thoughts : what am i doing?

well, no one said this was going to be easy. I keep feeling frazzled as i hop back and forth from one experimental project to the next. trying to find that perfect combination of keeping it simple and enjoying myself. i'm pleased to say about one month in and i've sold two items! one was a set of the winter wonderland cards to a fellow massart alum and stunning artist, rose ranauro. the next was at Debra's Flowers in Holliston.

and yet with all this good news i still feel frazzled. what next? what do i make to sell next? I'm still working on getting the plush all up and together, as well as more felted objects (Deb is interested in felt acorns to sell in her shop), which i love to make, but requires a bit of a time investment.

then i was talking to a good friend on the phone and i realized how much i love stamps. i enjoy making new ones, stamping old ones, embellishing them, and whenever the urge arises i can carve them in a snap.

so now i'm thinking about making wrapping paper/prints, and possibly patches and/or tote bags i feel like this is the next step, but who knows, maybe it's not. anyway empty and amazing is still young and growing, and i never shy away from a new adventure.
