mac&aris: a blog by tracy larish: Guess who is back?

Me!

Yes, I know... I've been DEFINITELY slacking. With good reason though! We had our baby boy! :) His name is Maxxim Zackery & he was born on October 24, 2011. Literally 100% of my time & attention has been with Maxxim & I couldn't be happier! I am now a stay-at-home-mom. This gives me the opportunity to really get back into my business & focus on what I enjoy doing thoroughly. While at the same time, raising my sweet itty bitty.

I've been thinking a lot lately, & I decided to stop asking myself "what if". Nothing will ever get accomplished & your dreams will never come true unless you act on it. Sometimes you have to take risks in order to get what you want out of life. It always seems weary at first, but in the end, your outcome will be worth any worries you may have had. You can't just sit back & tell yourself, "I wish I was doing this or that". Just do it! There's nothing more thrilling to me than to live out my dream of being a handbag designer! Things might be slow for you in the beginning, but never give up your dream! It will pay off.

Just thought I'd share with you a few different bags I've completed. They are NOT for sale just yet. I'm designing & creating a whole bunch of ready-made bags. Which means, no custom orders will be accepted for the time being. It's a little difficult to do a custom order for someone when there has to be some sort of timeline for when it'll be done. And with my little mister, I never know how long it will take me. Making ready-made bags ahead of time gives me the chance to work at my own pace. So look at it as a store... if you like it, buy it! :)

Here we go!
