Happy New Year

Wow 2011…sometimes I can’t believe it…I remember growing up in the 70’s and 80’s thinking the 2000’s were so far away….I assumed in the 2000’s we would have cars that flew around and homes in the sky like in the Jetson’s…remember that cartoon? Ahh.. the imagination of a child. 🙂

So Happy New Year! I have a great feeling about this year….2010 was pretty rough….and I believe things run in circles….last year was the down turn but this year we are all going to be on the upswing! YAY! 🙂 I am not sure how many people read this blog, I just started it a couple months ago and have really been bad about posting (that will change this year), but…whoever reads this let me ask something of you. THINK POSITIVE. 🙂 Really….and truly…try to be optomistic about things….try to see things in a positive light and if you are going through a bad spell hold  and hang on until your out of it. The more we collectively as a society and a planet think positive, the more positive change we will see around us. If we point fingers, place blame, complain, and drown ourselves in our sorrows…we are only going to create more of the same…and in doing that we are negativily effecting others too. So let’s make this years resolution not about weight loss….or saving money….or quitting bad habits…lets instead focus on living our lives in a positive way….making a difference in our personal relationships….sharing love and kindness with others INCLUDING ourselves!! In doing that….all the other things like weight loss, saving money, and quitting bad habits will happen naturally. 🙂

I know I know this is supposed to be a “professional” blog….but hey…I am an artisan…a creative being….and sometimes….well I get passionate!! You know how artists are….a little quirky!! 🙂

I am super excited about this year. Already the orders are rolling in and bridal season is getting kicked off to a great start! The Papery Nook introduced it’s new Ring Bearer Birds Nest and they have been a big hit! It is amazing how something so natural and simple can be so beautiful and perfect for your wedding. I get so excited creating such fun and unique items for my brides. I am always on the look out for new and fun ideas to add to my product line. If you have any creative ideas or suggestions please leave me a comment or contact me on Etsy or Facebook!

Happy New Year Everyone!!
