HELP ME GROW!

Origami Bouquet

After much deliberation, my husband and I have decided that I will resign from my current job to care for our new infant son full time.  My day job for almost the past 2 years has been as an Elderly Protective Service worker, which means I investigated reports of elder abuse in the community and coordinated/provided intervention.  After 9 weeks of maternity leave, I have to say that although I miss my peers, I do not miss dealing with problems every single day.

Although I am thrilled & excited to be a stay-at-home mom (something I never thought I would be saying), I am also scared!  We can't afford it, plain and simple.  I still need to bring in a smallish income, and hope to focus on my business, both online and locally to make up the difference.

SO, help me grow my business!  Spread the word to brides-to-be you know seeking alternative bouquets, boutonnieres, and jewelry.  Tell you friends about my shop who are looking for unique gifts.  Book an in-home party to earn free stuff and discounts if you live locally, and don't forgot to pick something up just for you!

New items, take a peek...

Here's a few new items I posted today, take a peek....

How quick we grow....

My son was 8 weeks old yesterday.  He is already out of the newborn clothes and most of the 0-3 month items, wearing true 3 month clothing items.  Everyone says "they grow quick" and I am witnessing firsthand how true this is.  It is truly amazing how we grow from the littlest seeds in our mother's wombs into rapidly changing growing complex human beings!  My son's name is Tobias, which means "God is good."  As a mom watching my son grow, I really don't believe there could be a truer statement.  God is good!

Treasury Beauty

Here's a couple treasuries I made in the past few weeks.  I love the beauty of all the wonderful creative items found on ETSY all coming together to create a collection...

MIA...but still in action!

SO, I cannot believe I haven't posted anything since June 15th.  Time flies when you're having fun...being a mom!  While I haven't been blogging, I have been busy filling some custom orders and making some origami bouquets for a local gallery gift shop.  Here's some examples of what I've been up to:
