I love my peeps! I've made some wonderful friends over the past couple years through various online endeavors. I've even gotten the opportunity to meet a few of them in person! Allow me to gush for just a second about my friend Marisa...
When I first started selling jewelry on Etsy, I joined a wonderful group made of mothers. While getting my feet wet, I asked for some constructive criticism from the other members and the lady from Elegant Snobbery volunteered to give me some pointers. It helped a bunch. So I paid a little bit more attention to her shop and her blog (in fact, I spent an entire afternoon reading every single one of her blog posts no I'm not a stalker, I swear). We figured out that we had quite a bit in common and became buddies. When we moved to TX and I realized that she was only 5 hours away, it wasn't long before I was scheduling my first visit! I'll be darned if it wasn't even better hanging out in person, besides the fact the our girls got along famously!
I think that her art is so wonderful! It's bright and cheery, whimsical and just plain CUTE! So when she said she wanted to do my logo, I very happily accepted! I knew it was going to be great, but I think she went way beyond!
I mean, seriously, have you ever... I've made up a "rough draft" of a business card and I think it looks wonderful (the jpg image I saved is bad, so I'm going to attempt photographing it or scanning it)! I'm going to start working on a menu and some stickers too!
On a little side note, I shipped some cupcakes to Marisa to test the shipping method I came up with and, well... unfortunately it was a mess, but she assured me they tasted good! So, I'm back to the drawing board on shipping. Fingers crossed that I've found another possibility.
