It’s typical that the new year should bring a new way of looking at life, at love, at work… pretty much everything. Although I don’t really make ‘resolutions’, I do try to use the start of a new year to better myself with challenges. This year, I’m going to really try and organize myself. That, my friends, is no easy task.
I’ve even gone to the extent of making a ‘weekly schedule’ of sorts, to try and whittle down that never-ending To-Do List. I have days set aside specifically for every facet of my life that I deem important (or should), like designing new things, knitting, sewing, socializing (yes, I’ve scheduled that in… don’t laugh!), and of course art. I mean hands-on art, not just sit-googly-eyed-in-front-of-the-Mac kind of art.
Oh, and I’ve opened up a new Etsy shop dedicated to graphic design! Right now I’m dealing specifically with printables (meaning buy the design, print at home or at a copy shop), but hopefully with time (and the elusive dollar) I will be able to offer printed goods as well. Visit me at paperwhitedesign.etsy.com!
My old shop still exists at crystalklassen.etsy.com, but I’ll be selling more fine art, photography, etc in that one. Hopefully, with my new ’schedule’, I’ll be posting some more goods in that shop as well! Phew. I just hope I can keep up.
A look back at New Years ‘09:
-road trip to Borden SK to the Model T Bar & Grille
-free yummy appies!
-masquerade!
-lots of fun, gonna make it an annual tradition methinks.
