Are Times Too Hard for Success??

Times are tough right now. For everyone. I was laid off in October (no, I'm not turning this into a sob story) and still have not been able to find a job. I looked at my lay off as a great opportunity to put some real time and effort into Fabulously Fierce. I guess my pre-occupied mind did not figure in that the country was a mess and it probably wasn't the best time to try to start a business from the ground up. It has been discouraging, and it's hard to separate the fact that the economy sucks from the possibility that my stuff just sucks. I know my stuff doesn't suck, in fact, I think it's pretty damn awesome...just not everyone's cup of tea. But there are days when I just want to throw in the towel.
Luckily, I have an amazing support system of friends and family who want me to succeed and at the end of the day that makes all the difference in the world.
So I will keep plugging away and looking for new avenues for promotion and hope that soon things will start to look up.

What was the point of this post?? I have no idea, but that's what blogs are for, right?

More Pillows!!

I am having so much fun making these pillows now that I have the piping down to a science! So far the designs have been pretty cutesy, but in the next batch I am going back to my roots and making some goth and punk inspired pillows. I'm excited about those!!

Throw Pillows

I know I have been promising pillows for awhile now and the first batch is finally here! It took a lot of trial and error for me to get the piping down, but I finally beat it into submission and won the battle!! I am proud of these first few and I have many more on the way!

Piping hates me

So, I will have pillows available in my shop very very soon. But this piping is KILLING me! The process seems so simple, yet I am having such a difficult time of it. To make matters worse, I'm a perfectionist, so if it isn't perfect I get a little nuts and start ripping things up.
At least my customers will know that if they buy a pillow it will be up to my standards!
Keep your eyes peeled, they will be for sale SOON!!!
