There will be a few other new items as well on Monday, but I am so tickled by how cute these precious sheep are I just had to show you! You will be able to purchase them as a trio, pick 2, or individually. </div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Have you heard about the <a href="http://fourfingerfundraiser.bigcartel.com/">Four Finger Fundraiser</a> to benefit <a href="http://www.perrodinsupplyco.etsy.com/">Perrodin Supply Co</a>? I cannot believe that I haven't told you all about this amazing fundraiser yet (silly me). I have had the privilege of working with 40 artists across the country to organize a special fundraiser to help my dear friends, Jonathan & Amber Perrodin.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2 weeks ago, Jonathan Perrodin, the sole wood worker for Perrodin Supply
Co., amputated his right index finger in a tragic woodworking accident.
In a moment, their lives changed. Now they are trying to figure out how
to move forward with their business, but the damage to Jonathan's finger
has resulted in loss of time, as well as huge medical bills. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Sxvsl9BHxr8/UTyx4BRNGPI/AAAAAAAAFIo/01-O9inkUbs/s1600/meet_perrodin.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Sxvsl9BHxr8/UTyx4BRNGPI/AAAAAAAAFIo/01-O9inkUbs/s640/meet_perrodin.jpg" width="456" /></a> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That's where we come in! In an amazing show of support, handmade artists
and makers across the states have decided to organize a fundraiser.
Beginning on <b><u>Monday, March 11th,</u></b> donated goods are being sold in an <a href="http://www.fourfingerfundraiser.bigcartel.com/">online pop up shop</a>, and all of the proceeds will be donated directly to the Perrodin family to help them during this time of uncertainty.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Artists supporting artists. The handmade community gathering together and strengthening one another. It is a beautiful thing.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-VbU-WAQO20k/UTyyLjBnYpI/AAAAAAAAFIw/QnLCXgP-cJ0/s1600/Screen+shot+2013-03-10+at+11.17.26+AM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="353" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-VbU-WAQO20k/UTyyLjBnYpI/AAAAAAAAFIw/QnLCXgP-cJ0/s400/Screen+shot+2013-03-10+at+11.17.26+AM.png" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You can go ahead and preview all of the AMAZING donated items at our pop-up shop, <a href="http://www.fourfingerfundraiser.bigcartel.com/">FourFingerFundraiser.bigcartel.com.</a> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hello again. I just got both kid's down for a nap. Nathan is out at a jam session (he loves to play the drums), and I am actually sitting. Doing nothing for a moment. I just had a lovely chat with a dear college friend, and now I am thinking about the next item to check off of the "to-do" list. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yesterday was a rough day. The day before that was a rough day. I could go through the laundry list of things that have been going wrong (including my laundry room flooding, being pulled over, losing my debit card, etc.) but instead I will tell you about a few nice things.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My friends brought us dinner last night. Just to be nice since my day had been hectic. A community of friends, customers, and artists supported me through a small squabble involving my artwork's copyright being infringed upon. The sun is shining. My pants are looser. And for a brief moment today my soul has been at peace.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Whether or not this is an artificial peace brought on my some antibiotics I am on has yet to be determined. However, I guess sometimes when everything is going wrong, all you can do is sit still.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And dream. I've always had a vision of what our life would look like at this point in our lives. Now maybe it is time for the dream to change. Or shift. Or to become portable.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My heart has been heavy for a while now. I am ready to fill lighter.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here's to springtime. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Have you ever seen a puppy Scottish terrier? I mean do yourself a favor and google the. Because I think that they are the cutest, boxiest little pups I've ever seen! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I feel like I need to catch up on dog drawings. For a while I was ahead of the game, having a few reserved in case I had a busy week. This week has been exceptionally challenging. Lots of little life obsticles to overcome. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But at least we can look at cute dog drawings, right? That has to make the day better.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Have a suggestion for a dog you would like to see in this series? Leave a comment below :)</div>

I cannot believe I have finished 8 weeks of dog illustrations! And I've had a lot of people request a corgi. So at your service, friends! Plus, don't puppy corgis look a lot like teddy bears? The CUTEST!</div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had to include this close-up of the detailing. I really love this "mosaicy circular" pattern in illustrations. It is a fun texture. I have been playing with it a lot!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Don't forget, I am posting about this project also over at the official website, <a href="http://52weeksofdogs.com/">52weeksofdogs.com</a>.</div>

It hasn't been a secret that I have been feeling down. I shared about it last week. Sunday, however, I felt a slight reprieve from my persistent state of ennui. Nathan played outside with Violet for over an hour. And towards the end of the afternoon Lucy and I went into the backyard and played with them. Well, I just snapped some photos. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I keep telling myself that this will be the last February for our family here in Arkansas. But, everyday that goes by without a campus invitation makes me second guess that. It is so hard, being on the other side of Nathan's education. He graduated. A job is supposed to be there. He has done everything right. Made the best out of so many terrible circumstances. Worked hard. Applied for the jobs. Had 1st round interviews. Now almost 6 weeks later still nothing. </div>

I have seen a few of my friends recently announce that they have received job offers, and they are moving across the country. I am genuinely happy for them. I have a lot to be thankful for. But I am ready for our ship to come in. I am ready to actually celebrate. Ready to plan. Standing still is probably the worst feeling on earth. I have to keep reminding myself that we are okay. </div>

</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Our family is healthy and my kids (as evident in these pleasant photos) are growing up and appear to be happy and in one piece. I am a planner. And without having something to look forward to, I feel like I am in a haze. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So will you hope with me, that maybe this week we will get some good news? Or even bad news. Just some news at all. </div>

I have been slowly plotting my plan to take <a href="http://www.gingiber.etsy.com/">Gingiber</a>
away from the "nursery decor" arena and approach the home wares niche.
Personally, I am a sucker for tea towels. I love BIG beautiful towels
with gorgeous illustrations. Sometimes I love a pretty towel so much I
won't even use it (hint, my <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/100992806/hey-girl-dishes-id-rather-be-doing-tea?">Dear Colleen tea towel</a> is hanging on my office wall). <i><br /></i></div>

I introduced 2 towel designs over the holidays (a <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/113248942/large-tea-towel-caribou-tea-towel-large">Caribou</a> & a <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/116522594/deer-tea-towel-large-tea-towel">Deer</a>) and they were a HUGE hit!

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hey everyone. This week I drew a dalmatian. It was my favorite dog as a child. I collected dalmatians. I had around 54 stuffed dalmatians. I shouldn't say had.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I still have them. In plastic tubs. My poor husband inherited my giant stuffed animal collection.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I digress.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Nathan had a dalmatian as a child. Something just seems so right and sweet about a spotted pup.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So I have not really updated this blog much at all, other than new product updates or promotions. I suppose I never told you all that I moved out of my home office and am now working in some leased space! It is in a safe building, is around 600 square feet, about 4 minutes from my home, and serves as a nice dumping ground for all things Gingiber.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is not really pretty. Very utilitarian. Filled with metal shelves and folding tables. We can never seem to have enough tables for work space :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The we, I am referring to, are my lovely helpers, Angela, who is now sewing all of the Gingiber pillows, and Vanessa, my shipping specialist. I have to say, I am not good with change. Or trusting other people to help me. I am not good at letting go of complete control. But these 2 gals are simply wonderful!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-LlNGC-0bwKc/URpLa1vKKMI/AAAAAAAAFBo/ireRlXp3MHo/s1600/a26fe3b6618611e2935222000a1fb825_7.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="610" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-LlNGC-0bwKc/URpLa1vKKMI/AAAAAAAAFBo/ireRlXp3MHo/s640/a26fe3b6618611e2935222000a1fb825_7.jpg" width="610" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I moved out of my house for several reasons. Gingiber had outgrown my spare bedroom. The house was always filled with Uline boxes, unshipped packages, scraps of fabric, etc. Also, I was working 100% of the time. Like in between feeding the kids and showering, I was always thinking about work. I was trying to create some boundaries in my life by separating work and life. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So now I go to my studio 3 days a week, but only for 15 hours a week. And really that is not enough time. In fact, I feel like I am even more stressed than ever. Before the move, I could simply run and do something if I had a spare 15 minutes. Now I am keeping a monstrous to-do list, finding that I am never catching up. There are still a lot of kinks to work out in order to have a smooth operation. But I know this separation is for the best.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yet, as I mentioned, I am kinda like an unfocused ball of nerves. I don't know what it is, changing business locations, my health (which never seems to be regulated), the constant stress and unknown of if we will be moving over the summer, etc. But I just haven't felt at peace.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I really don't know what it will take for me to feel content. I don't think I have ever been content. I feel like if there is a straight line to walk, I will always manage to go in a zig-zag motion. Also, the "down time" of the sales season, that fall off right after the holiday rush of crazy business, really has affected my confidence.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Which I know is silly. Because Gingiber is doing well enough. I am driving my business. Creating products that I am proud of. Nathan is finally being paid a small salary now that he is graduated. So some of the financial burden has been lifted.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But still I feel like my business and my identity have intertwined with one another. I think that I need to figure out how to love myself. Whether or not Gingiber is thriving. And loving myself is hard. Like many creatives I know, I am very hard on myself. I hold myself to this impossible standard. I am critical of myself and pick apart my own flaws. Even in times of plenty.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well, somehow this turned into an essay on "Stacie's emotions". Sorry about that. But if you will indulge me, every once and a while I like to share something that seems more real. And to be vulnerable. Often the people around me just see "Stacie, the girl who has a rocking Etsy shop" and I feel like people think that is all that I am. Or maybe that is how I feel about myself. And I am projecting it onto others.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Thanks for being here. I won't write like this too often, I promise,</div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sorry for the extra large picture of me, but I wanted to show you something I did just for fun! That's my <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/101003219/brown-bear-print-free-us-shipping">January Bear illustration</a>, printed mega large onto a very cozy American Apparel pullover. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My amazing pal <a href="http://www.tumbleweedshc.com/">Beca</a> of <a href="http://www.tumbleweedshc.com/">Tumbleweeds</a> (yeah, she & Doug makes those AMAZING veneered sunglasses) suggested back in January that she would buy like a million pullovers with my illustrations on them :) But I am not really pursuing Gingiber clothing at the moment. So I compromised and asked my amazing screenprinters at <a href="http://www.orchardstreetpress.com/">Orchard Street Press</a> to make a small run of these bear pullovers. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So now Beca and I are rocking some Gingiber clothing. You can view her rocking the Gingiber Bear Pullover <a href="http://instagram.com/p/VhXHJaGViJ/">by clicking here</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyways, I would like to get to posting more regularly over here. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thanks for stopping by!</div>

Several months ago I participated in a show at <a href="http://shindigpaperie.com/">Shindig Paperie</a> here in Fayetteville, AR. I had a very enthusiastic dog lover put the idea of drawing dog breeds into my head. She desperately wanted to see a Greyhound. She said that they are extremely underrepresented in the dog art arena. </div>
