Around Here Lately

Hello, Internet!

It’s been pretty quiet around here the past couple months. I’ve been really trying to focus on being present and not be on social media/the Internet as much. I’m trying to really engulf myself in my reality instead of my virtual reality now a days. 🙂

I know it’s been quiet, but a lot has actually been going on behind the scenes at CO these past couple months. Our business is transitioning and I’m very happy about the direction we’re taking. Because of this, I’ve taken down our products in our online store so that I can restructure and really solidify our product line.

While we’re hard at work on these products, we’re going to do a sneak peek of our product line (new and old) at Unique LA’s Summer Show! You can get your tickets online or in person at the show. Come visit me at the CO booth and Charlie at the Ninong’s booth while you’re there! Ninong’s is going to be showcasing our pastries for the first time at this show, so happy and excited about that!

I’m so excited about this year’s product line! Though our complete line won’t be ready by Unique LA, we’re working slowly but sure to ensure that our products represent us well while maintaining functionality and quality. We have some fun things in the works, I can’t wait to share!

In the mean time – stay classy, Internet! Til next time!

A New Way of Thinking

I’ve always been so product/service driven. While that’s not necessarily a bad thing, what makes it so bad as that I relied on that product or service to carry me. What do I mean? Let me explain.

As I’ve shared with you already, I’ve never really had any faith in myself or any of my abilities. I always wished that I was like someone else or lived a life that they had. Because of that poisonous mentality, it led me to believe that I didn’t really have anything to offer. When it came to my business I was very insecure about my ability, and therefore, used the product to enhance it.

And that was my mistake. Why?

I’ve learned the hard way that products and services are never going to be the same all the time. As people change, products change. We adapt, we grow, and our things as well as what we find valuable change at the same rate. With this ever-growing change it has taught me that I should not just focus on a good quality product but also what I have that can make it better. What trait to I possess that will enhance this product to make it different from anything else? This balance is a new way of thinking for me. And while it seems so elementary now, it’s like a light bulb in my head.

So, off I go! Time to start working 🙂 Happy Thursday all!

Monday Funday and Tuesday Chooseday

Yesterday I enjoyed my day off by doing a little fun shopping at the screen printing supply store, buying a few things at the grocery store, designing, and watching some good old fashioned TV. All before I went and got my work out on at the gym for a couple hours. Having Monday off has its pro’s and con’s, but one thing I do enjoy is having time to myself to both relax and get things done. As you can see Baxter, Evie, and I were hard at work. ;P

 Today is an ease into the hectic work week. I go do grocery shopping for the bakery, read all my emails from the weekend, plan out my to-do list for the week, and finalize my calendar for the week. Then I cuddle up on the couch with my pups and rest before I go cray at the gym 🙂

I hope you’re all having a great week so far! I’ve been thinking about a lot of changes I want to make in this shop. So stay tuned for that!
