A word for the year...

Many people make New Year's Resolutions each year, and yes, I was one of those people too. I would have these great goals and then a few weeks into the new year, I would just stop. Why do we do that?

This year instead of a resolution, I decided to focus on a word (or phrase) for the year.

I've come up with many words: peace, stressless, love, exercise, etc...but the word I decided on is (insert drum roll here)....

:: ENJOY! ::

It's a new year...welcome 2010...

...it's so nice to finally meet you!

Life just keeps happening....

But I'm back and next week the shop will be updated with new yarn.

I'm also having a sale....
Until December 31, 2009 everything in the shop is 20% off.

Stock up on yarn for your knitting friends and family. I will be happy to add a special gift tag and mail the package directly to your friends and family at no additional cost.

Have a great Thursday!

The Shop Is Open!!

I opened The Jade Door shop on etsy.com last night.
Here are a few things you may find...

The How and the Why....

Dying yarn and creating different colors is what I love. Because my love for knitting, dying and color, let me introduce to you....The Jade Door.

Having my own small business has been a dream for a few years. While I've been thinking about this plan for a while, I finally put it in motion about 6 months ago.

Soon you will be able to shop at my etsy shop for all of my latest creations. First I need to keep in mind that I should charge the battery to the camera...mmmmm. Okay, that's on my check list.

Come back soon!
