The new name for my tutorials store is Emerging Creatively and I am going by my married name (and no, the big day didn't happen yet, I figured we were close enough and I'll have plenty of other places to change my name):  Kimberlie Kohler. 

I'm working on a new website, too!  I'll let you know when it's ready.  (It's not even close at the moment!!)

Website Kick Start

I highly recommend anything from Tara Gentile.  Earlier this year I took an e-course from her.  She is an amazing teacher who is truly inspiring.  She wants you to succeed and you can tell.  

Everything Tara does is sure to leave you with inspiration and energy to take whatever the next step is!

This is the last time she's offering this course this year, so hurry and sign up before it's too late!  There's less than a week left to grab a seat in the last Website Kick Start of 2011.

Why commit to learning how to build a website before the end of the year?

• Because this is a skill that's going to serve you for years to come.
• Because your business deserves better than "some day."
• Because what you have isn't cutting it anymore.

Why commit to reexamining your web presence before the end of 2011?

• Because this isn't just about code & pixels, this is about reexamining the way you market your business & communicate your vision.
• Because this about you, your customer, and building a community.
• Because 2012 is going to start with a bang.

Why have others committed to Website Kick Start?

"The skills I learned in Tara's Website Kick Start course have taken me from visualizing a beautiful website to actually creating one and tweaking another to represent my custom brand.

I learned so much from her clear, accessible, fun lessons helping me to really understand the ins and outs of my site. Not to mention, the support is AMAZING. All of my questions (large and small) were answered thoroughly and in a speedy turnaround time. I HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend taking this class and taking ownership of your website!"
-- L'Erin Asantewaa

Whether this is a goal you had all year long... or one that finally looks feasible, this is your chance to get a website you love at the fraction of the cost of hiring a designer or developer.

And you keep these skills for life.

Are you ready to kick start your website? Click on, my friend, click on.

Awesome New Website!

Only click if you are ready to be addicted!

Craftig (meaning Craft is good) is a social bookmarking site. Basically, people share links to projects. It's great because everything is all just organized there for you!

I just found it and haven't posted any links yet and I haven't gotten the complete hang of it yet, but it looks amazing and I wanted to share because I know a lot of you have some great tutorial and project links to share!

New Look

Hey Guys!

I have changed the look of my blog, website and eBay store. I wanted a more simplified, unified look amongst all of these pages.

So, please check out my website, Etsy Shop, and eBay Store, too!

I feel happy with them, even though certain parts of my website are still under construction and need revised or updated or added.

I like the simplicity, it is much better than the previous design, although I did think that design was very pretty.

Please let me know what you think! (But please be nice!!)

Thanks!
Love,
Kim
