I Made This: Scalloped Edge Notebook

Although bookmaking is a huge part of my life, I'm embarrassed to admit how little of my art I have shared here on the blog. I'm really proud of my work and even in the process of starting my own business selling handmade books— and yet I've still kept a lot of this information private. I guess part of it is because I don't know what I'm doing. Which is exciting for me: products, branding, packaging— my head is full of ideas!

But it's also scary. And honestly, when I'm in the planning stages of something, I have this habit of not telling anyone about something unless it's been a million percent confirmed. I guess I feel like telling people will somehow jinx everything. (Because jinxes are totally real, right?) I also don't want to appear as someone who is all talk, ya know? I would rather be like, "Yo, look at this thing I did— it's awesome!" instead of constantly talking about how I'm "going to" do something. So here goes nothing:

HEY GUYS I'M STARTING MY OWN BUSINESS SELLING MY HANDMADE BOOKS!

Okay, so no more secrets! Oh, except maybe one more: you can pop over to Sandra's blog and enter for a chance to win this book for her birthday giveaway— good luck!
