Growth my word of the year

What are some of the things that I have started doing to put my word in motion.  Well I have put it out in the universe in several blogs that I am trying to connect to several designers and bloggers. I need to finish my worksheet for my word so that my intention is in writing, this is number one on the list.  Over at For My Sweet Daughter, Shannon blogged about 52 Weeks of Blogging your Passion by Tara Gentile Editor of Scoutie Girl.  I have ordered this so that I can develop my blog and engage my readership and encourage new followers.  That is one of my plans getting my voice and my designs out there for customers as well as make connections with fellow designers and bead artists.  I have decided to join the Bead Soup Blog Party hosted my Lori Anderson, I am very excited about this, I have never done anything like it and I have followed the last two times and been so inspired by all of the wonderful designs.  I have got my thinking cap on for what I am going to send my partner from my bead stash.  One of the things from the 52 Weeks of Blogging Your Passion is you need to think up a mission statement, so I have my thinking cap on for what I want my mission statement to be.  I know one of the reasons why I design jewelry and why I like making jewelry for others is because I like people to feel good about themselves and I feel wearing something special can make them walk a little lighter on their feet and with their head held high.  Lots of things to do, the picture below is very restful for me so I am hoping it will help with my to do list.
