Mom, Inc.

A book titled: Mom, Inc.

I have to say…this book is a great resource for anyone starting a business. The book profiles various moms who have started businesses in the creative space. Not only does the book give honest anecdotes from experts in the creative field, but it also shares experiences and resources. While the book offers advice for moms balancing work and home, I wouldn’t discount it if you are not a mom. In fact, it addresses everything from coming up with a business plan to networking, marketing, and turning a hobby into a profitable business. I honestly wish I would have had this book when I was first starting out! It will become your new silent partner!  . Courtesy of: Amy Atlas Blog

Mint Licious

Is it just me, or is MINT the most amazing color?? 

I love how soft & calming it is, don't you? In my opinion it's best paired with GOLD. Those two colors together really stand out.  What do you think about that?? So excited!
