Big news to share...and give away

Hi sweet readers!

Can it really be September already?

Want to take a minute to thank you all for reading 

Designing For the Soul

and for your support. 

Wow, I have been amazed to see how many folks are joining in here with me 

and I am thrilled to say I have some kind folks now 

other than you sweet US friends

following from the Netherlands, Australia, Russia, Canada, 

the UK, Honk Kong and France.

I did license a design recently to a manufacturer in Germany 

so it's neat to see folks from Germany start to join in the fun too.

Thank you to all of the Multiple Blessings' fans and faithful followers....

you really have no idea how much it means to have your support 

and it's been a true blessing to watch this tiny, but clear dream and calling 

turn into a thriving brand.
If you are new here and would like to get a daily dose of Desiging for the Soul in your inbox Monday through Friday, you can enter your e-mail once to subscribe over to the right

So I have some big news I'd love to share with you...

I am thrilled beyond words to announce my partnership with 

creative co-op

wooooooooooooooooooooo-hooooooooooooooooooooo!
praises!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can you hear me squealing with joy from Charlotte?

I have known since July and we've been working on the line plan weekly 

but I finally have the green light to share the excitement.
Contract is signed and we're moving oh so quickly.

So we're developing a Multiple Blessings collection of 

FABULOUS products which will launch June, 2012.

Seems far away but in the design world, 

it's just around the corner.

We're making daily/weekly decisions and it'a ll so thrilling

I can hardly stand it. God is so good.

I am really over the moon honored to have been chosen by this company.

This is a dream come true to be able to design large scale items like

furniture, chairs, ottomans, clocks, mirrors, lamps, and oh so much more. 

The line plan is growing and although I can't share all the details 

I can tell you it's going to be something really special. 

It will be in many of the stores we all like to frequent which is exciting.

You can watch this short video clip to get a peek into one of the

creative co-op showrooms and hear about what they do.

Grateful, so grateful 

for this partnership and we can't wait to reveal all of the goodness as it unfolds. 

You'll have to be patient and stick around for several more months to see it all happen

but like I said above...

you faithful followers and friends seem to be kind enough 

to keep coming back and reading my jibber jabber.

This continues to be a wonderful spot for me to journal about

my design work, my faith and my family and how it all collides.

Bless you.

Bless you.

Bless you.

There will be changes in the coming months to update my website and my blog.

There may be opportunities for sponsors to advertise on Designing for the Soul as well.

If you have a business, blog, or website you'd like to advertise, let me know if you are interested

and I'll keep you posted on the guidelines for that, the cost, and when that will become available.
