I sent out a ‘How’d you come to be doing what you’re doing right now?’ sort of question to some of my bloggy/creative business friends and here’s what Marilyn of Pulp Sushi had to say.
Not to sound like an old hag but I’ve been blogging for a long time using various mediums (ie: Diaryland, LiveJournal, etc) way before I opened an Etsy shop and I didn’t have much direction. Once I discovered that tapping my creative enegy into jewelry making was for me, that’s where my blogging direction headed. I use my blog to help get the Pulp Sushi brand out there and share with others the inspiration behind what I make and the things that make me gush (ie: puppies, pretty dresses, monsters and dessert).
Fun news: There’s a giveaway going on over at Pulp Sushi right now so run and enter!
Cristina of Obsessive Compulsive had this to say.
I’ve always been a fan of nail polish and makeup. When I was a kid my mom purchased one of the “Klutz” books about nail art (I think they still publish it too!). I used to take it with me to birthday parties and do everyone’s nails. In terms of blogging about my nails and makeup, it just sort of happened. I can’t even remember when I started blogging, and how often my blogging ideas change (probably as often as my nail polish). One day in Chapter’s, I got the idea to create a blog about all the things I’m obsessed with. That’s how I came up with my blog name, and it makes life a little easier to know I can blog about my nails one day or completely change subjects and blog about my dog the next.
She’s also offering up an awesome prize pack, pictured below. Just leave a comment below to enter. I dislike having to jump though hoops to enter giveaways so i don’t require it but a visit to her blog and/or spreading the word about the giveaway would be nice
Enter until Thursday night and I’ll post the winner on Friday with my Create Along post.
Wheeee! Thank you!
Cool! Thanks for the chance :)
Very nice! great products and I let my college daughter know! :) thanks!
Those look like fun products!!! And I will definitely be checking those blogs out for make-up and jewelry tips!!
I remember my first nail polish kit when I was a little girl. It was by Tinkerbell (if anyone remembers them) and included a lip gloss. Until today, I get excited when I see a great collection of nail polish, lip gloss and makeup. Add a makeup brush and it’s really a score.
Great giveaway! Thank you!
