Here is a peek at something I made at the beginning of the year that I like to call, my “BRAIN” - I have been happy using these (see all the pretty colors!) for the last 2 years, and will continue to use that for our family plans… however, I needed something that held everything I needed to run the shop & be friends with the internet etc… so I made my own little planner!



The front cover looks silly being that small, but I’ll fix it soon! On the inside, my nifty little “brain” has everything from blogs I love to stuff I need to make to custom project info! The hard part has been (and continues to be) transferring all the info from my huge stack of journals, used mostly randomly before “my brain” was put together! It’s a satisfying thing to sit and do with a cup of hot tea though. ^_^ Here’s the stack I have left to transfer, there’s a lot of info in this stack!!!

These are my favorite journals, ChocoCat, and forgive me, but the name of this next artist is escaping me…she’s absolutly amazing though!! (see if I’d had my “brain” back when I bought it, it would be in the ‘internet shopping’ section!) if anyone knows who the artist of this one is, please do let me know! Most of her girls feature a keyhole cut out in thier hands, which I think is so haunting and lovely…. and last but not least, my beautiful journal from If’n Books featuring the lovely artwork of Jen Corace on the cover!

I realize that ‘one of these things just doesn’t belong here’ but I had to include Choco! ^_^ I apologize for the bad pics, it’s been so rainy out I haven’t gotten any good ones! I have decided to make a separate binder for the custom projects though, so I picked up a 1/2″ binder at Target last night to move those over and give each client their own tab, I think it will be really nice to have them all in their own sections! I have 5 custom jobs going right now, you have seen one (the save the date cards in previous post) and I will post more about the other 4 when I get closer to the final designs! In a completly un-related subject, I bought a really cute little tea cup at a thrift shop the other day! It’s a sort of melon color with ‘tea’ on the side in white! I love it! Perfect for the rainy wether we have been having! I like the size too, normally, I like the giant cups to drink from, (completely un-lady like) but, I dunno, I really like this sweet little cup, it’s perfect…… just as it is…
