You guys, I am so excited to launch my new blog design and new blog design packages! I have moved over to Square Space from Wordpress (gasp!), and will now be offering Wordpress AND Square Space design. The main reason I moved was simplicity, but I'll talk more on why I moved later along with, possibly, some posts with tips for anyone else who is thinking about using Square Space. For now, I just ... Read the Post
New Blog Design + Design Biz Re-Launch!
New Studio & Office Space
Welcome to real life, people. Life behind the "my house is always tidy" blogging facade! I guess you could say my new office/studio space is a work in progress. But it's HUGE, isn't it? It's our converted two car garage that we were previously using as a family room. My guess is it's about 500 sq feet, which is almost the size of our first apartment. And it's all mine! I decided my upstairs office ... Read the Post

I've been telling everyone I closed Kintage merely because I didn't have the time to run both Kintage and do web design, so I had to choose ... Read the Post
Handmade Biz, I MISS YOU.
I spend my days on Kintage and design. Hours and hours on the computer, everyday, working away. These days, though, I've started to miss having a handmade business. Design is lovely because I can create digitally and there's no messy studio involved. Kintage is great because I can put my time into marketing and shopping, rather than trying to create product. But I really miss selling items I made ... Read the Post
Just go for it.
Blog Everyday in May Day 8: A piece of advice you have for others. Anything at all. I talked about my fear of failure in my last post. Another fear of mine is waking up one day, looking back on the last 50 miserable years of my life wondering what happened. My mom has always (still does on occasion) pushed me to get into the medical field whether it's as a nurse, a technician of some sort or ... Read the Post
