How bizzare but true! I'm going to make some resolutions to devote more time to my blog and since this coincides with the Trick or Treat holiday... naturally it must be a Halloween Resolution...right? Well, not exactly but I am not waiting until New Year's to devote more time to my beloved blog. After all, I am paying for the space, may as well use it...even if I'm the only one reading it.
First... I'm excited about all the stores that I will be traveling to in 2010. I need to share a little bit about my teaching passion. Several years ago (or 4 to be exact) I taught at my local scrapbook store. I enjoyed every class that I designed and meeting all the wonderful scrappers who took classes from me. There's something about being able to share my passions with fellow scrappers who 'get-it' that just energizes me. During my hiatus from teaching, I kept thinking about how I wanted to get involved in teaching again and it occurred to me that I should reach out to stores across the country and make it happen. I honestly don't really considered myself HIGHLY ambitious but there are some areas of my life that if I really want something bad enough... I push to make it happen. So. That's what I did.
Here is what my schedule looks like right now:
January 22-24; Scrapbook Island in San Jose', CA
January 28th or 29th (still finalizing the possibility of this one) A to Z Scrapbooking in Los Angeles, CA
Feb. 27th; Scrappy Chic in Livonia, MI
March 13; Helen's Scrapbook Studio; Hampstead, NC
April 9-10; Memory Lane; Quakertown, PA
April 16-17; Scrappin Creations; Columbia, SC
I'm discussing the possibility of coming to The Keepsake Element in Bloomington, IL, Right at Home in North Attleboro, MA and Great Scraps in Millersville, MD (all of these stores are seriously considering having me come)
If you know of a store in your area that you think would be perfect for a guest teacher like me, please email me at sherrysteveson@gmail.com and let me know.
I hope I get to meet a few of you at these stores throughout the country.
I still plan to pursue my passion of photography but until that business is self-sustaining, I plan to travel and teach.
So watch for updates from me here on all things related to my traveling and things on the homefront! I promise to be more exciting than this post, ultimately!
