On Reducing Waste
It’s amusing to me how challenging waste management can be in a business that seeks to help reduce waste going into landfills…
It’s not uncommon for me to go to the store and see something really cute I want to buy, whether it’s a funny graphic tee or fun table runner, only to remember the devastating impact of the fashion industry. Some shocking statistics to keep in mind…
On Time Management and Innovation
It’s amusing to me that time is a near-infinite resource in the universe that we never seem to have enough of…
Time Management
I’ve spent a lot of time writing and rewriting this post, bouncing between—and dismissing—ideas like that well-known Days of our Lives quote (you know the one), the curious poetry of using sand as an hourglass medium, and the distorted perception of time during a “flow state.”
That is all to say: Time has been on my mind a lot lately, and here’s why.
On Inanna
It’s amusing to me that it’s taken this long to finally give a backstory on Inanna.
Since launching Inanna Designs, I have been wanting to produce something that explains who or what “Inanna” of Inanna Designs is. This story lends itself most naturally to video, but I lack the time and animation skills to complete—or, well, start—the task. Somehow, more half a year has flown by and the story remains locked in my brain. So it’s time for me to let it out before it dislodges and becomes lost, adrift in a sea of half-formed ideas and memory detritus.
On Writing a Blogletter
It’s amusing to me that I’ve given myself another project as if I don’t have enough to do.
Hello, everyone.
Welcome to (A)Musing of a Designer, the space where I’ll be adding important updates—upcoming events, new types of products, business changes, etc.—and jotting down my thoughts on being a designer and small-business owner, from the process to the struggles to the epiphanies.
