Hey ya'll! I'm Stacy! I am a Blogger, Stylist, & Designer.Unknownnoreply@blogger.comBlogger82125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3629251580224382392.post-17261476672146236362013-01-15T09:00:00.000-05:002013-01-15T09:00:09.185-05:002012: A YEAR IN REVIEW<div style="text-align: center;">
I know that the blog has been a proverbial <span style="font-size: large;">"ghost town"</span> these past couple of </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
months. The dust is just starting to settle from the holiday <span style="font-size: large;">RUSH</span> and the aftermath </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of what we can now put in the history books as <span style="font-size: large;">"Christmas 2012".</span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Our <span style="font-size: large;">little</span> company really took off this year in an amazing way, but with rapid growth</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
also comes some major <span style="font-size: large;">"growing pains"!</span> As 2012 came to a close, we realized </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
that we needed to reflect back and make some<span style="font-size: large;"> {BIG}</span> adjustments that would be </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
beneficial to us in the coming year. We did some things right, but there was {and still is}, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
room for improvement. We would have never believed back last March when we really </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
got started with this endeavor, that things would have transpired like they did. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was, {still am, & in a lot of ways always will be} a little <span style="font-size: large;">clueless </span>when it </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
came to starting, owning, and running a small business. I just dove in head first and </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
decided that I would have to figure it out along the way. You see, that is tough for an </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
OCD girl like me who likes everything planned, structured and organized. This past</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
year has brought about many sleepless nights, many an anxiety attack, lots of tears shed, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and unbelievable amounts of tedious and time consuming work. There were many times </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(and still are, I cannot lie) that I have wanted to throw in the towel and go find a </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"real" job. However, when that feeling strikes and I start on my job hunts, etc., it </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
seems that something inside of me knows that I am right where I am supposed</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to be. My head (and all that OCD logic inside of it) tell me that I probably need</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to give up, go find a job with a paycheck (boy, I sure do like nice things), I have bills</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to pay, I need to be responsible and sensible, surely this is big waste of time and whole</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
lot of hard work and how many little start ups ever make it anyway, right?!?! I have the </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
same fears as everyone else, the "what ifs", etc. It would be easier, (oh so much easier), to</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
stop worrying myself sick over this little business of mine and just go to work for some big</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
company and when the day ends at 5pm, work is over with and when the weekends or </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
vacations roll around, I can just relax and have fun and not worry for one little minute</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
about the constant, non-stop barrage of things that come with owning a small biz. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">BUT</span>.... my <span style="font-size: large;">{HEART}</span>says....<span style="font-size: large;"> "YOU CAN DO THIS"</span>, this is your</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
passion, you love lots of things about it, you feel a sense of accomplishment with </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
each little milestone, look at all your successes, you are a fighter, you <span style="font-size: large;">WILL</span> be </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
successful, you can scrap and claw your way through, and if you love what you are </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
doing then the rest will figure itself out! I truly feel that the Lord keeps bringing me right </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
back to this place. I know, as hard as I have prayed, that if it wasn't His will for me to be</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
right where I am at, that He would have already opened another door. My faith has been </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and still is being tested to the core. No one likes insecurity. This year I have tested my</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
personal boundaries, I have stepped out of the box, I have done things that a just a few </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
short months ago I didn't think that I could do. It is not all <span style="font-size: large;">pink peonies</span> {my fav} </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and <span style="font-size: large;">sparkly cupcakes</span> {another personal fav}, but is it worth it???? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I truly believe that it is! It may not be paying the bills right now, but one day it will. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Perseverance and hard work {and a boat load of prayers} will pay off just as it </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
always does and one day I will stand on the other side of this <span style="font-size: large;">mountain</span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
completely amazed that I was able to <span style="font-size: large;">make the climb! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">With that being said, I am excited to introduce one of the big changes that is taking place </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">over here at Preppy & Pink! Very soon, we will be launching "Stacy Brown Designs"! </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">After lots of thought & careful consideration, we have decided to rebrand the </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">business and we couldn't be more </span></span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">excited about it. Here is a sneak peek </span></span><br />

TRENDING: BAUBLE NECKLACES</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The Bauble Necklace</span> trend has been gaining more and more speed as </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
different companies are beginning to offer their own takes on what could become </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
an <span style="font-size: large;">{iconic}</span>accessory. It is, without a doubt, the </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">MUST HAVE</span> piece of the season! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The inspiration for all of these other designs is the <a href="http://www.jcrew.com/womens_category/jewelry/necklaces/PRDOVR~92687/92687.jsp" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: large;">J. Crew</span></a> Bauble Necklace.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Cost of the necklace: $150 </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It is made of 18 karat gold electroplated brass, and the resin beads are hand-set. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Why Spend the Money? Because, after all, it is <span style="font-size: large;">J.Crew</span>!</div>

CLASSIC WITH A TWIST</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Ever since I was a little girl, I have been <span style="font-size: large;">obsessed</span> with planning my </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">dream wedding</span>. I would look through pictures for hours on end and my </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
best friend even helped me create a desktop folder full of potential ideas. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then <span style="font-size: large;">Pinterest</span> came along, and you can probably guess how I spend my free time.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
None of my wedding ideas were ever outlandish or funky. I like to think </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of my dream wedding as how I think of my fashion sense: </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">classic with a twist</span>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will wear white, have traditional flowers, and matching bridesmaids, but there </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
are tons of little quirks to throw in, especially for the reception, to </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">personalize</span> the day and make guests feel at home.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here are some <span style="font-size: large;">{cute}</span> and <span style="font-size: large;">{fun}</span> ideas:</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.brides.com/wedding-ideas/real-weddings/2012/01/new-jersey-beach-real-wedding-clarks-landing-wedding-kristen-lev#slide=4" target="_blank"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-_0b9kIFkNbY/UC7q6D4UTGI/AAAAAAAAACk/VOk7nedg-lQ/s320/newjersey-real-wedding-spring-beach-preppy-009.jpg" width="216" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
What could be <span style="font-size: large;">{preppier}</span> than <span style="font-size: large;">navy striped</span> ribbon? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Dress up a classic and simple bouquet with a uniquely tied ribbon in </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">{preppy}</span> colors to match your wedding.</div>
<br /><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.brides.com/wedding-ideas/real-weddings/2012/04/preppy-nautical-wedding-molly-and-matthew#slide=11" target="_blank"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-My4-JF3U1h0/UC7p12ybnvI/AAAAAAAAACc/aKsLqpS_kgw/s320/preppy-nautical-wedding-ideas-011.jpg" width="216" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This couple used <span style="font-size: large;">Personalized Koozies</span> (<a href="http://www.totallyweddingkoozies.com/?_kk=c3be55d9-77d0-4eca-91e4-ef454e6e560f&_kt=8272892796&gclid=CJGG9Iv-77ECFYhM4Aod1wgAIw" target="_blank">similar</a>) for reception drinks. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The other side reads "To Have and To Hold and Keep Your Beer Cold"! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
That is a great take home item for guests to remember your <span style="font-size: large;">BIG</span> day!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.brides.com/wedding-ideas/real-weddings/2011/10/houston-real-wedding-erica-evan-garden-wedding#slide=7" target="_blank"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-jVy64ategYw/UC7tQFa6JSI/AAAAAAAAACs/eh9XVH8l-Rk/s320/ho-real-wedding-garden-colorful-relaxed-007.jpg" width="216" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Another great way to serve drinks is in traditional <span style="font-size: large;">Mason Jars.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
{I mean, we are from the <span style="font-size: large;">south</span>, right?!?!}</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Tie coordinating <span style="font-size: large;">{preppy}</span> ribbon around them to add even more </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">southern charm</span>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
One of the hardest decisions to make is what to give as favors! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Preppy & Pink</span> girls are ALL about some <span style="font-size: large;">personalization</span>, so </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
choose something important to your family & their traditions. This couple gave their </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
guests the mother of the groom's famous homemade truffles! YUMMY!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Whatever you choose to do on your big day, just remember that <span style="font-size: large;">{classic}</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">NEVER </span><span style="font-size: small;">goes out of style, there is <span style="font-size: large;">ALWAYS </span>room for one more monogram </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;">&</span><span style="font-size: small;"> you can <span style="font-size: large;">NEVER</span> have too </span><span style="font-size: small;">much </span><span style="font-size: large;">"preppy"</span><span style="font-size: small;">!</span></div>

<span>We were pinning the other day {as usual} and started noticing just how</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span> many vinyl </span><span>words and monograms are out there and the creative ways that </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span>they are being used.</span><span>These designs are absolutely </span><span>adorable, and can take the </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span>place of a headboard or traditional artwork. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span>However, most of them are very expensive, ranging from sixty to </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span>hundreds of dollars. We did some research and found The Old Barn Rescue </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span>Company. They make vinyl quotes and monograms perfect for any room </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span>in the house, for less than fifty dollars!</span></div>

I am so excited to help spread the word about this FAB new book by </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
my sweet friend, <span style="font-size: large;">Courtney Whitmore</span>! As many of you know, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Courtney is the creator of <a href="http://pizzazzerie.com/" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: large;">Pizzazzerie</span></a><span style="font-size: large;">.</span> An amazing website </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
devoted to party planning and entertaining. She has also just released</div>

her second book,<span style="font-size: large;"> </span><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Candy-Making-Kids-Courtney-Whitmore/dp/142363022X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1342573289&sr=8-1&keywords=candy+making+for+kids" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: large;">"Candy Making For Kids"</span></a><span style="font-size: large;">.</span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This book is too cute & a must have! It would make a fabulous </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
gift for kids (of all ages)! NONE of the recipes use a candy thermometer </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so the recipes are super accessible and easy for all kids. And did I mention </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
YUMMY?! It's the best gift for the holidays too (a whole chapter is </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Courtney is an amazing girl and I truly consider her my mentor.<br />

EAT ICE CREAM!<div id="yiv1681994226yui_3_2_0_21_133849670792440" style="text-align: center;">Hey ya'll! I would like to introduce you to our guest blogger today! <br />
Heather is the owner of "Pretty Southern" and is a graphic designer that does some <br />
design work for Preppy & Pink! Her little girl, Whitley Pearl, just celebrated her 2nd <br />
birthday with an Ice Cream Theme party that was TDF {to die for}. In true <br />
Preppy & Pink style, no detail was over looked! Enjoy Heather's recap of <br />
the big day below... <br />
<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><div id="yiv1681994226yui_3_2_0_21_133849670792440" style="text-align: center;">Hey guys! It is Heather! I just wanted to share a 'sneak peak' at my little girl, <br />
Whitley Pearl's second birthday party! It was a small family affair, but we still <br />
wanted it to be super sweet and special! I wasn't sure what I was going to do for a <br />
long time, but I totally loved this ice-cream truck idea! it would have been way <br />
cute to do in the summer, I really would have hired an ice-cream truck to come <br />
park for a few hours, lol! But, it was in February, and that just wasn't really ideal! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3OR8pWvaJxRCBUTTVZ5Vrrqf5MP6i9C5VmDBnDNrHlZnGySfPl3quMvsLFjIalNhyphenhyphen6VLMrmpuEmXxbmpz4rPIqoFDRNOckw3cD0fWyfvHlOqHJBMipJKcCJnzjDaPtrXkLR8-oWhp-BE/s1600/blogboard3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="261" pca="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3OR8pWvaJxRCBUTTVZ5Vrrqf5MP6i9C5VmDBnDNrHlZnGySfPl3quMvsLFjIalNhyphenhyphen6VLMrmpuEmXxbmpz4rPIqoFDRNOckw3cD0fWyfvHlOqHJBMipJKcCJnzjDaPtrXkLR8-oWhp-BE/s400/blogboard3.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div id="yiv1681994226yui_3_2_0_21_133849670792440" style="text-align: center;">So, we totally made it really fun and bright! First off, I based all of the party <br />
colors off of her outfit {By Mud-Pie} & we went from there. I wanted it to feel <br />
really young and playful. My next step was to design the invitation from scratch.<br />
...annnnd...<br />
Whitley's Ice Cream Shack was born!<br />

<div id="yiv1681994226yui_3_2_0_21_133849670792440" style="text-align: center;">We had ice-cream in mason jars, root-beer and cream-soda on hand for 'floats' <br />
and of course, polka-dot paper straws {Shop Sweet Lulu}! SweeTreats by Keri <br />
made my idea of ice-cream sundae cupcakes come alive! They were super sweet! <br />
We topped them with real cherries, and sweet pearl sprinkles...just perfect for <br />
little Whitley Pearl! My mom found the ice-cream pinatas...and she was sweet <br />
enough to hand-stitch this beautiful table-cloth for me! <br />
{...xoxo...she's the best!}<br />

</div></div><div id="yiv1681994226yui_3_2_0_21_133849670792440" style="text-align: center;">My favorite idea for the party was hand-dipping the waffle bowls in white <br />
chocolate and then topping them with the pearl sprinkles. We then used them to <br />
hold all of our ice-cream toppings...sprinkles, chocolate chips, and marshmallows! <br />
The sweetest touch was her brother hand-cut her cup-cake topper so he was <br />
super proud of his work! <br />
<br />
Hope you enjoyed your sneak peak of Whitley Pearl's Ice-Cream Shack! <br />

A SwagStamp is a 3-d engraved monogram for your shoes. It's like a shoe tattoo! They offer customization for specific HUNTER®, CONVERSE®, HAVAIANAS®, VINCE CAMUTO®, and TORY BURCH® brand shoes currently, but it says on their site that they hope to be adding new products soon!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Just get small clear cellophane bags at your local craft store {I purchased mine at Hobby Lobby}. Next, fill the bottom of bags with some crinkle paper. Add one pack of Kool Aid {available at your local grocery store} and one "silly straw" {available at WalMart in the party section} and then tie the top with some ribbon, twine, or sisal & then add the tag! </div>

Many of you may remember the "twins" baby shower that I hosted for my best friend {and styling assistant}, Courtney, last year.

</div>On Monday, when I went to pick Gracie up from school, she hopped in the car and out of nowhere immediately started telling me what her afternoon plans were going to be when she got to her Grammy's house (Grammy, of course, had no idea of what she was in for). Evidently she had been thinking about this all day and she then proceeded to tell me that she was going to set up a lemonade stand and offer lemonade and snacks to the neighbors. She was going to get a big piece of paper and write, "Gracie's Lemonade Stand with Charlee (her cousin)" on it and hang it on the front of the "stand" and when the people come, she was going to serve them lemonade and it was going to be {FREE}! I was totally digging her entrepreneurial spirit and how at the tender age of 6 she already knew how to create a business plan... until she said the word {FREE}! By this time we were at Grammy's and she jumped out of the car so proud of herself and super excited to get in the house and pitch the idea to Charlee and Grammy! I left and as I was driving back to work I chuckled to myself as I thought about her innocence and naivete and the fact that she thought that she could run a business for FREE! I, momentarily, longed to be 6 years old again when life was much "simpler", and just like that, my cell phone rang with work things that needed to be taken care of and I quickly snapped back into reality. I didn't think much else about Gracie's endeavor until I went back to pick her up later that evening. When I pulled into my mom's driveway, there G was in the front yard with her lemonade stand all set up! I got out of the car and she excitedly yelled for me to come look at what all she had done. She had drug a little white table outside, had 2 stools (one for her and one for Charlee), had a pitcher of lemonade, cups, & snacks, and had made her a sign (just like she said) and hung it on the front of her "stand". She was having a great time and was so proud of herself. I think that particular day, her and Charlee drank most of the lemonade themselves. I mean, you have to sample your product, right?!? We had to get going, so I helped her clean it all up and then we headed home. The very next day, after school, she was just as excited about her lemonade business and was super eager to set her little stand up again. The thought crossed my mind... how awesome would it be to feel as excited about my job as G felt about her lemonade stand? I wish I was still just as eager to work when things weren't producing income as I was when things were producing income! Haha! On this particular day, she had several of the neighbors stop by and she was tickled to death to serve them {FREE} lemonade! Later that night after we were home she pulled out a Ziploc bag and laid it on the counter. The bag had several dollar bills in it and some loose change. I was puzzled and asked her where she got it from and who did it belong to? She told me it was the money that she had made from her lemonade stand!!! What?!?!?!? You mean to tell me that you made money off of {FREE} lemonade?!?!? She said that when the neighbors came to get lemonade, she told them that it was {FREE} but they gave her money anyway!!! I was in total disbelief as I counted the money and realized that she had made $9.25 all from {FREE} lemonade! She was smiling from ear to ear and was so extremely proud of herself. As she was walking away to go watch one of her TV shows in another room, she was already telling me what her "business" plans were going to be for the next day! <br />
That's my girl!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">The more I thought about it, I decided that I was going to quit work and go run the lemonade stand with Gracie (if she would hire me). No, not really...but seriously, the more I thought about it the more I realized that G just might be on to something. What if we all ran our "businesses" in this manner. What if we adopted more of a "what can we do to help you" attitude, instead of a "what's in it for me" mindset. If Gracie would have charged $.25 for her lemonade, how many people do your think would have tried to get her to come down to $.20 or wouldn't have come at all? Isn't that the norm these days? However, she wanted to offer {FREE} lemonade and it was never about the money. She poured her heart and soul into her business endeavor but money was never her focus. Her focus was the happiness and satisfaction that she gained from (a) creating her own business and (b) offering a great product to others, and as a result, the money came! WOW! Couldn't we all apply this to our business lives in some way? I cannot believe that Gracie's little lemonade stand turned into a BIG life lesson for her mommy. I, like most of us, am guilty of having tunnel vision when it comes to my business. My eye is always on the prize, always crunching numbers, always trying to figure out how to make it profitable, always wanting more, always worrying, always stressing, etc. and it turns out that maybe if I would concentrate more on the parts of the business that make me happy, the reasons that I was drawn to it in the first place, that all that other "stuff" would just work itself out. Maybe, just maybe, if I turn the focus off the success of the business and turn it onto the love for the business, the glass may start to look half full instead of half empty? Ya think?<br />
Oh, to be able to see the world "through the eyes of a child" again.<br />
Thank you Gracie for that big "Ahhh-Haaa" moment! Mommy & Daddy are so proud of you! </div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3629251580224382392.post-46188966192074682322012-04-05T17:21:00.000-04:002012-06-12T23:57:00.108-04:00HAPPY EASTER TO ALL OF OUR "PEEPS"<div style="text-align: center;">
