the blythe diaries: ...revamping...

so...about six months ago my best friend (mamie craig) & i started an etsy shop called "frolic & frills." it was fillled with fun, whimsical headbands for little girls. for two months, headbands kind of became our life. once school finals kicked in, we got a pinch overwhelmed and put etsy on hold for a while. now...we're taking a step back & looking at what direction we want our little company to go in, and we're finding it's a totally new direction.

we plan to spend the last months of summer planning planning planning & then launch a totally new idea by fall- we hope. we've got lots of secret projects we need to get a move on & then focus in on advertising & getting our name out there & finding people that support what we're about. it's a little nerve-wracking to dive into, but i also couldn't be more thrilled...five years ago, if someone would have told me i would be doing this in 2010, i would've completely flipped. i've wanted to do things like this for so long, it's such a thrill that it's starting to work out for me now. it's a dream...and my dream needs a good dose of really hard work out of me- which i am very ready to give in this season of my life. i'm crossing my fingers & starting a whole new season of revamping, reorganizing, recreating, and refocusing & hoping that it all pays off....

below are pictures of a bunch of headbands we've made. soon i'll make a post of some of the headbands we've sold that i loved. anyways, enjoy!

* mermaid's tail (i am in LOVE with this chunky metallic turquoise rick rack...this is one of the headbands i'm always tempted to steal from our stash & wear out myself.)
