Happy 1st Birthday!

I'm so happy to announce that today marks the 1 year anniversary of the Seablanket Blog!

From the first comment on my blog, left by my dear friend Liz which read "You have no idea how happy this makes me. Now, take over the world!" I knew that I loved blogging and being a part of this community of artists. It's been a pure joy getting to know so many of you and I am confident that my love and admiration will only grow as time passes. In 2010, SB accomplished many things including opening the Seablanket Etsy Shoppe and making 100 sales in 6 months, attending Renegade Craft Fair as a handmade vendor, and posting over 65 unique DIY tutorials and I've loved every minute...
What's next for Seablanket you ask??
I've been keeping this secret for months and am so excited to finally announce to the public that I'm MOVING!!! In 2 weeks, I'll be packing up and moving myself and the Seablanket Headquarters to Portland, Oregon! Joining the city full of creative forces will be a fun adventure and I plan to document the journey and joys of working even harder to make Seablanket a known and respected brand, not just online but with a physical presence in Portland and the Northwest as well. Look forward to lots of fun DIY's and fashion posts as I embark on transforming my new post-modern home into my SB headquarters along with lots of great guest posts from creative individuals I meet along the way. I want nothing more than to meet creative people and introduce them to you. The schedule of posts may change slightly, but expect more of an inside look at some of the Seablanket creative processes as I document all the highs and lows, ins and outs. As I grow and mature as an artist and a person I expect my blog to change as well. Hopefully, most of you will enjoy all the newness.For Seablanket Handmade - expect changes. Through the recent Renegade process of creation, procrastination and limited resources, I was forced to draw the line and go with my gut instincts. Seablanket will begin integrating handmade dresses, blouses, tunics, leg-wear and fashion accessories on the Etsy Shoppe in January 2011. Custom orders and wholesale options will be available with a business agreement. I'll also be hitting the road (and the web) with small pop-up shops throughout the year in some of our most beloved vintage and handmade boutiques across the United States! If you're interested in seeing SB in your own town, please let me know or email me. Each destination will feature a new item and special one-time offers along with vintage picks and seasonal must-haves!The new year is going to kick some serious bootay and I really look forward to bringing you along for the ride. Thank you all for an incredible year! Can't wait for the next one!!! XXOO Chelsea
