I am so sorry I have neglected you, I have been so focused on sewing the columbine you may have seen on Flickr that I felt I had nothing of interest to write about.
However, I thought I would write about some ideas I have been playing with. For awhile now I have wanted my own website, I feel so scattered and fragmented, I am in so many different places, Folksy, Etsy, Blogger, Twitter, Facebook, Flickr, Madebyhandonline etc that I feel a little bit of a nomad. I want a home of my own.
I am a bit of a technophobe but I have found a host company called Mr Site and their starter package promises to be simple and easy to use.
I want to take my time with my little business, I am the tortoise not the hare in this story (let's hope the story end as well for this tortoise), I have to be a Mum to two small children as my full time job. With my website I want to take my time and come up with a basic, simple site that can be a good starting point.
After a few days of fretting over domain names, someone had already registered the obvious one for me, I have picked my address. I shan't tell you yet as the site is not active.
Next, my logo, what do I want at the top of my page? I love my Etsy banner, I love the vibrant colours, but my work has moved on a little since then. So I have been playing with ideas using my columbine. I need something simple but vibrant and that immediately give an idea of my work, so...
love the banner, looks great! It's really pretty and your fine stitch work looks awesome in close-up.Wish I could come up like something like that for my own work but I do so many different little things I don't know what to focus on.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much. That is the benefit of focusing on one area, although I might want to branch out in the future so I might have to change it then. :-)
