It’s that time again… time to reflect on the past year and review my goals for this next year. I have always loved selling apparel, and will still sell the swimwear and tote bags that i have always sold on the http://www.brookeboutique.com site.

   However, as i posted in some past blogs, i decided to pull the gift and other stuff off of Brooke Boutique,and do a new website http://www.theblingthing.com ,and hey while i am  at it, why not open a retail store?lol

   So that is what i did! I opened TBT(The Bling Thing) in downtown Saline, in October of this year. I love it! I have been planning this store since  i was 8 years old. The website by the same name is now ready,and we are loading it as fast as we can.

I have always had an accessory store on my wish list, but did i think i would open a retail store in 2009? NO WAY! All i can say is that i was open to a new adventure, i knew i would have to continue to make my own job(no jobs in Michigan),and i have never seen a store even close to what i have at TBT.

So, when you are reviewing your resolutions for the year, you don’t have to make them specific. Open your heart, your ears,and your eyes. You never know… you may be living your own Bling Thing!

We love color here at BrookeBoutique.com. It makes me smile to come into a room that is open, warm, and cheerful. We have such cold winters here in Michigan, that anything we can do to cheer up a room, a package, or an order is all good.

Recently, i was doing some things to my new house to make it feel like my space. A simple and inexpensive way to put a stamp on your space is to paint the front door.

Now, i know that not everyone will agree with my color choice,but you can all agree that it is different,unique,and if it doesn’t make you smile it will at least make you pause.Here is the old door-

The New limealicious front door

That’s how we roll!
