Whatcha working on?
I’m working on my Pullover Segment. I’ve got a few other balls in the air as well.

What’s going Well?
I haven’t had time to draw which has been a bummer, but hoping to get back to it this week.

I have lined up knitters for a bunch of projects, so need to finish up some pattern writing.

I wish someone would clean up my desk…[Read more]

Hey Riin – I am SO glad you're looking into your deeper business model and structure. I feel like @katie-franceschi gave some great ideas about profitability on a past forum post about profitability? I think it was in response to one of your posts?

Without knowing everything ELSE in your business (all the stuff we can't see), it's hard to see if…[Read more]

Lisa, I'm sending you some Postcards for my craftsy class!

Sure @jill-wolcott How about April when the book launches!

ANd I love that you can have one person on multiple lists and dont get charged more than once for them.

I use a weird combo of a Bullet Journal and the Desire Map Planner. I use the bullet journal to take my to-do lists apart and put into pieces, and the desire map planner for the bigger picture. I have to write everything down or there is no way I remember it all. 😉

I am using it now! I had to plug a few leaks in my overhead, but wanted something like convertkit. one of my favorite authors is using it and I started researching! Although it doesn't do everything that convert kit does, it is close.. and far less expensive!

I LOVE IT already!

I can put together a special door prize marker set. I will include it with the other goodies I am sending!

what's going well & what are you working on?

Focus.

Things are moving along. While my goal of October 1st for a large section of my map likely won't happen, I'm happy to still make progress. The reasons I am behind are not ones that generally hold me up, so I'm okay with that. Not much new to report other than I'm focusing better than I did…[Read more]

That's great @nessa-jay, it's looks good doesn't it! I mainly wondering how it compares to using mailchip. Who do you use to send you emails at the mo?

Welcome, @tawny865794! That is lovely jewelry you make – I never knew that you can melt glass with the help of the sun alone…

I lived in NE Minneapolis for 5 years! It's a lovely city (I was there for the 5 consecutive mildest winters on record, I believe).

I'm Tawny Reynolds, owner, designer, and, you know, everything, of Sundrop Jewelry. I make sun-melted glass jewelry from recycled bottles and stained glass, all melted using sunshine and a giant magnifying glass!

Sundrop Jewelry started in 2005 as a 4-person enterprise between my husband and I and a friend and his wife, but everyone else has now…[Read more]
