coming up for air

so i came up for air after 2 really intense, exhausting, AMAZING days. jamie and i have been going non-stop. we are so thrilled by what the daily candy post has done for our brand new business. thank you for all of your kind emails and comments. sorry if i haven't replied. i am just incredibly overwhelmed. so much so, that i didn't even notice that the issue of small magazine that i worked on came out today. i really want to spend a bit of time sharing the photos with you and telling you about all of the amazing people that contributed to the shoot. i tried to post a list with links to their fantastic sites, but it didn't work and now i am crying because i am so tired and frustrated, and i really want you to see the list, but it just won't work, and i really think i just better go to sleep. i will post everything on monday. i promise. i think. yikes.

i wish every photo could have made it in, but i understand, the nice folks at small had to leave room for other people. i was getting a bit greedy. i have a ton of photos i want to show you from the shoot. i really hope i can get around to it. for now, you can just get started here.

Help, please!

I know, I know. He is just too cute. I wish he were mine, but he belongs to one of my best friends, Megan (and I guess her husband, Ryan had something to do with it, too). Actually if I could be promised a little boy like this one, I would have a baby tomorrow (well not tomorrow, but maybe 9 months from tomorrow). But I digress. I am actually writing to you for some help. I am really excited to be contributing to the fall issue of Small Magazine, and I am looking for designers to loan me some products to feature for the shoot. I am primarily looking for kids fall/winter accessories (Belts, shoes, hats, glasses, gloves, mittens, scarfs, leg warmers, etc). I think it would be a fantastic way for independent designers to get their product out. So if you have a blog and would be willing to do a post on it, or if you know a small designer that fits the bill or if you are a small designer that fits the bill, let me know. I can be contacted by email at hello@jengotch.com. Let's talk!

Oh, and I received my copies of For the Love of Light today. Jen did an amazing putting it together. So if you haven't already -- go get you one!!
