a fresh way to organize

I’ve been working on organization for the past year or two, off and on when I have the time. And I’ve been getting better and more proficient at decluttering and organizing with every pass.

We launched our line of MMS German Glass Glitter just before Lucketts and, in such a busy time, I didn’t get to announce it until after the fair. Now that I’ve had the chance to catch my breath and get back into a bit of a routine, I’m ready to start giving you some ideas for […]

skytop & shopping

A couple of weeks ago, Jeff declared that we needed a little getaway. I am a homebody and I love my work, so I don’t usually feel like I need to get away, but he’s almost always right with that sort of thing and it ends up being really great. He always picks the destination […]
