Happy December, everyone! I always feel so inspired at the beginning of the holiday season. My holiday planning begins on September 1 of every year. On this day, I make a four month work plan that covers all the things I have to do every single day until the end of the year. This kind of stay-ahead planning has helped my business to receive the most potential from the holiday season.you 

Here’s a quick holiday checklist questions to probe your good-will for the season:

–What will you be doing to thank your loyal customers?

–What will you you be doing to appreciate your employees?

–What will you be doing to help your business increase sales?

–What is one thing you will do to give back to your community?

–How will you decorate your environment and package your gifts?

Holiday season inspires me to new arts and crafts project or something that inspires my creatively. 

I can always tell Christmas is coming when I get my creative energies going. I’ve been staying up nights drawing, painting and glazing these beautiful ornaments to sell at our 12th annual Angels for the Animals fundraising month. When bought in my salon, proceeds will be donated to Pasado’s Safe Haven, Old Dog Haven, Ginger’s Pet Rescue and Precious Life Animal Sanctuary/

These ornaments are limited and now loaded up on my Artful Giving Shop You can click the SHOP tab above to view the creativity I’ve loaded for you.

I will be donating 10% of the proceeds to one of the four animal welfare organizations I support. I would love to hear what you’re planning on making this month – perhaps something for the holidays or a gift for a loved one?

PS- I will be unveiling an exciting new product in January that will get your creative juices going to step into a fulfilling and productive 2019!
