We've moved the living room into winter mode with the sofa closer to the fire place. The curtain over the front door has been pulled closed at night. Wood has been chopped and the fire lit. No sign of the first frost yet but it is autumnal and rather lovely to be at home.
I do feel like I'm having to fight for time for my own work at the moment and my online presence is suffering. I've had such great support from customers online and I really don't want to lose that or let anybody down. I know nobody needs my bloggy rambling or to buy my work online, but it's important to me that the option is there; especially for people searching for ethical alternatives for jewellery purchases. And I simply want to make a living from my work and you, the people who read my blog, buy my work, attend workshops and chat with me are the ones who will make it happen and I thank you for that.
So, I've decided to go all out and change my online name; I've only been married a few months and am finding it confusing having two names! R was very happy for me to keep my maiden name but it was important to me to share his name. I was planning on keeping Cameron as a professional name, however, it suits me to just have one name what with being easily confused and all! Over the next few months there will be changes; the first one being twitter as I figure out preferred domain names, website redesign etc. It's exciting to be having a much needed re-vamp! Hopefully by the new year it will all be done. I will be concentrating on the festive build up getting extra pieces made so the website won't be making an instant appearance but I have been playing around with some designs.
In other news Hester kitten is getting bigger and Molly cat is marginally less angry about the whole situation.
Despite the roaring storms last week I am enjoying the season; we went to the beach to collect some glass today and got a good soaking. It filled me with joy for some reason. Possibly because it wasn't particularly cold out there and possibly because it's a blooming brilliant part of my working life.
