My Work Space


OK, I lied. This is technically not my work space, but a carefully set up example of what it might look like if I worked off of my kitchen counter...


Truth is, I don't really have a desk. I chill on my futon at home with my laptop where it was created to be... my lap. I do have my calendar, notebook, and coffee mug close by at all times, but they don't always look nicely put together like this.


Can you blame me for wanting to have a decent backdrop for my new business cards? :)


What do you think? This is my first batch of business cards I've ever ordered. I'm not sure what took me so long - I've been meaning to for months now. I ordered the Luxe cards through Moo.com which I think was a great decision - they were wonderful start to finish! I'm loving how thick they are - no one's gonna bend these babies ;)

Oh, and yes that's my real phone number... just don't be a stalker, mmmk?

Have you ordered your first batch of biz cards yet?

P.S. If you're in need of design services for your blog, business, or brand - please reach out to me or have a look at my portfolio - I have affordable options and would love to help!

  1. I am SO IN LOVE with your business cards. I really have been thinking about getting some. Do you hand them out often? I get asked about my blog constantly, but I can't ever tell if it's real interest or just asking about my hobby.

  8. I love the Moo cards! I got some mini moo ones when they had a klout perk and I got TONS of compliments when I went to my first blog conference! Also I will most definitely be recommending you for blog design - I have had a lot of emails lately asking me if I still did it and I have to decline!

  9. I love the new cards - but I was distracted by that totally awesome calendar, where is that from? I love anything in a weekly/monthly layout

  10. I had to order my last batch of business cards in a hurry and I went through Moo...absolutely loved their service (I've ordered from them in NZ and in the UK and both times have been great). I really love what you've done with yours! It feels SO good handing out your cards. I know in this business you don't get the opportunity TONS because, as you said, there's a lot of working on the futon time. I found myself signing up for a bunch of events this week just so I'd have an excuse. ;)

  13. I'm glad I'm not the only one that blogs on the couch. Bloggers always post about their offices and I'm over here with my laptop and planner on my lap. Now I know I'm not alone.

    I really like your business cards. The design really goes with your blog. I hate business cards that don't "match"

  14. I love them, they're perfect! Great workspace too!!!

  15. Love those cards!!! I need to order business cards asap, but I can't decide what I want them to look like just yet. So I wait.
    I frequently blog from my comfy bed (or also the kitchen counter) with laptop in hand, and I also have that notebook from Target. It's my fav :)

  16. Yay for you! I love your business cards and love that the colors match your Blog :)

  17. Love it! I don't think those "real office spaces" that you see on Pinterest are actually real anyway. I have a desk, but I always like working from my couch too. And those business cards are adorable! Love it ;)

  19. Oh I love Moo! I have some cute half-size business cards from them right now for my knitting shop. I like that you can choose as many fronts as you want (I have 5 different photos of my hats being modeled, for example - 20 cards each of 5 different images). I'll have to get some cards for my design business as soon as I figure out a name for it. ;P

  20. these types of posts always fascinate me. I love to know how other people work! or maybe it's just because I'm a little obsessed with office supplies.

    on that note, where did you get that calendar??? :D

    and I think that your business cards are perfect!

  21. I'm very anxious to hear how many weird calls or texts you get after this post. :p

    Seriously though, they are super cute!!

  26. I love your business cards! I also loved finding out I'm not the only one who doesn't have an "office." I sit on my couch and work! It's just so much easier, especially because I have two little one's running around!

  29. I've been meaning to order business cards- haven't got around to it yet! Bad me. I believe Emily (from Anna Delores) recommended Moo to me once upon a time. Someone did. Perhaps I should swing over there right now and check it out! Your cards are gorgeous!

  30. My workspace looks about the same. Simple and clean! I don't need business cards {yet?!} but I love that calendar. Where did you pick that up?

    ReplyDelete
  31. Where did you get the calendar? I love your business cards, you just gave me an idea do use flash cards, to cut on costs. By the way I was wondering how can I make a graphic of one of those I heart my state thingies. Take care.
