Five on Friday /// March 21

ONE.

Two weeks out from my first craft show! I've been slowly piecing together some really awesome inventory that I'm pretty proud of. After it debuts at the show, I hope to do some product photography and get up some collections in the shop. Speaking of, did you see some of my sneak peek items?

TWO. 

On that note, did you see my Frozen-inspired birthday invitations?! I've been singing and dancing to the soundtrack all week long with my students at daycare. I couldn't help but think of them as I created this invitation and party package.

THREE. 

I'm closing in quickly on my 400th order...that's a good reason for a giveaway, right?

FOUR.

Not shop related, but guess where the husband and I will be celebrating our second anniversary? 

You got it! The Winsletts will be taking over Disney World once again this September. I'm really thinking we should just make this trip an annual family tradition. Am I right?!

FIVE.

Officially licensed for business again for 2014. In all honesty, I'm really proud of this business license. I was so terrified I was going to make a mess of it and I didn't! It's the small things ya'll.

Have a great weekend!

ONE

Still waiting to hear about the craft show. I don't know why, but I am so unbelievably anxious! It's an excited anxious though. I'm ready to get my name and brand out there in my community. 

TWO

Did you see the latest addition to our shop? We are closing in on wedding season which means it is bridal shower time. Just like any other good Southern belle, I love me some monograms! What better than a monogram bridal shower invitation.

I know I've been sharing this webinar like crazy, but just in case you missed it...GoDaddy Online Bookkeeping is hosting a free webinar specifically for Etsy sellers tackling their taxes. If you are an Etsy seller, you should definitely consider doing this. You can register here.

My lazy co-worker figured out how to crawl onto my desk to get to the window. I guess it's time to move her pillow up there...

FIVE

Real talk time ya'll. I had a really rough week. Please keep myself and my family in your prayers. These next few weeks will be very trying for us, but we serve a faithful and powerful God. Thank you in advance for the prayers!

ONE

I have officially sent in my application and subsequent paperwork for a craft show! I am equally excited and nervous. Doing a craft show is on my 2014 bucket list, so hopefully we will have shot at checking this off the list. I should find out if we're approved the first or second week of March. 

TWO

In light of the hope of a craft show, I will be creating some new products! I plan on listing items made for the craft shows in my Etsy shop as well. What can you expect to see? Thank you cards, encouragements cards, holiday cards, recipe cards, art prints, etc.

THREE

Did you check out PaperLark's first party printable package? I created it to compliment my popular construction birthday party invitation. I think Minnie Mouse just might have to be the next one to debut...

FOUR

Thank you Lord above for our beautiful weather this week! After suffering without electricity for 32 hours last week thanks to the ice storm, 70 degree weather was definitely welcomed at our house. I'm ready for spring and already thinking of crafty decor ideas.

FIVE

Thank God it's Friday! Can I get an amen?!

Have a great weekend!
