...KariAnne of Thistlewood Farms. Amazing doesn’t begin to describe her. Seriously. I looked up ‘amazing’ in the thesaurus and even the words listed as synonyms don’t really cut it when it comes to KariAnne. Astonishing, amazing, fascinating, awesome, incredible, marvelous, stunning, unbelievable, wonderful… in the words of Mary Poppins, let’s just say SUPERCALIFRAGILISTICEXPIALIDOCIOUS! Yep, I think that describes KariAnne very well 🙂 (and just in case you are wondering – go to this post to see how to pronounce KariAnne’s name properly.)
Isn’t she so lovely? And just look at her amazingly cool earrings! She has a thing for great earrings – read about it here.
I met KariAnne about a year ago, right after my first camera strap was featured on a few blogs. KariAnne saw it, liked what she saw, and contacted me about making one for her. So I made her one. With a ‘W’ painted on it and a grey pleated ruffle down the center. And I started reading her blog. One post and I was hooked. This gal is FUNNY! And she takes great photos – and getting better every day with that camera if that is even possible. She has the best stories to keep you entertained along with her gorgeous photos.
And her projects! Just look at this one! You have to go over and check out how she did this.
And if the clock isn’t amazing enough for you how about this?
How cute is that?! What a great way to use an old pallet. And she tells you how to do it too! See – I told you she was amazing!
And her food posts – you really need to read them all but start with this one – it’s just the best.
You need to go read about the ‘Lee Press-On Nail Love Story‘, and ‘I’ll Go First‘ and ‘Infinity +1‘ and ‘The Silver Stamping Projects‘ and I could go on and on and on all day long.
I’m sure by now you will not be surprised to know that in just one year KariAnne’s blog grew to over 360,000 page views per month. She’s amazing – I mentioned that didn’t I? And now she has another job to add to the title ‘Blogger’. She is now a ‘Blog Consultant‘ too – a well-deserved title, and let me say it again – she is amazing at this too. If you are in the market for some advise from a blogging expert you need to start with KariAnne. Seriously. You won’t be disappointed. It won’t break your budget, and you will be getting some of the best help available to help you build your blog. And you are guaranteed to get some chuckles along the way too.
If you notice a bit of dust around the blog lately, please be patient with me – I’m implementing some changes KariAnne recommended. And since I do it myself (at this point anyhow) instead of hiring a designer it takes a bit more time to figure out all that html.
So what are you waiting for? Get over to KariAnne’s place and get on her waiting list for the next available blog consultation!
