Can you believe 2023 is over?! What a year!

December Highlights
December was such a great month for my business. I had sales every day and my blog traffic skyrocketed. It is so satisfying when years of work start paying off. š
I’m now selling notepads in my shop! I only have one design available at the moment, but a goal for 2024 is to add several notepads to my shop.


Every year I like to add a new product, and in 2023 it was stickers. Believe it or not, selling stickers actually turned out to be a great success.
Things I’m Loving

For Christmas, I was gifted this awesome vintage Wizard Of Oz salt and pepper shaker set! I’m obsessed. I love The Wizard of Oz and collect merchandise. Some day when we have a bigger house I hope to be able to properly display everything I have!
What’s Next

I’m making myself a brand new watercolor palette for the new year. I recently ordered the Daniel Smith dot cards to pick the most perfect colors for my style. I cannot wait for them to arrive!

I recently wrote a blog about my 2024 goals, and I really hope I can find the time to create lots of new art this upcoming year. During December I started collecting my thoughts that I have been stashing away on random pieces of paper or the back of my head and wrote a list of what I really want to create.
Abstract watercolor landscapes, more enchanted forest paintings, and floral art pieces are some of the collections I want to grow. I also want to do some more mixed media art and create some pieces with my favorite oil pastels.
Hello, 2024!
I’m so excited for this new year. It will mark year #2 of being 100% self-employed. Time to get to work! š
