It's March and I haven't been really nice...

I've been unbelievably detained. I got some gentle smacking down from husband; some reality check that needed to be done.

Anyway, I'm organizing some stuff and next week I'll open my online store. Yay! Actually, I'm still a bit shy about this. I've seen the projects that other gifted papercrafters and scrappers do, and I'm blown away every single time. I can only hope to hold my own. But there's one thing I know I can do better than most, my handwriting. There may be a future for me in this business.

There is a line of products I wish to develop, but that's still an idea as I don't really know how to go about it yet. I tried laying it down to paper but it's not quite as I see them in my head. So I still have to work that one out.

So that's it for now.

Ms. Ilyn is a licensed architect who decided that teaching arts and crafts, or making them, is way more fulfilling than dealing with contract documents, estimates and technical specifications. She taught Architectural Drafting and Painting to High School Students for five years, and Arts for Pre-K to Grade 3 Pupils for three years. Now, she's back to dealing with the nitty gritty of architecture, but the meditative aspect of papercrafting remains unchanged.
