With the holidays coming up and lots of lovely family time planned, vacations to look forward to, and shopping to do it’s time to start thinking about how to take a break from blogging and how to do it without losing your readers! 1. Schedule new content ahead of time. This is the method I […]
what is your creative space?
Christine Kerr, my lovely instructor over at The Wedding and Events Institute, recently asked me if I’d like to participate in a series she’s doing on her personal blog Scarlet Room. The series involves taking snapshots of “the creative spaces people like yourself work from. This could be an office, a desk tucked away in a […]
13 blogging do’s and don’ts
I often get emails from new bloggers and vendors that I work with asking questions about blogging and I love it! Blogging is clearly a passion of mine and now that Burnett’s Boards is over a year old, and I’ve learned plenty of lessons the hard way – I’d love to share some do’s and […]

And today while you’re reading […]
