Big News for Hello, Splendor!! (and a heartfelt confession)

I’ve got big news for Hello, Splendor!!

As usual, I won’t spare any details in how I came to announce this news.

First off, I must tell you that this decision did not come lightly… It began with me feeling torn between three loves: my family, my business, and my blog. I really felt that just one had to give. And, by doing it ALL I felt like I was disappointing everyone. I can’t drop my family (though, the collection of diapers and dishes makes it tempting). I can’t ditch my business (though, there would be something freeing about living on the streets). So, naturally, it felt that Hello, Splendor was what had to give. I was tortured with all the friends I’ve made and all the work and love I’ve put into this little blog. It means so much to me, as does the relationships I’ve made from it. When I finally came to heartbreaking terms with shutting down my precious little blog… I just couldn’t do it. And, then it hit me…

Get some help! 

So, from that, I decided to bring on my best friend and trusted business partner, Carolina V Gentry. She’s the only person, aside from my husband, that I trust completely and that shares the same vision I have.

In the next few weeks we will be making the transition to make Hello, Splendor the official blog of Pulp Design Studios! (After all, it’s all of you that helped Pulp become so successful… I have to thank YOU for that!) 

 

There are some exciting things coming with this change:

1. You’ll see new design columns with a more editorial approach, covering all facets of interior design, fashion, and lifestyle authored by both me and Carolina. (Don’t worry, I’ll still torture you with shamelessly cute photos of Maxton from time to time.)

2. We’ll be inviting contributors on board more often to get back to that community feel that Hello, Splendor was founded on.

3. A complete redesign coming in the next couple months!

4. And, wait for it…. a PARTY to launch the re-design! 

 

I must thank you for all your support and I really hope you enjoy the new and improved Hello, Splendor… It will be a slow transition that will unfold before your eyes, just how this blog came to grow in the first place. I’m so grateful to have you all be a part of my little blog!

Now, please welcome my nearest & dearest real life friend… Carolina!!
