Introducing Purple Pinky Promises, LLC

Hello everyone! It's been a while since I jumped on here. I have been quite busy lately. Most of my time has been consumed with changes here at Purple Pinky Promises. As of September 1st Purple Pinky Promises became an LLC and I am no longer a demonstrator for the direct sales company that I was associated with for the last 4 years. I am now officially running my own business. I learned so much during those 4 years, but most of all I cherish the friendships that were formed and because of that, it will always be one of the best decisions I ever made. I'd like to take some time to share with you about the changes that you will see. First of all, I am still teaching classes/workshops in my studio. That part will not change except for practicing social distancing for the mean time and the use of different products. So that you have the opportunity to take your creativity in the studio a step further, I will have a selection of products for sale in the retail corner of the stu...

Hot Cocoa Dispenser

How cool is this!?!! I searched high and low...Pinterest and everything you know to find a cocoa dispenser and I could only find tea dispensers. So...I tapped into my engineering skills (ha!) and created my own. This was a 3 day project and one that zapped my brain power. This is actually not my gift (creating 3D from scratch), but I think I managed well. I did note as I went along, so look for a project post on this in the days to come!

Cup of Cheer

Here in the Midwest the past couple of days we have had temperatures dip into the low 30s overnight and it appeared we might skip Fall, my favorite season, altogether. The fireplace and a warm cup of cocoa with marshmallows were definitely a comfort for those two days. This card screams cold weather and a fireplace to enjoy a cup of warm hot chocolate! It will be here before you know it!
