Blog Neglect



So terribly sorry, readers. (Not completely sure who actually reads this anymore though.) Oooh, I've seen a few other bloggers do this! If you read my blog, please do write a comment about who you are/what you do/your favorite fruit/if you have a blog or a website or anything! I'd love to list you in my blogroll, and also like knowing who is out there!

Anyway. Lots of things have been happening.

It always seems that whenever I leave my shop for a couple of days, I get more sales than ever. Always! I could be sitting at home, twiddling my thumbs, thinking I'm in a slump, but the second I head over for a weekend in Boston, my inbox is flooded with message and I start to get stressed out about not being home to fill orders.

Not that I'm complaining! Just a funny way things work. I came to Boston this weekend with Ben, and while here, I went to the hippest of the hip hair salons in South Boston called Shag. Sigh. And guess what? I got BANGS. True blue bangs! I feel like a regular Rory Gilmore.





Now, for those who don't know, I have pretty wavy/thick/horrendously untamed hair, so the second I wash my newly straightened, shiny, primped locks, all will go to hell. I guess I can never wash my hair again.

That's all for now! Heading back home tonight, putting together orders, making some new drusy rings, you know, the use. (yoosh? youghe? how do you spell the abbreviated version of usual? I'll never know).

toodles!

  3. My name is Noah. I live in Washington DC, and I read your blog for recreational purposes.

    My favorite fruit is a banana because, when it comes down to it, you really just cannot beat the value.

  5. No worries! I love it when bloggers post bits about their everyday lives. Makes me realize my days don't all have to be one giant creative design adventure after another. Sometimes a lull is good for a recharge :) I think the bangs are working for you, I used to dye my hair for a pick me up until one of my kids teachers called to say that my daughter couldn't figure out what color crayon to use for my hair cuz it changed so often ;P Kimber J again

  6. My name is Amy and I live in NYC. My bills get paid because I daylight as a paralegal (moonlight as a big spender) and my favorite fruit is the mango because it tastes like a delicious swim-up bar. My website is www.ilikeyoulikeyou.com and I'm not sure if you're aware, but:

  8. I love your blog... I have it in my reader and read every post. My name is Kira Nichols and I'm a craft artist in Alabama. My favorite fruit is the avocado, though I'm not sure if it's a fruit or veg, or what. Regardless, it's my favorite! Keep up the good work... I love your amazing jewelry and am jealous of your skills on a regular basis :)

  10. Cuuute hair! Who cut it? I'm a big fan of Kenneth. I hope you made them give you some kind of expensive drink! Also, the Boston Patriots get their hairs cut there...

  11. I just found your blog via your etsy shop, which, btw, is awesome. I would wear every piece of jewelry you make. It's craft after my own heart, really :)

    I'm Nel and I am a psychology major, bookworm and promo-girl all in one. My favourite fruit is a raspberry, and it makes me a little cross when people go on and ON about how good strawberries are because, seriously? Raspberries are WAY better.

    Anyway.

    I have a blog called findingrabbit.blogspot.com. It's only a baby.

    PS. I <3 your hair!
