I'm a illustrator and jewelry designer living in the BIG apple, with the most wonderful guy in the world, and an ENORMOUS fluffy cat ironically named Baby.
I create whimsical, colorful jewelry for girls and women.

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;">Happy <span style="background-color: white;">Friday</span>!!</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;">On Fridays I'll be chatting about things i Love aka things i think YOU'LL love too! Sometimes it might be a funny video to bring you joy [like in my newsletters] or someone i think is <span style="background-color: #d9ead3;"> AWESOME </span>.</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;"> It seems like it would make <span style="background-color: #f4cccc;">COMPLETE</span> sense to talk about one of my favorite artists for the first 'i LOVE Friday!' so I'd like to introduce you to <a href="http://lisacongdon.com/" target="_blank">Lisa Congdon</a>!<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;">[although I'm sure most if not all of you know of her already!]</span></span> </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;"> Lisa is a lady of many trades! She paints abstract paintings, she does hand lettering, she's licensing her work, she teaches, and she's a great speaker - She's genuine and has a sweet voice. I've heard her lectures twice already, and i can't wait for the next one!</span></span></div>

Kids that look like they came from a catalog, and a house that's decorated to a Tee. </span></span>One
of the main things i want people to see about my journey is that it's
NOT perfect. I didn't spend 40 minutes making my breakfast look like a
magazine made it for me, ill just share it and hope that it inspires
people the way it is. </span></span> </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;">And that's why my ALL time <span style="background-color: #fce5cd;">FAVORITE</span>
reason i love <a href="http://lisacongdon.com/" target="_blank">Lisa</a> so much, is that she is insanely honest on her blog.
She doesn't make everything perfect. She shares her struggles, her anxieties, and her progress in a way that makes you realize she's a <span style="background-color: #ead1dc;">real
person</span>. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;">Take a look around her website, her blog. Count how many different types of work styles shes has! It's amazing. :)</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;">I'm finding lately in the hussle and bussle of life, that it's harder and harder to just take a moment to <span style="background-color: white;">BREATHE</span>. For me it's taking a moment to sit with a warm beverage [even in summer!], often a treat and my sketchbook. To jot down what the daily anxiousness's are, and to randomly make to-do lists to get things out of my head. [even though i already have them on my list at home!]</span></span></div>

<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;">However that looks for you...i <span style="background-color: #d9ead3;">ENCOURAGE</span> you to take a few moments for self care everyday. It really does make ALL the difference!!</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">Hi friends!! It's been a WHILE!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">I just got back from Florida. I was visiting my family, and had the pleasure to 'meet' my nephew! <span style="background-color: #fff2cc;">Yay</span>! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">While i was there, computer-less, i spent a majority of my time exploring my creativity in ways i don't often allow myself to do here in NY. My mom bought me a NEON EXPLOSION of fun crafty things! [sharpies, colored pencils and the <span style="background-color: #fce5cd;">COOLEST</span> pencil pouch i've ever seen!!]</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">I spent time hugging doggies [they have three] and swimming everyday. I learned that computer FREE days are so <span style="background-color: #fff2cc;">IMPORTANT</span>. I spent a lot of time just being with friends and family, but i spent a SIGNIFICANT amount of time writing, drawing, and coming up with new designs, and planning my current and future projects.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">It's funny.. as artists we wish we had the time to work more on crafty things and less on business things... but this past week </span><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">I learned that spending a TON of time using your right brain is <span style="background-color: #d9d2e9;">EXHAUSTING</span>. I guess the balance is okay for now... [even if i still wish i allowed myself to be crafty more often]</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">All and all it was a good trip and a good reminder how <span style="background-color: #fce5cd;">IMPORTANT</span><span style="background-color: white;"> </span>rest is for not only my body, but for my career too!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">Is there anything you've learned [about yourself] recently? I'd <span style="background-color: #f4cccc;">LOVE</span> to hear about it! :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">Happy Wednesday friends!!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">Dear Friend,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="text-align-center" id="yui_3_17_2_1_1405082189361_34357" style="line-height: 24px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: white;">There are going to be moments where you heart will </span><span style="background-color: #ead1dc;">SOAR</span><span style="background-color: white;">, the creativity will </span><span style="background-color: #fff2cc;">FLOW</span><span style="background-color: white;"> and </span><span style="background-color: #fce5cd;">JOY</span><span style="background-color: white;"> just oozes out of you. But often, bumps in the road will hit you when you're not expecting it, and when it does, i want you always Believe in YOU. </span></span></div>
<div class="text-align-center" id="yui_3_17_2_1_1405082189361_34357" style="background-color: white; line-height: 24px; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">There will be people who will support you along the way in your journey, but there will also be people who just think you're crazy. Sometimes, these people will be the ones closet to you, and like a quick rip of a bandaid...that will hurt the most.</span></div>
<div class="text-align-center" id="yui_3_17_2_1_1405082189361_37352" style="background-color: white; line-height: 24px; text-align: center;">

<div class="text-align-center" id="yui_3_17_2_1_1405082189361_41422" style="line-height: 24px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: white;">During these hard times, it's MOST important that you </span><span style="background-color: #d9d2e9;">BELIEVE IN YOU</span><span style="background-color: white;">. Through thick and thin, believe in YOU. YOU can do this. YOU have things under control, even when you don't feel like you do. I have faith that things will all work out... in time. And </span><span style="background-color: #f4cccc;">BRAVE you</span><span style="background-color: white;">.. you will PUSH through the hard times, because deep deep down inside... you BELIEVE IN YOURSELF. </span></span></div>
<div class="text-align-center" id="yui_3_17_2_1_1405082189361_41422" style="background-color: white; line-height: 24px; text-align: center;">

<div class="text-align-center" id="yui_3_17_2_1_1405082189361_45688" style="line-height: 24px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: white;">And on those days when it's hard, and you don't seem to believe in yourself.. take a moment, please take JUST a moment... to sit and breathe... and </span><span style="background-color: #d9ead3;">relish</span><span style="background-color: white;"> in the fact that </span><span style="background-color: #fff2cc;">you GOT this</span><span style="background-color: white;">!!! In time... </span><span style="background-color: white;">you SO got this</span><span style="background-color: white;">!!!!</span></span></div>
<div class="text-align-center" style="background-color: white; line-height: 24px; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">For the last few weeks i've been CRAVING cherry pie. Like <span style="background-color: #d9ead3;">HARDCORE</span>, craving it. Without having time to really make one from scratch [and not wanting to buy a meh piece of pie] i randomly thought of a pseudo version!!! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: #f4cccc;">AND IT'S DELICIOUS</span>! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">So delicious that i eat it almost every day, and since it's healthy, i don't even feel guilty for having 'pie' everyday!! YAY!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 24px;"><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">You just mash up a graham cracker or two in a bowl with your fingers, add some honey, and spoon over some thawed frozen cherries. Stir Stir Stir and BAM! Amazing dessert that doesn't give you guilt. It's amazing!! </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">I hope you are having a MAGICAL Monday!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">Here in Nightly Doodle land I'm having one of those days where I end up doing household tasks to ignore all the other tasks i have to do.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">There are SO many exciting things to do, and so many mundane things to do, that i feel caught in the middle sometimes.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">Alas, putting on a movie [Today is a Kristen Wigg one!] and just DOING THINGS is how it's just going to be.

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">If you follow me on Instagram or Facebook, you know that this past month was a pretty hard time for me. <span style="background-color: #d9d2e9;">BUT</span>, this past week I felt a GIANT weight was lifted off me, and things were falling into place! :)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">Last week was </span><span style="background-color: #fff2cc; font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">TREMENDOUS</span><span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">! I decided last week something i've been debating for YEARS... </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">I'm going to take part in National Stationary Show 2015!!! Eeek!! And the funny part was that during the last few hard weeks when i was ignoring my actual work, [making a new logo, buying new colored envelopes] i was actually doing things to prep for NSS and i didn't even know it! Crazypants!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">Other then that <span style="background-color: #d9ead3;">BIG</span> decision, i spent extra time doing things that truly <span style="background-color: #fff2cc;">MATTER</span> last week.. instead of just working all the time!! Boy had off from work for the Jewish holiday [and we had Cheesecake to celebrate!!] and there were lots of picnics and parks involved. All and all it was a <span style="background-color: #fce5cd;">SUPER</span> great week! </span><span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">AND! I had SO MANY incredible posters last week for the </span><a href="http://www.jenipherlyn.com/blog-party-folks-weeks/" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; font-size: x-large;" target="_blank">#DoodleDream blog party</a><span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">!! Holy COW. It's such an honor. It really is!! </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">I spent this past Monday walking the National Stationary Show and Surtex, and it started off as a super anxious day. You wouldn't think walking an <span style="background-color: #fce5cd;">INSPIRING</span> show you might want to do some day would bring you anxiety, but as someone who always feels 'not good enough' and like a burden.. walking a show full of talented, driven people showing their colorfully incredible work is intimidating as heck!!! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">And at the beginning, i stayed scared, walking about, babbling about cats to anyone who would listen.. which HOLY CRAP, almost ALL of these photos are of cats, i just realized I'm INSANE. But alas, i found my friend <a href="http://augustwren.com/" target="_blank">Jennifer</a>, or actually she found me... because of my cat shoes i instagram'd that morning [oh the irony!] And the day got a little better!</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; font-size: large; text-align: start;">She found me last year on Instagram by reading the same magazine I read! Lol amazing right?? We chatted and then I continued down the row to be stopped TWO more times!! All starting the same way.. "Hey! I know you!" It was indeed crazy, and wonderful and I bet <a href="http://augustwren.com/" target="_blank">Jennifer</a> thought I was quite popular even though I'm pretty much an introverted hibernating (in my studio) artist. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">After a few hours at the show, and a while at a tea house to decompress, i had dinner with 27 other incredibly talented women!! And even though i'm pretty nuts, and have a cat obsession... I <span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">spent the evening being 100% myself. My weird, quirky, bouncy human self, and you know what? They liked me!!!!

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">I'm not gonna lie... this week was a <span style="background-color: #fce5cd;">really</span> hard one for me, and instead of being ANGRY at myself for not posting such pretty doodles people sent me, or to bash myself for not even posting my OWN blog post, i'm just going to tell MYSELF {and YOU} that it's okay... and i'm <span style="background-color: #f4cccc;">PROUD</span> of you for taking time to feel better before posting.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">As a work-a-holic i tend to <span style="background-color: #d9ead3;">FORCE</span> myself to work even when i'm nearly in tears from anxiety. And this week, i didn't. I embraced {being myself}... my anxious self, and did 'fun' things that mean boss lady Jenipher never lets me do... like making art!!! Any art i wanted!

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">Kerry says "In the 7th grade I got some of the best advice I ever had in my young life:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">One day, you won't know any of these people. Maybe 1 or 2 of them. Your lives will move on & so will theirs. So don't worry about their bullsh*t. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">That came from my step-mom. If it had come from my parents I might have ignored it, so if you are an aunt/uncle/step-parent/person on the periphery of a young person's life, you are in a unique position to make an impact. Know that <span style="background-color: #fce5cd;">kids</span> they <span style="background-color: #f4cccc;">are</span> <span style="background-color: #d9ead3;">listening</span> to you. Her words seemed a little long for a blog graphic but I felt they could be summed up by something my grandmother used to tell me all. the. time. This too shall pass. We all know that nothing is permanent - even if it feels like it."</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">One of my best friends texted me yesterday <span style="background-color: #f4cccc;">SUPER</span> excited about opening an Etsy shop asking if i could help her. So i decided to make her [and <span style="background-color: #fff2cc;">YOU</span>] a blog post tutorial! :)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">These are the TOP <strike>10</strike> 11 things i've learned from having an <span style="background-color: #fce5cd;"><a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/NightlyDoodles?ref=si_shop" target="_blank">Etsy Shop</a></span>...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-fz7NQHsXCy8/U2vObXd6-EI/AAAAAAAAGXw/Gq4Yxe2mpbU/s1600/betsy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-fz7NQHsXCy8/U2vObXd6-EI/AAAAAAAAGXw/Gq4Yxe2mpbU/s1600/betsy.jpg" height="230" width="320" /></a></div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">1)</span><span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">While getting ready to create an <span style="background-color: white;">Etsy shop</span>, look around a lot to see how you want to format your shop, what way you want to photos to look and your descriptions.</span><span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">2) Make sure you <span style="background-color: #d9ead3;">really</span> like your name, b/c it's a PAIN in the A word when you want to change it! </span><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">Trustttt me!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">3) Try to <span style="background-color: #d9d2e9;">plan everything</span> out ahead of time so you have an idea of what you would like to sell, how you would like to display your pretty thing, and how much you would like to charge.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-zr2nfvvixdo/U2vF1FzE97I/AAAAAAAAGXM/KU6r5aU9-_c/s1600/10253795_10152464337229273_8829461547078369641_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-zr2nfvvixdo/U2vF1FzE97I/AAAAAAAAGXM/KU6r5aU9-_c/s1600/10253795_10152464337229273_8829461547078369641_n.jpg" height="400" width="400" /></a></div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">4) Keep your photos the same. You want it to look like a nice little cohesive shop so it looks nicer when all your photos are similarly shown.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">5) Understand that you'll most likely find a better or more attractive way to do something <span style="background-color: #d9d2e9;">AFTER</span> you open your Etsy shop and you'll have to kind of start over. BREATHEEE, it's going to be okay!! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">^My photos USED to look like this^</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Q1H8twr_XhA/U2vL5S42uNI/AAAAAAAAGXk/-vQoAIgwVUU/s1600/LAcard.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Q1H8twr_XhA/U2vL5S42uNI/AAAAAAAAGXk/-vQoAIgwVUU/s1600/LAcard.jpg" height="640" width="640" /></a></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">^ Now they look like this ^ </span></div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">6) This one i'm TERRIBLE at, but <span style="background-color: #f4cccc;">consistently</span> add new items. If you have the time, plan ahead and do a bunch of drafts and add them little by little.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">7) Don't spend too much time looking at others pages. Don't compare yourself to other sellers. Everyone's journey is different. Some faster, some slower. Just do your thannng and people will be drawn to you!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">8)And a piggy back off number 6, try to figure out <span style="background-color: #ead1dc;">YOUR</span> style and work with that. If i spent hours agonizing, trying to make my images look really modern and clean thats not me. That doesn't fit my brand.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">9) <span style="background-color: #f4cccc;">Don't</span> <span style="background-color: #fce5cd;">COPY.</span> <span style="background-color: #fff2cc;">EVER.</span> It's ridiculous that i even have you say this, but it happens SOOOO often. Here's a good post from my <a href="http://www.goodreads.com/author_blog_posts/5100056-on-copying" target="_blank">Kelly Rae Roberts</a> about whats okay and whats NOT okay.</span></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">10)It's rare that people will just 'find you'. You have to promote yourself. Get a twitter and Instagram and <span style="background-color: #d9ead3;">be consistent</span> there too so people get to know you. People like buying form REAL people. Often they buy things because they connect with you and your story.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">11) Use <span style="background-color: #d9d2e9;">ALL</span> the tags they allow you to use. Try to research what others are using. Perhaps that key word will lead people to find you in search. [i am <span style="background-color: #fff2cc;">NO PRO</span> by any means in this area! SEO seems very complicated to me! lol]</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">Phew!! There are MANY more, these are just the first <strike>10</strike> 11 that seemed most important! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">Good luck friends!!!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">I have faith you're going to have a <span style="background-color: #ead1dc;">STELLAR</span> Etsy shop in NO time!!</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">I would love for you to contribute! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">You could write [and/or doodle] during any of the weeks you feel compassionate towards! If you don't have a particular week you'd like to contribute to, i'll assign you a random week, but if you have the doodle [and/or writing] done before then, that would be amazing! I'm super open to anything you would like to write or draw about as long as it's encouraging - and if you have a story or something to share about your teenage years, that would be a splendid edition!!!!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">Since any wonderful thing you draw or write will be SUPER inspiring, i truly believe that if you want to do something about 'body image' but aren't free to blog before or during "Body Image" week that it would STILL be extremely valuable content even if it's posted during a different week! </span></div>
