Do you remember the story about the shoemakers children? They ran about barefoot because their
father was so busy making shoes for eveyone else he never had time to make shoes for his family
Like the shoemaker I have been so busy with other projects I have neglected my own home on the
web, CharissePaula.com. My 2011 New Years’ resolution is to get back to designing, while other
projects will be as time permits
I have always been a creative soul, from my first box of crayons to the first computer program I
wrote. For awhile I lost my artistic drive, caused by the actions of others. And for over two years I
have been working in another realm of the web.
After some serious soul searching I realized I am just not happy unless design is the focal point of
my life. Now designing is top priority again. It is what I love most, creating designs on functional art
that I hope you find are full of whimsy, charm and that bring you some smiles and maybe a few
giggles. Here you will find my iPad and iPhone Speck® case designs, my sandstone beverage coasters
and my ceramic ornaments. As time passes the products I produce designs for will grow, because in
case I forgot to mention it I am passionate about design.
Oh, and before I forget, there are many awesome creative people I know and their designs will also
be showcased here at CharissePaula.com. And the other thing I forgot - CharissePaula.com will also
be the home of my blog. In the past it has had some sporatic posts but right now I am in a reflective
mood which I hope will continue through 2011 and beyond
