How to Make Your Business’s Brand Identity Stand Out
If your business has a great idea and concept but you’re not finding the success you expected to, it might be down to your brand identity.

That might sound ridiculous and unfair, but it’s the reality that you have to deal with. Here’s how to improve your approach to branding. Perfect Your Logo The first thing you need to perfect is your logo. Without a strong logo, you’re not going to get anywhere.

Craft-Room Tuesday
I wanted to share what I am working on in the craft-room. First, I couldn’t take it anymore. Last weeks weird felting thing (truly don’t even know what to call it or where I was going with it!) but, it had to go. Now it’s a fat Santa. He still needs some work but at least he is no longer a weird whatever that was last week!! I finished Alice’s blanket. It’s soft, cuddly and ohhh sooo warm! I really hated for it to end, but I immediately started another one. I am sooooo addicted to knitting these blankets! Especially since it’s so cold here in Sandpoint. I started working on another cowl in such beautiful colors! I’m really liking these soft yarns. I am testing out some new Cricut cutting blades for my vinyl. Blades can get expensive. So yes, I jumped on 45 of them for under $14! I tested them with glitter vinyl which is the hardest to cut and some just plain ole iron on vinyl. They did a great job! YEAH me!! I whipped up a couple of new kitchen towels. Then I found a bundle of very cute and highly sarcastic sayings for towels…

Lotta Snow & Spotty Internet
We had snow from Friday till early this morning (Monday). That means a WHOLE lotta snow! Since I have Internet for seconds at a time I thought I would just pop on and add some pictures. First, I stepped out of my craftroom and took a shot of the trail cam. My goal is to get to that puppy before Friday! That snow goes up to my mid thigh! Of course Bear is in HEAVEN!!! Before the Internet goes again, have a GREAT day!!!!!!!!
