Great sugeestion about gearing some of the stuff towards children, I have a few ideas in mind, that I will be running past you lot, when they are ready.<br /><br />@Mie: Hey thanks for popping in! I don’t know much about flowers and have killed rather a lot. Start with something simple.<br /><br />@Jamie: Well I think you know how much I love that site and expect to see a LOT of things influenced by it!<br /><br />@Totsymae: Oh that is interesting to know! Do you prefer writing over art? I shall pop over to your blog shortly.<br /><br />@Linda: Oh thanks for narrowing down your favourite, that is always cool to know. Yes the garden has been good to me this year! Also going to see if I can photograph some of the flowers in the glasshouse at my local park, for something a bit more tropical.<br />Not sure what my opinion is of G+ yet, I do rather like it and am using it as a bookmarking kind of site, where I can just share stuff with ,myself, select few or the whole world and it has the freedom of not boring friends/family with computer stuff.<br /><br />@unmothered child: Hello , thanks muchly. Alas I did not finish my diploma. Well I say alas, it was actually the right decision for me at the time, to not finish it. Starting the counselling training was probably the best decision I made, as I learnt SO much, but I also learnt that I am not cut out to be a counsellor at this point in my life. I LOVE talking about it though and still do lots of reading on the subject. How is your training going? <br /><br />@Alison: Yay and Yay!

Maybe look into artfairs and photographic competitions?<br /><br />@Deray: Yay so glad you spotted that, I thought it was peeking too and giving a little wave.<br /><br />@Lois: Thanks so much for the support you have shown so far and for liking the flowers! There will be a lot more flowery stuff soon!<br /><br />@Tricia: Thanks so much dude!! Gosh what a lovely thing to say xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx It is cool that people are so behind what I am doing.<br /><br />@Feline9: Much appreciated xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx<br /><br />@Lisa: I literally cannot wait for you to see it! I have incorporated so many cool elements, well I hope you think that they are cool! So excited to know what her reaction will be! <br /><br />You are SO right when you talk about the balancing act, I ‘thought’ I had it covered, but in orider to do things properly I have now realised how easy it is for some things to get neglected. Thanks ever so much for putting it with my bumps in the road, it is MUCH appreciated. I seriously I don’t know how you manage to juggle all that you do.<br /><br />I remember from a while back, about you mentioning that the personal touches matter and having received some of your prints, I can definitely say that the small touches make a difference and I hopefully will do the same myself.crpitthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10740212737574269503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36805245.post-84765980297245173462011-07-21T15:41:01.249+01:002011-07-21T15:41:01.249+01:00Finally got my PC back chums, so will reply proper...Finally got my PC back chums, so will reply properly to all you lovely folk ASAP :)crpitthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10740212737574269503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36805245.post-65877165659905351822011-07-20T14:57:01.453+01:002011-07-20T14:57:01.453+01:00Very exciting about the business, and I'm lovi...Very exciting about the business, and I'm loving your flower photos Claire :DAlisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13420150980378381269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36805245.post-6624795050551671442011-07-20T07:08:17.443+01:002011-07-20T07:08:17.443+01:00Hey!

I guess now that I know you're on there, too, I'll have to go take a look at it.

You're being very practical about all this, and of course that's what you need to be. In that department I can be of little use to you, except to encourage you to follow your own good instincts. I love your photos and doodles and I know others will too. One suggestion might be to gear some of your crafts towards the children's market. Easy to imagine a kid owning a t-shirt or a plate with one of your doodly characters on it.nothingprofoundhttp://wwwaphorismscom.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36805245.post-83430869386394565312011-07-12T15:36:25.834+01:002011-07-12T15:36:25.834+01:00I am so excited to see the doodle for StepMom!

I know she won't be seeing it soon enough to ruin the suprise. <br /><br />Congrats on the progress with the business and ht ebank and all that. I wish I had thought it through better when I launched my photog bbusiness. I am playing catch up on paperwork now, whilst balancing my husbands businesss, my full time job, my scentsy business and my baby!!! <br /><br />I think your pics are great and def. sellable! One thing I learned at my first craft fair was to have something at every prioce point for buyers in all income ranges. Include your branding logo on EVERYTHING. So when they get home they can remember where to go online to get more items. Have change, business cards in all the bags and presentation is the key. Wrap their purchases with tissue and always smile and thank them for the business. But you knew all that I am sure.LAChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02804087660694789018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36805245.post-65032908579005436702011-07-12T14:09:55.285+01:002011-07-12T14:09:55.285+01:00Love the photos, go girl xxLove the photos, go girl xxfeline9https://www.blogger.com/profile/13312897216463064900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36805245.post-5596046546874046072011-07-12T14:02:49.356+01:002011-07-12T14:02:49.356+01:00So proud of you!
