Color Loving

Hello friends!

I am BACK for the second reveal!! If you head on over to the inventory page, you will notice a shiny, new sidebar!! There will be other items here in the future, but you now have the ability to SHOP BY COLOR!! I could not be more excited about this new addition. It speaks to my heart and soul, and I think it will be incredibly helpful to you lovelies with a set color scheme in mind.

You should know that I am an artist. I graduated with a degree in Illustration, and this is something that will always be inherent in all that I do. I see color everywhere, and I never met a color I didn't like.

More on that later...but I hope you enjoy this new feature!

It's Finally Here!!

Tonight I'm feeling grateful, satisfied, relieved, joyous and so incredibly proud. My new logo is finally here!!! It has been months of late nights, back and forth with friends over the most detailed and meticulous of edits. I think I've drawn hundreds of versions of the new re:find Joy logo, but what I have looking back at me now makes me so incredibly happy I could cry.

My emotions are running high and my nerves are afire this evening, but the new re:find Joy is here to stay. I do hope you like her. She's a quiet beauty, bursting with joy and creativity, ready for whatever the world has waiting for her.

I'm going to let her settle in for the evening, but I will be back tomorrow! I have even more waiting in the wings to reveal, so make sure you check back in. There are some pretty pretty changes happening!

Thank you friends.

Slimming Down

As I move forward with re:find Joy, things are slimming down a bit. I want to showcase what I'm passionate about, and FOCUS on those things that I know I can provide with the utmost attention to detail. 

The first thing you'll notice is that I've trimmed down my pages, in order to better serve you. I don't want there to be any questions about what you're here for, or what I'm here to do. You can read about my adventures here on the blog, check out my latest inventory and services, and of course, learn more about me if you'd like. But all other gizmos and gadgets have been streamlined, so that you can have a better experience.

The inventory page will be getting a little update in the very near future, one that I am oh-so-excited about!! I think you'll love it too. I will reveal more as the time comes, but trust that I am going back to my roots and celebrating who I am and what I can offer to the world. 

A new logo will be revealed VERY soon, as well as a complete roll-out of my rebrand. Thinking about it gives me butterflies, and makes me kick my feet with Joy. It's really quite amazing, and something I'm proud to have poured so much love into. 

I hope you're enjoying the changes so far!

Excuse the Mess!

Please excuse the mess while I prepare for the upcoming rebranding of re:find Joy!

I've opted for a clean slate here on the site, something that will serve as a palate cleanse for what's to come. I know that most people choose to do redesigns in one fell swoop and do a big reveal, but I hardly ever do anything the "normal" way! Things will slowly start easing into the new branding, and you will start to see little things change here and there.

re:find Joy has always been an organic process, and I don't want this site to be any different. The branding is done in my mind, and now it's time to put it all out there. Big ideas are coming! I hope you're ready!! You may or may not be surprised by the direction being taken, but rest assured, all will be explained when the time is right.

 

Thank you friends!

What's Goin On

Life is grande.

I realize more and more every day how truly lucky I am. All aspects of my life have become so saturated with love and creativity, that I'm practically exploding from ideas on a daily basis. I've been waiting for this. I knew it was coming, and that "someday" I would feel this deep connection with my work and my ideas, that I would have cohesion, craftiness, quirkiness and play all in the same place.

In this wedding industry, I have found a home. It has become my playground of sorts, and I've been so inspired by all of the talented people I have met. I know that I'm finally where I'm meant to be, that I've found what I've been longing for all this time.

In the upcoming weeks and months, re:find Joy will be getting the facelift it so deserves. I know I've mentioned before that I started this blog just as a place to express my ideas and inspiration on the web, but this space has grown to be so much more than that. It houses the world in which I thrive, my business and what has become my life's work. And with that, it deserves to look just as original and creative and beautiful as my ideas are. It deserves to be inspiring and thoughtful, creative in all the ways that I am.

I cannot wait for the day that I can unveil this grande adventure to you. It has been so much fun brainstorming and solidifying ideas! I'm creating a brand that I'm proud of, and I'm really looking forward to taking the world by storm.
