Yesterday Dan and I decided to get out of the house and enjoy the relatively warm weather before we practiced the guitar together last evening. We just walked around one of the neighborhoods near where we live and visited a quirky used book store we like, but it was fun. Before walking out the door, I decided to take my camera along for the ride...and consequently you all too!

Okay, so here's the announcement part: I've decided to open a small Etsy shop. I'm still working on it, but should be posting items soon. I've been thinking about doing this for a long time now, and have just gotten up the gumption to just do it. I'll post a link in the next few days when everything is ready. I guess its official now:)
Thanks to everyone who sent well wishes to my family and especially my grandfather. I really appreciate everything that you all wrote.
Oh I just lost my comment...woops will start again.

I really do love your vintage dress and your photos with your guitar are so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the leap... can't wait to see what you'll have in your shop. xoxo
Oh wow, congrats on the Etsy store! I can't wait to buy something from you! Your man looks exactly how I imagined him, and that used book store is my dream. I know you went to grad school -- for what? You may have already addressed this, but I'd love to know. I went for Fiction Writing at the University of Iowa. I miss it every day, sigh. I'll be back there this summer teaching at a teen writing camp. Anyway, thanks for this little glimpse into your world, I loved it.
ReplyDeleteCute dress, I love how you tied the scarf around your waist! Haha those cats are cute. For a second I thought the record said "Hooray for Doris Day", haha. Oh yay for an etsy shop, you can't go wrong with that :)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your new shop! And you look so pretty in that blue!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear your grandfather is ill! I'm sending him all the best thoughts!
