Overcoming self doubt

posted in: Emstagram 0

September feels like a time of new beginnings – almost as much as January. There is an autumnal feeling in the air (and the promise of snuggly knits and scarves – yippee!) Most of us are back to school and work, and university will start soon. I don’t know about you, but I always find that after I’ve had a bit of a break from making, I start to worry whether I’ll be able to think of any new ideas, whether my skills will be what they were, whether I can still do it.
.
Of course, once I get started it’s always fine, but isn’t it strange how we have these conversations with ourselves. So if you’re having a bit of a wobble at the moment – whatever your age – this is for you!
.
Have a great day. Emma x

(Ps, I’ve been wondering over the summer if you guys would like any more note pictures? I have plenty of ideas – although I’m always happy for suggestions – but I don’t know if you’ve had enough of these already ? as always, there’s a link in my bio if you want to have a look at products available in my shop ??)

Goodbye August

posted in: Emstagram 0

Hands up if you can’t wait for a bit of routine again ??‍♀️
.
August was simultaneously the fastest and slowest month that ever there was. Work-wise, i had grand plans, and while I wasn’t able to check everything off my list, I achieved more than I was expecting – including this little project I was working on. I’m going to keep you guessing for a little while longer yet, as I want to wait until there are products available to buy, but I can tell you that these will be a limited number of originals (5 to be exact!) prints and cards … and something else! Be sure to sign up to my newsletter if you want to be the first to see what I’ve been up to!

Happy weekend. And happy September xxx
