Before & After (What a Difference Photography Makes)

I finally got a charger for my camera, and LOOK at the difference!! (I also got creative with the props, haha).

What do you think? Vast improvement, eh? Ok, now I know the sales will just start rolling in... (Hey, I can dream!)

In other news, I have a super cool new storage thingy! We are doing some rearranging in the office and I scored this great wooden shelving unit that they were getting rid of. One of my co-workers wanted it too but graciously let me have it for the time being (she still needs to figure out where to put it in her own craft room). It is SO GREAT to have all my stuff off the floor & somewhat organized!! Yay! (Also you can see some of my artwork on the wall for a few of my recent projects).



So, any exciting plans for St. Patrick's Day? I was born in Ireland so I have a soft spot for this holiday... Plus my husband makes some mean Corned Beef & homemade Irish Cream! Yum yum! We are having Jamie's family over for an Irish feast & to enjoy each other's company. This will be our first "party" in the new house! We are actually going to clean this weekend... ugh. I can't believe how far gone I am. I can tolerate mess like never before, haha.

  1. Yes definitely improvement on your photographs! Wonder if you might talk Ryan V into taking some shots of your stationary at work- wonder what a REAL camera would do for your products??? Just as an experment to see if you ever would want to get a nice camera? Love the storage unit and I can see why you desperately needed one! Dad and I are gonna be heading to Vegas on Sunday so first Paddy's Day without Irish fare..but I'm still gonna wear green:)

    1. Yeah, I'd be interested in investing in a real professional camera some day! I know it would make a difference... just the difference a tablet camera vs a nicer digital camera makes is incredible.

  2. I think your pictures look great--you staged your product really well. I forgot you were born in Ireland--that's fun--have a great St Patrick's day! I will probably just drink a green beer (like I do every year) :)

    1. Thank you! My St. Paddy's was... interesting. And memorable. I did get to eat corned beef, which was the highlight of my day, haha. I hope you enjoyed your green beer!
