box and it didnt work. He got super discouraged, but I tried letting him know it was just the wrong paint for the wood. So hopefully he will try again. I was so amazed, I came out of the bathroom this morning to find him on the floor with the stencils and paint and his box out! I gave him an old wooden oil paint box for his guitar pedals and other miscellaneous stuff. He also got two really cool bags at the craft store to stencil, and two shirts! I cant wait to see what he does!
Goodwill proved super lame in the cool pillowcase department. Maybe we will find some great garage sales this weekend...Keeping my fingers crossed!
Thanks to everyone who is showing so much love on my latest creations. I have so many things I want to make and just not enough time or energy!
We just got a new self timer for my camera, so I will be starting on the spring lookbook once that gets here. I have pretty much not done any self portraiture since I got my Canon 50D, which has been a long time! Like over a year! I couldnt use my old timer on it, so I finally broke and got one! Im super excited.
There may be some super cool collaborations with some amazing photographers coming up!
I havent blogged lately like I would like to. I feel like I havent had anything interesting to say in the time I do have to blog, basically my days have just been filled with work.
I have way too many photos that need editing for clients, ahhh!
Ah well, it will all work out :) Im having a great time doing it all! It is super exciting for me and James to see this business actually growing and working for us. We can actually see a bit of a future now, where as before it seemed like an impossibility to build a home and have a child. It is feeling a bit more doable!
Anyway, Im just rambling now.
Big Love!!!
PEACE,
Laura
