I love new beginnings!

Dear Friends,

2007 has been absolutely amazing for my family, business, and me. God has blessed us with an abundance of laughter, love, friends, many tears of joy and a few tears of sadness, lots of spiritual and emotional growth, and oodles of miracles - both big and small.

Count your blessings and you’d be surprised how many more will come to you in 2008. We can easily get caught up fighting and fretting over what’s going “wrong” in our lives (or other people’s lives…) that sometimes we forget all the wonderful things that are “right” all around and within us. It’s incredible how by just changing your mindset, you can change your entire life.

This year I will be designing a collection of one of a kind handbags. I was blessed enough to acquire a TON of beautiful designer fabric samples a while back. Now I’m putting an end to my procrastinating and putting these gorgeous fabrics to good use! I have a few listed in my store right now and will be doing my very best to make at least 5 purses a week (give or take a few ^_~) until all my lovely fabric is used up… ambitious but hopefully worthwhile. Here are a couple new purses I just listed in my eBay store:

I also have lots of blank canvases that need painting and many ideas to fill them with. My artistic inspirations come in binges though so I’m happy with just painting when the muse strikes me. Of course, those will also be listed in my store throughout the year.

I’m looking forward to whatever new discoveries and adventures 2008 will bring and hope to share them with all of you! Every minute you are blessed to be alive is a chance at a new beginning. Don’t wait for that elusive “someday” to start living your potential. We all have dreams in our hearts that we need to let out and take some chances on! Little dreams and big dreams: each one deserves to shine at least once.

Happy New Year!

Love & Blessings,
+ann
