Blog planner

Hey!

A week ago I started writing in a "blog planner". It was basicaly a notebook with random covers. Today, as I was feeling crafty, I changed the notebook into a real blog planner. This is how it turned out!

What do you think? Do you keep a blog planner? :)

P.S. I made some kind of makeover to my blog. What do you think?

Dreamcatcher painting

Hey!

This is just a peek of a messy, messy painting made by me. I just love it! It was meant to be a dreamcatcher painting. I want to hang it in my room and keep it forever :)

So...if you want a fun afternoon project, a messy painting is the perfect choice!

Have a creative day!

5 resolutions for my blog

[source]

I think this quote is not only true, but also sweet. I mean, it's a more beautiful way to say 'Do your best'. I chose this quote because today I want to share 5 resolutions for this blog and my upcoming (I hope) shop.

• dream big about this blog
• make the dreams come true
• open a shop (I have one on Breslo.ro , but it's only for those who speak Romanian) on Etsy or BigCartel
• continue to write my ideas regarding the blog and shop on paper
• take my own pictures
  

Do you have a blog? If so, do you have any plans for it? I would love to read them!

Cat love

Today I worked hard with my mother at a project and cuddled with my little cat, Felix. I love him so much!

One day I even thought how much he has brightened my life. I don't consider Felix a pet. I think of him as a member of my family!

Do you have animals? If so, tell me a little about them :)

Canvas painting

As promised, I am back with my newest canvas painting. The colors look more like in the second picture.

Also, check out the Portfolio. I've updated it with a print for Valentine's Day!

Have a great day :)

Good morning, sunshine!

Good morning!

Today I woke up later than usual (maybe because those past days I've worked really hard at the computer and this exhausted me).

Just wanted to tell you that today I have big plans. I'll show you pictures these upcoming days. Also, this evening or maybe tomorrow morning I'll show you a picture of my newest canvas (which is finished).

Have a creative day,

Larisa

Blogging thoughts

Hi, there!

These days I worked like crazy on some projects (a DIY, a new print and, of course, making this blog work). I've recently discovered a great blog, called My girl Thursday, which has a page with blogging advice. I've seen all the videos there and begun thinking. What should I do in order to have a regular audience? I know I AM myself. I really am now, after a period of doubts. I would love to have a pretty, pretty blog, read by pretty, pretty people. Those past days I received some great comments and I am very thankful for that. Do you think this is the way a beginning should be? I would love to know the stories behind your blog! Here are 3 things I learnt since 2009 about blogging:

1. Be yourself. I know this is a very common one, but it is very important. I mean, if you are yourself, then you will stand out in the crowd. I am very emotive person and being myself wasn't that easy in the beginning. Let the people who read your blog know you. You can always write about:

• what you like
• your greatest achievements
• a trip
• anything that it's not too personal and is worth sharing

2. Be constant. Nobody follows a blog which writes posts at months distance. I know this is my case and I am really sorry for that, but now I made it my goal to be constant on this little piece of universe.

3. Be positive. People often read your blog in their coffe break and nobody wants to read your problems. It's okay to post from time to time some posts, if you feel like doing this, but don't make those problems the subject of your blog.

Thank you so much for reading this! If you have any piece of advice, I would be glad to read them :)
