Limelight Designs: Defining passion
http://limelightdesigns.blogspot.com/2011/07/defining-passion.html
Wednesday, July 27, 2011. What do you do? I have a love/hate relationship with that question. It forces us to define ourselves by our jobs - a definition that's often inaccurate. I don't always feel comfortable answering it, depending upon who's asking or how I'm feeling about my life that day. I admit that I do ask it of others, though, because it helps me get to know people better. I read somewhere that Australians don't ask what you do. They ask instead, "What do you like to do?

Limelight Designs: January 2010
http://limelightdesigns.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 31, 2010. Year of Jewelry 2010, Week 4. The theme for this week: "What's My Story? As most people who know me are well aware, a big part of my story for the past 14 years has been our two golden retrievers. The only "kids" my husband and I ever had, they were our joy, our laughter and the center of our lives. I made the pendants pictured here - my first attempt at resin - in honor of our sweet and happy golden furkid. You then need to adhere the tape-coated photo to the bottom of the pend...

Limelight Designs: Your brand. It’s ok to have more than one…
http://limelightdesigns.blogspot.com/2011/08/your-brand-its-ok-to-have-more-than-one.html
Tuesday, August 2, 2011. Your brand. It’s ok to have more than one…. I’ve been struggling with the idea of creating art that fills one small, clear niche versus creating several very different kinds of work that each draws its own target market. Everyone seems to have an opinion about which is the “right” way to go. I’ve been told by some (who have lots more art experience that I do) that I should choose one of my varied collections and stick with that. Let the others go. F-O-C-U-S. But...And it’s ...

Limelight Designs: How's your website working for you?
http://limelightdesigns.blogspot.com/2011/08/hows-your-website-working-for-you.html
Friday, August 19, 2011. How's your website working for you? Everyone knows a great website when they visit one, but do you really know the individual qualities that the best sites share? In this week's edition of the Artful Success. I knew that my website (a purchased template that I customized myself) had some issues, but after further thought, I've decided to take it in a different direction when I redesign it. And I will hire someone else to do it! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). There was an err...

http://limelightdesigns.blogspot.com/2011/07/im-trying-something-new.html
Friday, July 15, 2011. Something new. a plan! And because the daunting list of big, scary projects is broken out into bite-sized action steps, I'm smiling. It's still going to be a lot of work. But this time, I might actually accomplish something. Maybe I'll even finish all of them! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I'm probably the only person ever to have worn sparkly socks to a corporate job! I live in the beautiful Pacific Northwest with my very supportive husband. View my complete profile.
