Just doing my beading today

(Sketch for my Pink Ribbon line)

My Etsy project is slow going, because here in Arizona it's wedding season. But I'm sure when I have more time, I can get more things made / listed on Etsy. For now I'm enjoying my revival in fashion and I am actually excited about beading. I have come to enjoy it and enjoy many things about my career in general.

I love sometimes when I wake up excited to create something new and the feeling of knowing that the things I make are what invigorate my senses and bring me the most joy.

Sometimes I see some business owners stop doing the things that founded their business and what use to be their passion life is just now considered an income. If that ever happens to me, I might as well just stop being a fashion designer full-time and go back to working as an accounting manager crunching numbers till it makes me go insane.

To me, I have no life unless I have fashion. I am loveless without design. I am unhappy without creation. I have nothing if I don't have passion and I am dead if I'm not a fashion designer.
