another public vs. private matter... ;)

Happy Friday!  It's been a couple of weeks since I announced my new public Facebook page and completed the giant friend purge of 2014. ;) Everyone has been super supportive of it, and I'm very appreciative of that!  In addition to this, I have decided to start a new public Instagram account as well.  I've long wanted to have a public Instagram account - a private one means that nobody but my followers can see my hashtags, which isn't idea when you are trying to promote a company like my design teams. It means I can't enter contests. It means I frequently turn people away, which I feel bad about.  My new account will basically feature everything the private one does with the exception of all the family photos...and ANYONE can follow it. Hooray!  If you follow me on Instagram, and we don't actually know each other, I would politely ask to you please follow my new account and unfollow my private account. If we know each other, feel free to like both!! ;) In a week or so, I may go in and start blocking people who I don't know. I feel like a jerk doing that, but it's just something I've had on my my mind for awhile. It's come to the point where I really do have two "social lives" - and I hope you understand my need for privacy. I am thankful to everyone for following me and sticking with me through these changes!!  And...do you see that photo over there? That's the new Gossamer Blue On My Desk line, which happens to be sitting on MY desk right now.  Lucky me! :)  Have a great weekend!
