Dreams Don't Work...

Picture via here

I absolutely adore that quote. "Dreams don't work unless you do". It's so very true. You can dream all day but they do nothing if you don't work towards fulfilling these dreams!

I've been dreaming often about becoming self employed. I have a million ideas but one idea is stuck in my head and I daydream about it. So, I wrote out my plan of action. I have my details spilled with a six month goal, a one year goal, and five year goal. I have everything detailed out and I am quite proud of myself! How to market my product, the venues I wish to sell at, the product line, the future expansion of the product line, etc. I finally feel like the dream will become a reality by this summer. I am a planner. A die hard planner. So, keep your eyes open! I have concrete dates! Ha! That means I have to, right?

When I returned to blogging, I was posting "Random Wednesday Finds" of amazing items, blogs and all around interesting stuff (oh and hilarious stuff, too) I find online and I will return this to my editorial calendar! I love finding artisan, unique and handmade items and sharing them.

Speaking of dreams, a friend of mine started her business. She's just getting listed on Etsy and her official website will be launched. I am really excited for her!

Go ahead and check out her products on Etsy.

Ooohhhh Whipped body butter.

Another shop I think you should visit is my blogger friend, Jamie of ChatterBlossom. Her Etsy shop is a treasure trove of vintage goodies. Oh and her blog? It's aaaahhhhhhmazing. Seriously. AMAZING. I drool over her photos of her modeling gorgeous gorgeous vintage fashions, jewelry and her makeup and hair? I die. Seriously vintage heaven!
