I’m so bummed that it’s nearing the end of the day…

and my shop still isn’t ready to go. The first half of my day consisted of several long telephone conversations with internet technicians who were more than likely in another State, and I may have even shed a tear or two at the amount of frustration that had been building during said conversations. So although I’ve been trying my very darndest, the shop still won’t be open for another day. So I must thank you for your patience and understanding.

But! The lovely Laura of PaperTaxi was kind enough to design the above banner for my Etsy shop, and I thought I’d at least share that {and an outtake from my product photoshoot} with you today. Isn’t her work lovely? Most of the men’s listings for my shop are complete and ready to go live as soon as the ladies’ stuff is listed. So, with any luck I’ll be able to finally open my shop doors tomorrow.

Thank you everyone for being so patient!

I feel like I’m missing you lately, blog.

My days are packed with sewing, planning, writing, working, and trying to keep up with a normal life. I’ve been selling shop items, packing them up, and shipping them off into the world, and with all of that I haven’t been keeping up with writing as much as I am used to. I promise that things will get themselves sorted out within the next couple of months {it’s good stuff that’s going on, don’t worry!}, and that I’ll keep up as best as I can until then.

But, if you’re hoping for some little snip-its of my reality, you’re always welcome to follow me on Instagram. I have been trying to take more photos recently so I can capture the little moments and the details that otherwise may be looked past and forgotten. You can search for me as @juliastrawberry and get updates on my life through there. I hope your week has started off fantastically, and that I get to hear from you all soon!

Happy Monday!

Hello, everyone!

Thanks to a few special people on Facebook (you have to have at least 25 people like you before you can choose your url), I was able to claim my own domain name, and I now have an easily accessible fan page! Head on over and “Like” me if you… like… me! Ha!

I’ll be posting updates there (and sometimes here, of course) for things that are going into my shop. Usually I put pictures up on facebook as soon as the listing hits Etsy, so that’s a great place to keep tabs if you are interested in my shop. I know that the shop can be pretty girly, though, so some of you may just be reading the blog for other topics of interest. In that case, I certainly understand if you don’t really need to keep up on my shop. I’d still love your support if you’re into it!

Fun news: Tomorrow my parents will be bringing my desk up from New Hampshire! That means that this week I’ll be adding the finishing touches to my “office” (it’s in quotations because it’s really just some furniture and decor that I put along one wall in our bedroom…it’s far from being a real office)! Photos to follow as soon as I’m done!

And, I was featured in another treasury which you can see by clicking this link. Then, miraculously, I sold the item! And, this morning I sold another listing! That’s two sales in one weekend — an excellent start and a good sign.

The third exciting thing for me this week is that on Wednesday my sewing classes start! My honey is so smart, and got me some machine lessons for Valentine’s Day. So thoughtful! As the start date approaches I’m becoming more and more nervous. It’s been years since I had a first-day-of-school, and four more years on top of that since it was in a new place with new people! Yikes!

Hope you’re all doing quite well! Thanks for being so cool :)

xx. Julia
