Hello, Caroline-made…

Remember that one time I wrote a post about how to be brave? Well, if I’m totally honest, writing a blog post on being brave doesn’t make you (me) brave. There’s something a little bit scary with following through with an idea, but on the flip side, not following through is just a tad bit scarier. For two years (!!!) I have had the idea of launching a brand new handmade shop called Caroline-made. A few months ago I found my original notes for C-M and couldn’t believe how much time has passed since the idea first came to me. What have I been doing all this time?

In order to finish my goal of launching this shop I’m going back to my 3 tips on how to be brave: I need to think simplistically this week, I need to appropach my day with open hands, and I need to act & accomplish instead of watching & wishing. (Extra emphasis on that last point.)

The momentum for launching Caroline-made is really picking up speed. And friends, I’m so very very excited. If you’re interested in seeing some shop sneaks you can follow along with Instagram or Facebook.

Caroline-made products are blanketed with courage; they are dotted with color. They are pretty accessories for the modern, sophisticated gal.

I can’t wait to show you all that I’ve been working on…

Thank you for your encouragement & support. I’ll be back soon with more updates. XO

    Yay!!! So excited to see what you’ve been dreaming up!

    I’m taking your advice this week for myself also – because I am in final stages of setting up our first Etsy shop and yes, momentum is needed!

    Can’t WAIT to see Caroline-made up and running. :)

    Annnnd, of course be easy on yourself because things take more time with a sweet little boy hogging your attention (as he should)! :)
