Happy New Year Everyone! I hope you all had a safe and wonderful time with family, friends and love! It was a good first year for A Fine Tangle and me! We started off in February on a slow start but after the nuts that was summer camp this summer and starting my first year teaching, it has been moving up! I am so excited for what this year holds! I'm almost done breaking down my goals for this year, don't worry, I will share sometime this week! Until then here are just a few things that I loved, accomplished and experienced this past year!
First up: can you believe this was the blog banner I started with? Branding was foreign to me and I had no clue what "look" I was going for.....needless to say it has changed a lot!
This was the item that moved me towards tangles: seeing my blog banner, a friend asked me to make one for her, and I suppose you can say the rest is kinda history! And I must say, it was a great decision! I love creating personalized gifts and textural jewelry, makes me feel all warm and cozy inside! So thanks Ryan and Sara!
September I started my first year teaching!: It was an exciting and nerve-wrecking time, and still have another few months to go! I have learned so much so far and have developed so many new ideas! It is amazing!
Soon after, I posted my first (big) tutorial! I was so honored to have them featured on One Pretty Thing and Cotton & Curls! I have some plans to start thinking and creating more!
In October I began the creation of my product line for CityLove Clothing! I must say it was one of the neatest and best things I did in 2011! So much Buffalo love!
I'm wondering: How was your 2011?
ooh i love these! i just got home from the store with pipe cleaner and yarn for this very project..when i stumbled onto your blog. hope mine turn out as cute as yours!
ReplyDeleteThanks...I actually use stainless steel wire for mine, allowing for stability since I do sell and ship these around the country. Best of luck!
