Yesterday’s birthday activities were pretty fun. Tried my hand at some karaoke. Managed not to hurt too many peoples ears. Some of the other girls, though, really like to hit those high off key notes. Needless to say, we had some music, some laughs and some goodies. And we did get all dressed up.
Going out and doing something out of the ordinary can really get the creativity flowing. It didn’t help with my other post I want to write, but it did help me get the ball rolling on another project. Writing this blog is the first little step to getting where I want to be. Let me explain.
Distracted is a word that really describes my hobbies or side hustles. I’m always moving to and from things, but they feed off of each other. At the center is my positive outlook on things, my creativity, and my want to connect with others and help them. I am sharing things that motivate me or inspire me, even things that just make me giggle. Someone out there likes the same things as me or can hear the same phrase as I do and take it to heart like I have. So, I will share it in another form.
That form is Etsy. Whenever some special event comes up or I need something custom, that is where I turn. So many others have created businesses making things or selling things on sites like this one. For now, I will be creating content that I personally would use on a daily basis, starting with goals and affirmations as we go into this new year. Everything will be printable from home.
I will build my Distracted Damsel brand thru blogging and creating new things for my shop. My hope is that my readers, friends or family might like some of my designs or inspirational quotes. Or maybe some planner pages or coffee cups. The possibilities are endless.
The one thing I will say is that it will only be a creative outlet for me. It isn’t my priority or my intent to sell to anyone. It will be there for anyone who can relate to my specific brand of, let’s just say eclectic. I will keep you all posted when it’s up and going but I’m excited to give it a shot. Weekend projects here I come!
