If you had a thousand dollars to spend soley on your shop, what would you do (marketing, materials, more hands)?

If I had a thousand dollars to spend soley on my shop, I would spend quite a bit on marketing, allow myself to take days off work when I don't have vacation time to allow myself to make more art, I might pay an assistant for some small tasks.

Design:
What inspires you?

Lately, I'm mostly inspired by my trips and times when I've taken photos. I am inspired by our goldfish and family as well.

What is your favorite color combo? (Attach pics if you like!)

I love all colors and there are so many color combinations that I can't just pick one. If I really had to pick one, I love primary colors. But, I don't want to leave other colors out. I can say that I'm not a big fan of purple, so color combinations with purple are my least favorite.


What is your favorite lifestyle/design magazine?

I don't really read magazines because I read a lot for school and work. I do listen to art and craft related podcasts. Those would include: Craftypod, Art Marketing Podcast among others.


What blogs do you visit regularly?

I tend to read what blogs I'm subscribed to in my "neighborhood" or subscriptions list. I get an update of who has updated their blog, so I read as people update.

Life:
What is your “normal Saturday” like?

Most Saturdays are supposed to be pretty chill. I sleep in if I can, have a nice lunch with my husband, see a movie is there is a good one out, do homework, go swimming, and do something arty. Saturdays are awesome.

Where is your favorite vacation spot?

Well, my last vacation was our honeymoon in Berlin and so far it is one of my favorites. I also like California, Florida, and Detroit.


What is your favorite food?

Seafood
