I May Start Wearing A Lot of Flannel.

Wednesday, September 10th, 2008

Well folks, through a twisty turny set of recent events I find myself the new owner of a job. Yep, a J.O.B. And even better? I like it! Of course, I may have to change my name to Mavis and grow a shemullet, but that is all in good time. I’ll try to keep my [...]

I Wish I Got Paid Just to Be Me…

Wednesday, August 20th, 2008

… but, I don’t. And chances are neither do you. It seems to work that way.
I started my business some time ago with the intention of never having to work for “the man” again. And its been great. Fun projects, cool clients. Deadlines I could cope with, the chance to learn and grow and go [...]

Dress Up Clothes: Necessity or Indulgence?

Thursday, July 17th, 2008

For a long time now I’ve toyed with starting my own clothing/sewing related business of some kind. I’ve made and sold aprons, bags and purses and am always coming up with some grand new scheme. The thing is, to really make a garment perfect and unique takes a lot of work… which I don’t have [...]

R.S. Whiteside

Thursday, July 10th, 2008

Over the past few weeks I’ve been working on a website for author R.S. Whiteside. (Ok, he may happen to be my grandpa too. But still! He’s an author!! How cool is that?) His book is on a subject that I find fascinating… the evolution of the human consciousness rather than physical, so I was [...]

These Silly Things, I Like to Dwell On…

Wednesday, July 2nd, 2008

I have two beings, one on each shoulder. No devil horns or halos, just two mini versions of me, each with some very valid, logical points. Each with their own agenda. Each yammering at me. It never ends.
I guess I should begin at the beginning.
I’ve never had a career. I’ve had a lot of ideas [...]

I am just about finished on a redesign for my business site: Valerie’s Virtual Services. I still have some cleanup to do, among other things, but its taking shape! What do you think?

Last week I wrote a little article for Pink Label Corsets… Tuley has been chosen as the personal designer for The Glamazons, who just happen to be filming a TV show for The Oxygen Network. Go check em out!

Hallo Guvnor!

Tuesday, April 15th, 2008

I’ve been a very busy bee lately. And look! I’ve been working on a redesign for Ebb N Flow! I think it looks puuuurty.
In other news, I’ve been working on what I like to call “the quilt of no hope” although, really, it will be lovely when its done. Its just going to [...]

I LOVE PINK!

Friday, April 11th, 2008

If you have a minute, go take a look at the super cool contest over at Better in Pink! Even better, enter to win (I’m giving away 300 words of proofreading and 200 words of content writing!) I’m planning on something with feathers.
