inspiration can be found everywhere. it doesnt have to be something beautiful. sometimes we find inspiration in the "ugly" things. sometimes we may need to see things that are ugly to understand and remember whats really beautiful in this life, in this world. simple things bring me the most amount of joy. wild day dreams, little intricacies, smiles, animals, and hope. the future is a big thing and it will never happen if you dont hold onto today.
today marked my first day as being a full time book maker, or some may say, unemployed...

well it started off quite well with a visit to the local flea market at seven am with my girlfriend and father. we were on a search for more and different supplies for my journals. unfortunately we were quite unsuccessful. its alright though because when i came home i have come to realize that one of my journals was featured on etsylush.com. a nap was followed soon after that. when i woke i went right to work on a few journals, from getting some paper stained and left outside to dry and preparing and cutting wood for my new line of mini purse friendly journals.

after awhile of being stuck in my head i decided to make a trip to barnes and noble to buy a few new books to read.

after listening to the alex jones show while preparing more wood for finish and the like i decided to call it a day and relax.

new journals will be listed within the next couple of days!
i just finished up a completely new journal today!. its a mini one, and it turned out better than i expected. photos will be up soon and they will be available at both my etsy shop and zibbet shop!

This coming sunday will mark my first day of making journals as my primary mode of income, this day i will be out looking for more supplies and things to inspire me to design and make different types and styles of journals. i am anxious to start out on this path, this little journal to find out what my potential is as an artist. i look forward to finding out how it will all work out.
