Solstice Volume 2

Back in January, Kue came out with a new Solstice Mix. Here is the artwork I created for him which features one of my photographs. Be sure to check out his mix here!

Wow - It's been 9 months!!!

Wow - It's been 9 months since I have last updated my blog. That is horrible. Not much happened the last 5 months of 2013 - so you didn't miss much there. However, 2014 is looking to be a whole different story! Which will hopefully mean many more posts this year. YAY!

Since February I have started a new business (where most of my time is currently being spent). I guess it really could have fallen under a "Coco's Creations" sub-business, but I really wanted it to have an identity of its own. Introducing Beads and Butter! All kinds of earrings and necklaces made out of polymer clay, all shaped by hand, by me. It's so much fun and I'm loving it - though, I wish I had more time to devote to it.

2014 is also my "Step-it-Up" year for my photography. I have always had an interest in photography. (Thank you, Great Grandma Moe!) I started taking my photography to an artistic level back in 2001, but haven't done much with it since circa 2009 (with only one session in 2010!) (You can see some of those photos here and here... oh and here) But that is all about to change. I'm stepping up my studio game with some new toys and have a few more pieces on their way to me. I will definitely be doing more shoots before 2014 is over.

Lots of new toys!

Some other projects I have planned for 2014 are 1) working on our backyard and creating some hand-made decor for it, and 2) working on my studio. Posts on these projects, and more, are forthcoming, so stay tuned. Here's to a creative year! *cheers*
