I can’t believe it has taken me this long to mention it, but I am excited to say that Jeff and I have been working on a little blog redesign for the last few weeks (Luna helped too). And it’s almost ready to show off. Should be up soon. And I am looking forward to getting your feedback.
But aside from that, I really, REALLY want to do something special for you to say thanks for sticking around here on the blog (its been almost three years now), chatting with me on twitter, making me smile with your emails, and all of those wonderful things.
Just saying the words doesn’t seem like enough. So, I want to ask you…
What can I do for you that would make you smile the way you have made me smile from ear to ear over the last three years?
I have some ideas, but I thought I would ask you first. And I am really open to any ideas, so toss ‘em at me and, together, we’ll see what sticks. No idea is too big or too small.
So share your ideas below and I’ll do my very best to make it happen.
This entry is filed under blog redesign, cute dog photo, dog, luna.
ooooh, this one is probably too big…. however, it would be amazing if you could make it to Phoenix for a craft fair or some other event
I’d love to meet you and see your work
Anna commented on April 28th, 2011 at 1:19 pmHonestly? I think the thing that has the highest likelihood of getting grins out of me would be if you posted excessive amounts of photos of your cute little dog! Doggie pics never fail to make me smile
Or you can plan my wedding for me so I can stop being stressed out in the first place. But posting dog pictures is probably easier…

Hey Anna. Well, if I am ever in Phoenix, I would love to meet up.

Brittni, this isn’t a suggestion but your dog is the cutest! Love her. Excited for the redesign. And a big congrats on the {almost} 3 years of papernstitch. Cheers to many, many more!

Do a week of Giveaways
Tequila b. commented on April 28th, 2011 at 4:22 pmI like your thinking Tequila.
papernstitch commented on April 28th, 2011 at 4:35 pmI think it would be cool if you could share some cool downloads for everybody to enjoy. Maybe some bookmarks/wallpapers, something like that:)
Hannah Moore commented on April 28th, 2011 at 5:10 pmHannah Moore recently posted..I wonder if there are still people living in bomb shelters because they think the world ended with the year 2000- and if so- would that be a good life style choice for me
Love that idea Hannah. Thanks for your thoughts!

Hi Brittni,
Sarah commented on April 28th, 2011 at 6:35 pmI love reading your blog – every post! but the thing I love reading the most is inspiring DIYs! Maybe you could post us a DIY of some kind of a gift that we can then make and pass on to people we are grateful for! Like a chain of gratitude
Hi Sarah. Thank you. I absolutely love your idea. Really, REALLY love it! My mind is churning with ideas now, but if you think of any specific “gift” you’d like to learn how to make just let me know.

I agree with Sarah.
I just came across your blog about 2 weeks ago. I love all the things you post! I’m excited to see your new blog redesign. 
Michelle commented on May 1st, 2011 at 2:40 pmThanks Michelle.
papernstitch commented on May 1st, 2011 at 6:29 pmLove reading your blog and I am interested in seeing the re-design. When you did this last re-design it took me a couple of days to get used to it but I thought it was really well done so I am really curious for the next step!
Viviana commented on May 1st, 2011 at 9:43 pmoh i can’t wait to see the new blog design. that’s a tough task, right?! there’s actually nothing you must do to make me happy. i’m always happy stopping by your blog and read about the wonderful things you write. you’re already doing enough for us

Aw, thanks Lou and Viviana.
papernstitch commented on May 3rd, 2011 at 10:46 amAww! Cute photo of you and Luna.
I think your photography is amazing. A post of your photography tips/tips for your readers and potential clients who need help with product photography would be useful. And perhaps some easy post-production tips, too!

Thanks Van. I do have an article that lists my top ten tips for photography here: http://papernstitchblog.com/2010/06/21/top-ten-tips-for-better-product-photography/
papernstitch commented on May 4th, 2011 at 11:56 pmHi Brittni!
I’ve been away for a while but was excited to see this post just now about your blog redesign. Whatever you and Jeff come up with is going to be awesome! You are so thoughtful to think of your readers in this way. I like Sarah’s idea of posting a nifty DIY; and pics of cute fuzzy things are always a plus too! 
Mai commented on May 9th, 2011 at 7:09 pmThank you Mai! I am working on getting these ideas fleshed out to bring them to everyone as soon as possible. I really appreciate your feedback and kind words (which always make me smile).
