Technically not, but very close. A lot has changed in the past year and a lot of things have stayed the same.
I started this blog last November as an outlet to sell our handmade / homemade accessories. Soon afterward, I decided to open a shop on Etsy and haven't touched this page since. As a newbie blogger, I was so proud of the background I chose, the way the colors complimented each other and the fact that I was actually able to add pictures of my items. Looking at those pictures now -- I cringe.
I've noticed this change in the items I craft as well. Starting out, I was full of enthusiasm, but very little know how or supplies. While I have always maintained that my items be as well made and professional as possible, some of the first items would not make the grade now.
I guess this should be true in all areas of our lives --this growth. If not, we become stagnant and irrelevant and if so, what is our personal influence? We have a need to "better" ourselves, to "become" more today than we were yesterday.
I am still a newbie blogger. I can not promise profound thoughts or daily posts. But I will post thoughts, ideas, new items, etc and with some luck, they will be at least mildly entertaining.
I hope it will be a testimony of growth. Growth as a crafter and business owner, but as a person as well. Another year will tell.
