3rd shop anniversary

January 31, 2014

It’s kind of crazy that I have been running my shop for 3 years now! I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for joining me on this journey. It’s been so fun to meet you and learn more about your story. I don’t typically pass up opportunities to talk about myself but more than that I love to hear people’s stories. I love to hear where you are from and watch the look on your face as you talk about your home towns or places you have lived or a special vacation. I love reading about through an etsy conversation or email about a significant life event happened in your life that you want to remember. I find that a conversation about where we are from or have lived is so easy and entertaining among strangers or even friends. It’s one of the reasons I love what I do so much!

I’ve got a few things planned with friends but I think tomorrow I’m going to take the day and just have fun! I’m going to paint my nails and do my hair and who knows what else.

Here’s how I celebrated year 1 and year 2. I’ll be back after the weekend to share what I do this year.

P.S. If you entered the giveaway I will be choosing the winners today! Stay tuned!

Days at alt summit

January 30, 2014

My days at ALT were filled to the brim! On the first day I was up around 7:40 so not too early but the second morning there was a PNW blogger meetup at 8 am! Ah! The first morning started with Garance Dore as our keynote and the second morning we eased into things with roundtables. Between all of the classes I would visit with the sponsors and have laughs with all of my new ALT friends. There were just so many great things going on it was hard to split my time wisely. I think overall I made some pretty good choices though.

^styling boards with Minted-this was fun I just wish all the prints belonged to me.
^I ran into a gal who was carrying about a Rouge and Whimsey original!
^Hanging around with the goodly blog ladies and we ran into Caitlin of Lady Hue.
^I met Megan and we had some great conversations-also she’s wearing the Utah pin I handed out with my business cards.
^Garance Dore
^Chatting with Cricut-their new cutting machine is kind of awesome! ^a pair of glasses cut out by the new machine and I’m being silly.
New friends! Mandy and Jacqueline.
