Athena Says

I was hoping to not have to do this, but I will be taking a bit of a sabbatical from the blog world.  Just when I thought I would be able to dedicate more time to it, things have changed - life is so unexpected.  I can assure you that everything is fine and I will be peeking in to my favorite reads on the left-hand side from time to time.  So be well and have a wonderful 2008 - if and when I am able to make a return in the near future - it will be with a bang!

I just wanted to give my readers a quick update and apologize for not being around much.  I have been a bit overwhelmed as of late and made the difficult decision to close down Juniper Design & Ink as of 20 December.  I simply had too many balls in the air and something had to give.  I want to thank all of you who have supported my little store over the last two years - it was a truly wonderful ride.  And on that note, all jewelry in the shop is up to 40% off - so shop before the 20th!

I truly hope that my new direction will allow more time for Athena Says in the coming year - it is a passion of mine and being a part of the online design community is very important to me.  So stay tuned... and I have a wonderful, exciting new collaboration to announce in the coming weeks - it couples two of my greatest passions and it allows me play with a dear friend - I am so excited to share the news... soon!
