Todays Happenings

Today has successfully been busy. It started of so. I woke up to 5 packages that needed to be packed. (which is a wonderful thing). Then off to the post office, then quickly seeing my husband off to work. We did manage to eat another homeade pizza. (image below)

So I am going to attempt the 365 project. And since we are only four days into the year, and I have either taken a photo or edited one everyday, I am going to count those! So this image is actually #4. I will upload them into my flickr and create a folder just for the project. As soon as I get it up and running Ill post a link. Its something I really want to do, but doesnt seem a priority.

I just spent a few hours organizing all my sales and expense receipts for my upcoming taxes. I needed to get started on my 4th quarterly anyway. That feels super good to get started! Any of you who sell your goods...do you use a tax person or do you do it yourself? This will be my first year actually filing my business. A bit nervous!

Today I made a very happy sale! I sold my first wood block! She also bought this print and a calendar! Needless to say, I was an excited girl!
Our yummy pizza. I thought I had messed it up b/c the crust seemed really tough compared to my last batches, but it is the best Ive done so far, soooo yummy!!!
I got to see my friend Renea today. We chatted up crafty things in our local coffee shop for a bit. Check out this adorable scarf she made! Her work is so seamless and perfect, I love it!


I adore this photo she got of it! So cute Renea!

--------------------------

I need to go attend to my shop and post of few newbies, ciao for now!

and again, I just want to thank all my darlings on here for all of your wonderfully sweet comments, you guys are amazing!

PEACE,
Laura

  3. Congratulations on your awesome day!! 5 packages and another sale sounds fantastic to me! I was thinking about your wood blocks today and how awesome they are. Your homemade pizza looks yummy, do you have your own recipe that you use? My husband and I like to make our own calzones, but I've never attempted pizza crust, that would be fun!
    I haven't filed yet since I just opened up, but I know others who have small businesses, my sister uses someone and she said it saves her a headache.
    I look forward to your 365 project, I think I may join in on the fun and do one too!
    Another wonderful item from penny threads, I love her stuff!!

    Congratulations on the sales!!! I'm so excited to be using my calender:) I have it on the wall hanging from a tack, thanks to you!!!

    that pizza looks yummy...

    I look forward to seeing your 365 project. What is it exactly? Do you just take pictures every single day of the year?
    I always wanted to do something like that, but keep forgetting to start on the 1'st, one day I'll get it right:)

  10. i love that you are doing that 365 project. i am getting more and more inspired to do fun projects like that too. ones that maybe don't seem like a huge priority but are fun and having fun is important too!
    uggggh, taxes. i cannot imagine doing it myself. find someone to do it for you. there is too much to know. they'll help you figure out everything you can write off too. i actually just saw a friends facebook post today that said he had to redo 3 years of taxes today bc he tried to do them himself...his advice also was hire someone :)
    congrats on the sales...wooohoooo!
