I have several confessions I need to make, both happy and not happy.
I'm designing a website right now (happy).
I'm re-designing my blog (also happy).
I'm a perfectionist and a procrastinator (both not happy).
Now, I have some other things to tell you :)
I've been working + thinking + brainstorming these new designs/changes for a while now. Like, 8 months worth of a while. But, because I'm both a perfectionist and procrastinator I have tweaked and rethought and second guessed and thought again and put it off for waaaaay to long. And it's getting kind of ridiculous. So I'm giving myself a deadline and letting you all know about it ;) In the hopes that it will help cure my fear-of-failure-perfectionism and stop me from procrastinating anymore.
Soooo, the new blog that I'm kind of reaalllly excited about is going to be here: Monday, April 11th
And the website? Will be going live by hook or by crook: Friday, April 22th
I have one last confession to make. I'm kind of freaked out at the thought of designing my own website, and putting it out there where the whole world can see it. So be kind to me, because I really have no clue what i'm doing, but I've heard it said that "If you're not embarrassed by the first version of your product then you've launched to late." -Jeff Bezos
But in the meantime, to get my mind off how scary it is, I thought it'd be fun to have a contest. And it's a two part contest. I'll write about part one today, and then tomorrow you'll get part two ;)
In all my redesigning and rethinking of my brand and what I want it to look like, I've added a new color to my "brand" and y'all get to guess what it is!
I've recently fallen in love again with this "new" mystery color, and I've found it popping up everywhere in my life. My clothes, my accessories, everywhere I look I want to buy something in this color.
So, go ahead, comment with your guess on what this new color is going to be, and everyone who guesses right will get entered in a drawing for one of my favorite ______ colored accessories :) I'll announce the color and the winner Friday the 8th before I go live with the new blog.
And in the meantime I'll be working like a crazy woman trying to wrap up all this design stuff--any chocolate, back rubs, or jamba juice's you feel led to send my way to help keep the creativity flowing, would be so much appreciated! ;)
Oh, and don't forget to check back tomorrow for the second part of the contest! It's my favorite!
Much Love.
