the juggling act

hmm - how to do it all: the kids home for the summer, training a new puppy, trying to keep the house and laundry under control, listing items on etsy, filling orders, and of course - finding time to create and make the product. let's not forget time to blog as well. If only there were another 4 or 5 hours to each day, sigh. :-)


I did have time a few days ago to come up with a new birthday plate design. It also comes in pinks or blue. But I thought the circus colors were appropriate to list here - since life is a bit of a 3ring circus these days, lol!

So Many Ideas, So Little Time to Paint

My mind has been racing lately with new ideas for my new shop. I am really excited about these wipe off tiles that I've been creating. I think they'll make fun gifts, and serve as a special reminder of a special event. Here's my latest - the Happy Birthday Signature Tile.




The best part is you can either use a permanent marker for the signatures OR you can use a dry erase marker. Then take a photo of the signatures or birthday message for child's photo album or scrapbook. Then wipe off tile and use for another member of the family, or use it again the following year!!!

I started thinking about all the different designs I could put on these, now if I can only find the time to paint them! Sigh, maybe after taking care of the puppy, kids, housework, errands, ...... maybe I'll find some time later today. :-)
