In Honor Of Design: New Year + New Chapter

1.03.2011

New Year + New Chapter

This is how I feel at the start of a new year! :D

A fresh new page on a new chapter in my life. Each year is so completely from the next, and like 2010, it is full of both blessings and trials, both which can enrich your life.

Will be posting some resolutions for the new year one at a time so you all can hold me accountable for completing them;)

My first resolution is already being completed this week. I am being spontaneous, and starting off the New Year with a bang! I booked a last minute trip to L.A. on Thursday to meet up with my friend/ editor of Radiant Magazine to attend a Private Movie Screening ....we have some exciting plans for the magazine underway! Also in the plans- hit up the L.A. Fabric district to get supplies for the IHOD Spring 2011 Line! Looking forward to this!

Stay tuned for the results!

Thanks for your friendship in 2010! Looking forward to keeping in touch in 2011!
