A change is coming...Do you dive in or slip in slowly?

Oh my gosh, I came here today to do some housekeeping so I could start writing again....I've missed writing. It's crazy that my very first post on this blog was September 21, 2011, almost exactly 12 years ago.  Where has the time gone? 



My last post here was about how to make a face mask on April 2, 2020. 

You won't find it here on this blog anymore. I filed it in the "please don't remind me" pile. 


My life has not been idle.


So many bunnies....over 5000 out there in the world.  I love making my bunnies!
                                                           
           

Did you know that long before my bunnies took over my Imaginarium, I created and sold lots of crafty things in my Etsy shop? Bags (of course), tissue boxes, shoe bags, pencil pouches,angels 
(lots of angels).



I have continued creating non-bunny things. It keeps my mind working and soothes my soul. Recently, I got the itch to have a place to put my non-bunny creations.(silly me)
I scratched that itch and gave it a name and opened a second shop on Etsy. Fractured Fabric Arts  

 After all, it's what I love to do....cut it up and put it back together! It was going to be amazing....



The younger me would have 2,3 or more shops (that's my dad in me) but, this older me is having a dilemma. Having more than one shop to take care of is feeling very scattered to me. I don't like it. 

My life has become compact and minimalist and having two shops is just not fitting in. 



Honestly, the only place I want turmoil is in my sewing room 
while I am creating.

A change will have to be made. It's going to be painful because it will involve computer time...ugh...and thinking....ugh...and social media stuff...UGH...lol.

I'm diving in...making the change....

Do you "dive in" to a change in your life or are you more of a "toe in the water then slowly slide in" kind of change maker?
