A Note About Writing
I've never felt like I was a writer. I'm a reader and by default I think that makes me a fair writer. I think I have a distinct voice and style. Like every writer I have things that I want to get better at. I have a bad habit of reading what I think is there instead of what's actually there. I can be a horrendous speller, and I've never mastered the whole there vs. their battle. More then once, I've been re-reading a old an old post of mine and have found an error. The last thing(I'm sure I'll find more things later) I want to fix is recently I'm finding my writing to be thin.
So moving forward I'm going to try and attack these problems two ways: first I'm going to write something everyday. second I'm going to start reading slower. I'm a speed reader, always have been...I like to get to the endings as quickly as possible. thirdly I'm going to crack open one of my old college English books. I'm sure I have one that specifically talks about grammar.
If anyone else has any ideas on what I can do to become a better writer leave them in the comments below.
A la Prochaine!

New Project Alert! (...and Free!)
Hi all,
I wanted to tell you guys about a new (and free) project that I'm taking part of. It's called Letters to Your Childhood. Its a project I found out about from stalking the Sketchbook Project. If you guuys remember I tried to do it a couple of years ago but didn't complete it. I've found that smaller projects suite me best. To participate all you have to do is by Jan 22nd, and get them your letter to you yonger self, via tweet or email by the 30th.
So I'm going to do this project and share whatI come up with here, ofcourse. Let me know if any of you sign up as well!

Latelier de la Petite Dame Holiday Pop-Up Shop 2012!
Hello all!
L'atelier de la Petite Dame's Holiday Pop Up has been a success so far. There is just one week left to grab a bracelet or ring hand crafted by me! From now until January 13th enter "bye-baby" at check out to receive 30% off your purchase. There is nothing like the joy, and sense of accomplishment that comes with seeing your dream come to fruition. The start of this new endeavor hasn't been easy, but there is nothing like having your own.
Words can't describe how excited I am about the future of this business! The shop is going away for the rest of the Winter, but will be back in the Spring. Not only will we be back but we will have new product too. I'm also hoping to have a lookbook for the summer!
That's everything for now, as always for daily updates be sure to check in on here and on the FB.
A la prochaine!
