Consultant's perspective

Read my fab West Coast's Rep's Blog: Crow & Canary

Carina-my beloved and hard working Rep, who can be found traveling throughout the West Coast and beyond-has lots of pretty photos of cool stuff on her Crow & Canary Blog. She has an impeccable eye and is always finding wonderfully marketable lines from artists around the country that are not found everywhere. Her keen style and sweet personality have made her a fast favorite among the artists she represents and the stores that call on her to select product to stock their shelves. Visit crowandcanary.com for more information on the lines that Carina represents.

Snowed In

It's a wintery blast here in Portland and most of us are snowed in with more snow on the way. Internet connectivity is spotty and I have not experienced a power failure yet. I am thankful for my new fancy phone so I can continue to check email when the wireless bars are strong. There is always work to be done and my pantry is full.

Reading for all!

Lizzy the studio cat wants more naps and reading for this rainy day after a serious heat wave in air-conditioning challenged Portland.

There have been some fabulously written posts over the past few months by more prolific bloggers than myself. Lots of answers to stationery industry questions and inspiration to boot. Check out "I'm Reading" in the navbar on the right. New items are added often while I do my daily browsing online. Enjoy!
