Thank You & Goodbye


I have really enjoyed blogging and posting on Everyday Inspired, but the time has come for me to move on and grow my business in new ways.

Everyday Inspired has been my baby for 5 years and I have posted over 1500 posts. I've enjoyed sharing new ideas, ways to be inspired, and things that have been happening in my business. This blog was my job for many years.

I have recently struggled with blogging as you well know, by the lack of posts lately. It can be time consuming and coming up with content that was useful and helpful was challenging.



So with tears in my eyes this will be my last post on Everyday Inspired.

I have enjoyed sharing with each and everyone of you, reading all your blogs, and getting to know everyone in the blogging community. All of you are why I posted for so many years.

It's not a forever goodbye, I will visit your blogs from time to time and see you on social media. I will also keep Everyday Inspired live, so if you ever need any motivation or inspirations you can stop by and read your favorite post.



This year I'm on a mission to grow my jewelry design business. I am creating two new lines of jewelry, and I am going to spend a lot more time on the wholesale side of my business. I am also really excited about a new project partnering up with a local artist to start a mastermind program in the Chicago area.

I have already taken the first step in expanding my business by setting up a brand new website. Check it out and tell me what you think.

I am showcasing all three of my collections and a blog that I will post to once a week. So if you would like to keep up with what is happening with me and my business I hope that you will bookmark it and follow along. You can check out the blog at:

  3. It's mostly because of Everyday Inspired that I came to get to know you and Additions Style. You gave me inspiration with each Motivational Monday post, even when I didn't have the time to leave a blog comment.

    I had noticed a decrease in posts here, but I have been on and off with blogging this past year as well and haven't been visiting quite as often as I would have liked. While I am super sad to see you leave this blog behind, I'm very glad you'll be keeping it live - there's so much good content here! And I'm SO incredibly excited for you as you start a new adventure with your business. I've been keeping up with you via Instagram, and I will definitely follow you to WeAreHardware as well. You will always be an inspiration, no matter where you are on the net!
