Over the course of the past ten years, I've made many changes, shed countless tears, and I've royally messed up my site at times. I always knew that it looked a bit confused and at times even deranged, but it was the best I could do with my limited knowledge and budget. But over time, I taught myself more and even took on an entirely new software package and started over. However, with my divorce a few years ago and two moves, remarriage and two new step-children, licensing agreements and distant design clients- I wondered if I'd ever find the time to really figure out how to make my site look more professional.
With the upcoming publicity my company will be receiving (stay tuned for an announcement...not allowed to divulge details until the TV network powers say so!) my dear friend Joanne began prodding me to give my site some attention and ensure it properly reflects my attention to detail and professionalism! So I've spent the past week making drastic changes to the site and have even updated my logo. I would love it if you would check it out and feel free to make critical suggestions as well. The "press" page is not yet cleaned up, but that will be a project for another week, as I've got other projects to tackle for now. But I feel that the site has a great start and will provide the clean and professional look I wanted.
I know that most of my readers are either artists or interior designers like myself and are probably just as afraid as I was, to tackle something so technical and daunting. So for those of you who think that "artsy fartsy" types (aka "right-brained" people) are not capable of such "left-brained" projects, think again! This artsy-lefty was able to do it all by herself. I think I might open a bottle of wine tonight to celebrate my "impossible" accomplishment!
I'll leave you with a few images of my logos over the years.
Happy Decorating!
