re-branding activities - Smudged Textiles Studio :)
Things are beginning to move swiftly for the new business name. I've got this incredible logo for the new website designed by Jackie and I finally got off my duff and got everything to Holly for her to start working her magic with the new website/blog. And I've got an incredible team to help make the business extra special and grand.
Having a pretty solid online presence, I knew that re-branding would be a bear. It means that I also have to switch over all my social media names and to be honest, that's a fairly terrifying prospect. But it's underway so I wanted you to be aware of it. Here's what's new:
Facebook - My personal page is the same but I'll be deleting this page at the end of the month. I've already put into place a new page for Smudged Textiles Studio and there is a dedicated Thermofax Screen Printing page being designed as we speak.
Twitter - I've already changed my profile name to Smudged Textiles.
Etsy Shop - The shop name will change from FibraArtysta to SmudgedTextilesShop on June 13. Why not SmudgedTextilesStudio? Because Etsy shop names can only be 20 characters and SmudgedTextilesStudio is exactly 21 characters. Murphy's law, right? ;-) If you have me marked as FibraArtysta, your links will automatically update.
Pinterest - I've already changed to Smudged Textiles there as well.
Instagram - No change there, my username is still girllovespaint. (I do.)
Blog- Eventually I'll stop posting here and will only be posting over at Smudged Textiles. But it's not ready yet, we're still at the beginning of the building stage and trust me, I won't be shy when it happens about letting you know.
I'd be lying if I said all this didn't scare me a little. It's a lot of change to take on. But it's the good kind of scary because it means that everything I've always wanted to do can finally begun to be built up.
So stick with me, I don't want to loose connection with any of you. We're trying to make it as painless as possible! :)

I LOVE your new name! And I applaud your stepping beyond the fear and beginning the re-branding.
You build it & we will come! We'll follow you anywhere!
I am hooked - you are doing beautiful things in the name of creativity. The world needs it so don't stop!
I'm sticking with you. I love the new pieces in your etsy shop. Hope you keep making them. The oval on the blue one reminds me of a window or a passage into somewhere. I like art that has layers and makes me wonder.
Congratulations on the rebrand. Wishing you much success.

Good luck with the new "brand".
Thanks for these updates, Lynn. It’s good to know that you’re taking advantage the use of social media sites to promote your business. But I think it is much better if you have a separate personal account and one for your business, so that you can avoid some confusion between personal and professional activities.
