Scrapbooking. I've been busy working on setting up my photo albums and getting ready for a going to be really fun crop this weekend - a first for me. I did finish two quick albums showcasing my youngest son's artwork from birth through fourth grade. Don't get too excited, the artwork was just placed in the albums. Little to no journaling and little to no embellishments. The purpose was to get the items from piles off my floor into albums. I also scanned approximately 150 school papers of his that I'm printing wallet sizes of and placing in 3-ring photo albums in baseball card holders. Again nothing too special added. Soon my large lingering piles will be gone and I will begin creating fun artsy pages with all of my photos. I'm hoping to begin that this weekend at the crop. FUN!
Working. Not exciting but none-the-less something that is taking up my time. It helps that I have fun while I work - thanks Patti!!!
Designing our home office. I have been given the green light to order cabinets for our home office. We are in here A LOT and I'm embarrassed to say we have piles of paper in here as well. Do you see a theme here? We all are sick and tired of it so it's time I address this issue. My dh is quite funny though because he thinks I can just go out and get some cabinets as if I were going to Target to pick up a new CD or something. This is where my designer thought process kicks in. So, I'm in the planning, design and product research phase of the project. This leads me to think about a design business for *moi*, see below:
Design business. Should I or shouldn't I? Since I'm not in a position to get or want clients now it would make sense to say no. I've decided I have a lot of behind the scenes work to do to refresh my design skills and learn the business side of design so I should focus on that first. I have begun this research and I'm finding out that more doors would open if I did have a business set-up surprisingly. I would be able to research trade only resources which is huge. The product and information available to the trade is so much more then to the average Joe. Fun!
Well that's it for now. Soon I will post some more interesting bits of information and some updated Oscar happenings. Until then, have a good day!
Cathy,
