Weekend Recap

Two more weeks left of 2014! Whew! I feel like it was yesterday when I was writing about 2013 … I’m super busy preparing for the 2015 year and I’m ecstatic with the plans I have!!! This past weekend I was working a little bit at a time with redesigning my website. I’m not going to lie, it takes a LONG time to put everything in place but at least I don’t have to keep updating it every day, week or month. I try to only update my website twice a year. The tedious part I’m now having to do with my website is choosing out photos from 2014. Going to a tedious narrowing down which ones to feature on the blog … whew! It’s definitely not easy! Once that is in place, I’ll be tackling my blog design next! 🙂 Now I’m not going through a complete SMP makeover, I’m just upscaling my brand. 🙂 Excited for the new changes that are being made!!! 2015 is already looking bright!

HERE is a sneak peek of one of the pages!!! Love this SOOOOOO much more than what is currently on my website! 🙂

I’ve also been working on refining my friend’s website this weekend. Katelynn is a high end stylist based out of L.A. and deserves something that is really edgy and speaks to what her style is. Here’s a sneak peek of what I’m working on! SO different from mine, right?! Lol!

Looks like I’m busy doing website designs, but I was able to take this weekend and finish wrapping gifts, baking Christmas cookies and spending quality time with family & friends. 🙂 A great way to end the year!!!
