Specs & Wings 2010 Review!

This has been such a fun and exciting year as we've gotten to explore starting an art business! Specs & Wings has grown from a dream to a reality this year and I am so thankful for this journey! I can't believe we're doing this!!! God is so good and I love worshiping Him through art. I hope that He is always glorified in what I create! In 2010 lots of fun things have happened and it's been so fun to see it all unfold! Here's a little re-cap..

In the Spring...
I designed a new line of coffee cozies, painted a bride's cast, featured a DIY on my blog, had a tie dye party with Danielle, sewed a large clutch, made 26 "table card" guest books for M+A's wedding, had my coffee cozy featured in Christina Shippey Photography's giveaway, had a huge art swap with some very cool art students, took an online business class, and learned to throw pottery on the wheel!


In the Summer...
 My "moo cards" arrived, I journaled about my art dreams, I re-opened my etsy shop and threw a blog party, Danielle and I started "Flying Olive" and sold our art at the Midland Downtown Farmer's Market, I made custom coffee cozies, painted custom photo paintings, and designed new accessories to sell on etsy and at the market!


In the Fall...
My coffee cozy was featured on Lissa Anglin's Photo blog, Sugar Browns Coffee Shop started to carry my vintage tie coffee cozies, I created a new logo, Flying Olive sold fall artwork at the Farmer's Market, Pink Tumbleweed Boutique started carrying Flying Olive accessories, I made a custom guiar strap, we created lots of fabric pumpkins, I taught on online art journaling class,  Specs &Wings was featured on Pink Coffee Photo Art blog (scroll on down) and included in a holiday art swap on Oh, Hello Friend Blog (#4)!



In the Winter...
 I shared "advent" with my sweet blogging friends and offered a new DIY, made tons of little fabric trees, got to paint a few custom canvases,and also had the priviledge of creating fabric wedding flowers for an entire wedding party!
It's been an incredible year and I can't wait to see what 2011 brings! Thanks for all of your support on this crazy, fun, exciting journey!

happy new year!!!
