People are often unreasonable, irrational, and self-centered. Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives. Be kind anyway.
If you are successful, you will win some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies. Succeed anyway.
If you are honest and sincere, people may deceive you. Be honest and sincere anyway.
What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight. Create anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous. Be happy anyway.
The good you do today, will often be forgotten. Do good anyway.
Give the best you have, and it will never be enough. Give your best anyway.
In the final analysis, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.
-Mother Teresa

Sweet Freedom!
It's been a month since I launched SpiffyBoutiques.com and I'm loving it - not the low sales, but other things...
I love that I can just design without the pressure of a custom design. No one is telling me what colors to use, no one defining the style of the layout. It's quite Liberating!
My concern going into this new online boutique shop was that I may run out of ideas -How could I have known? Without a voice whispering in my ear - pushing me to grasp the imagination of another's desire for their website and bring it to life - I thought that perhaps I might not know where to begin.
How wrong I was!! Glad to admit it too - thrilled to embrace the challenge and just design whatever I want to.
True, I've only sold ONE template in my shop to date, but I am not worried. I've also found that I love custom designing once again for my customers. I have the freedom I needed to express myself through another avenue, therefore, allowing me to focus better on my custom design clients when they need me.
Actually, I have so many design ideas and color schemes swirling around in my head, I can't get them out fast enough - thus the new templates added nearly daily...
I've got the best of both worlds here... Now if people would just buy something :)

Got Questions about SpiffyBoutiques.com?
When visiting SpiffyBoutiques.com, you can now chat with me or ask me any questions you have LIVE!
Today I added my free Volusion chat service to my new template site. I've seen a great deal of traffic to my site in the last few weeks and want to make it as easy as possible for anyone visiting to write me a note, ask me a question, or just say "hi!".
The Free Chat software provided by Volusion is GREAT for anyone with an online business - especially if you are on the computer frequently throughout the day. You can customize your Volusion Chat graphic, and personalize your welcome and away messages too.
I love it!
Today I also added a fun, grundgy type One-of-a-Kind design to Spiffy Boutiques called Jezabelle. It's the darker side of my creative flow I think with some funky purples and teals mixed in. This design started out on a white background, as all my designs do - but felt too soft and a bit boring, so I tossed in some black and BAM! it went totally grudge.
For me, grudge looking design can be difficult to do - but this one was a breeze. I just cut loose and had some fun with the colors and textures. I think it would be a great Blog Layout, Jewelry Boutique Design or Clothing Boutique Design - but whatever you want it for, it can be yours. Just Visit www.spiffyboutiques.com
