Movin’ on up!

By Carolyn | Published: March 21, 2012

 

Guess what? I moved! Yes, I moved to Denver last week but I also moved my internet home to Hello, Sunshine!

I’m at a new point in my life and felt that I needed a clean slate. My new blog will focus more specifically on design and lifestyle, with a special emphasis on all things in the Mile High City.

I would so appreciate it if you would like Hello, Sunshine! on Facebook and add it to your Google Reader! And let all your friends know that I am now available for freelance design projects. Need a website or logo? Let’s talk!

Have you loved a Pisces today?

Happy birthday to me!

And to all my fellow fishies– may your lives be full to the brim with love!

like a lion

By Carolyn | Published: March 1, 2012

This year, the old adage, “in like a lion, out like a lamb” has taken on a whole new meaning. The “lion” in this case is not the weather, but the anxiety and fear I’m feeling about my big move. I have no problem with the excitement and adventure-seeking part, I just need someone to pack for me, tie up all my loose ends, say goodbye to my family and friends, and deal with all the difficult aspects of moving. If only everyone I love could come along with me (and all my stuff could fit in my car)!

things I need for my new home

By Carolyn | Published: February 27, 2012

I’ve been day dreaming lately about how to decorate my new apartment. I may be getting ahead of myself, considering said apartment doesn’t exist yet, but it’s fun to play dress up for a home in my head.

Make Moves

By Carolyn | Published: February 20, 2012

 

Big news blog buddies– I’m moving across the country!

I’m leaving in three weeks for Denver, Colorado to start a new chapter in my life with my best friend. I’m driving out with planned stops in Chicago and Lincoln, Nebraska. Any other cities I need to visit along the way?

And once I get to the Mile High City, what do I need to do? (Besides find an apartment and a job) I want to take advantage of all the city has to offer! What are you favorite things to do in Denver?

Be Mine

I love Valentine’s Day.  I love everything about it: flowers, chocolate, love, and greeting cards! This letterpress card was designed by my friend Ilana and available in her etsy shop, Sugar & Type. Isn’t it sweet?

Hurry up and buy it, Valentine’s Day is February 14th!
