Ta Da!

What do you get when you take 1 seven month old baby,1 husband, 2 dogs, several clients, a pile of furniture in your garage, 1 magazine article written (and another in progress), a partially finished renovation, 1 day a week spent consulting and 10 minutes of blogging each day? A lady with no concept of whether she is coming or going! But amidst all of this I opened up Microsoft Publisher for the first time on Sunday night and thought to myself: "heck, how hard can it be to build one of those website thing-y s?". So excuse me if a few links are not in alignment or one or two spelling errors can be found because this may just be my first website, and I may just like it how it is. Quirks and all.

Anyways, without any further adieu welcome to whiteberryreinvented

    Oh, Holly, congratulations!!! Like always, you work fast..can't believe you got it up and running and looking so pretty already:) What an accomplishment. And it is sooo going to pay off, you are going to be amazing!!! Are you definitely sticking to all things white/gray/light or if a clients wants something different like black or blue (or insert random color here) will you do that too? Good luck, girl!!! Thanks for inspiring us:)

    It looks wonderful!! (It looks like your house, actually - same style. which isn't surprising, I suppose!)

    LOVE the furniture. If only I didn't live at the opposite corner of the continent from you - in Florida. I think the shipping would be a little high! :)

    Thank you all so much!!! To answer a few questions:
    -Don't worry about furniture in our house as these sell! I already have finished pieces that need a home for photos, etc. besides the fact that my garage is FULL of yet to be painted stuff.

    - I do any color a client likes! In fact I don't share any client pics on here or on the website just due to the fact I don't have time to keep up and stage it, but I have already done a bright red piece and am working on a black piece now.

    -The magazine is part of my exciting news, but I am not allowed to share just yet... Stay tuned.
