The has begun and I spent all weekend making miniature figurines with needle tools and sparkling dust. This is show week and I had to start out start by making a post. Somehow I managed to fit in a morning out for breakfast with all those celebrating Mother’s Day early. We had to wait longerContinue reading “Happy Monday”

Showtime!
The late nights this week have me droppy-eyed. The sacrifice of sleep for my art and my writing may mean that a few days off are in order. Yesterday I was too busy creating more miniatures until 2:00 in the morning and I missed my usual post time. So, if you take a look atContinue reading “Showtime!”
New Goals
The last day of the month is here and it’s going out with stormy weather. I’m also gearing up and trying to narrow down my focus as I get ready to participate in Geek Craft Expo near the end of the month. I don’t know how I’m going to balance my writing with getting aContinue reading “New Goals”
Day 4 of Visual Story Telling
The last day of our visual story telling is here the day before my next event with my miniatures. I’m excited because my eyes will be filled with the creations of other artists and crafters. Being able to show and sell my handmade minis is also a benefit. While I’m at my event this weekend,Continue reading “Day 4 of Visual Story Telling”
Day 2 of Visual Story Telling
Welcome to the beginning of a new month and a new kind of prompt from yesterday. We’re doing all visuals for the rest of the week to help capture the imagery stuck in your head but not seen by your audience in your story. This week is a way of thinking out loud or onContinue reading “Day 2 of Visual Story Telling”
Quiet Friday
The roads went quiet yesterday morning and I spent it watching life feed road cameras. The roads were covered and the few cars I did see moving along I hoped were emergency workers or those who didn’t need to make a coffee run. Many places did close or had call-ins. Skeleton crews were running theContinue reading “Quiet Friday”
After the Show
The show is over and I spent all day yesterday relaxing and doing nothing. Long stretches of napping did wonders for my body after a few weeks of restless sleeping. The fact that I needed that much sleep tells me that I need to give myself more time to rest during busy weeks. Thinking aboutContinue reading “After the Show”
Winter Extremes
Last night, I sat shivering under the covers and writing my post thinking about all those experiencing the same chilling weather all over the country. I can’t imagine what those down south think about the kind of winters events that are normal to us up here. I saw cats on ice all over the placeContinue reading “Winter Extremes”
Researching Business Tools
After being under the weather for most of last week, I had to use the weekend to focus on my goals for this year. My husband and I organized, threw out some old clutter, and put up a calendar to keep track of our business this year. I binged on a variety of videos fromContinue reading “Researching Business Tools”
Milestones
Thursday is here and I’m taking today to recognize and celebrate that my husband and I reached our goal this past year for participating in craft and art shows around Minnesota. Recently, we sat down at our favorite cafe and planned for this year to reach an even higher goal for our handmades. Inside myContinue reading “Milestones”
Happy New Year!
The ringing of the New Year bells may be ringing a little too loudly for those celebrated the coming a new beginning with too much enthusiasm. Another year to a writer means new books to read, more writing, and creating a new list of to-do’s. Maybe this will be the year that you sign thatContinue reading “Happy New Year!”
Seller Frustration
Last night my life turned into a TikTok because of an update on Etsy. All that was required was an update to my seller information and an update to my bank account. I thought this was only going to take 15 minutes but I was locked out of my frozen account. Nothing was going inContinue reading “Seller Frustration”
