It has literally been pouring ALL day today. From the time I opened my eyes and even heavier now. It was a "no go" for any kind of outdoor activity, except for that moment when I carried the dog in my arms like a child, through the rain - to a portion of cover where he could and would hopefully do the necessary ablutions. He didn't. Instead, he looked at me like I was completely nuts and then ran straight back inside, lol. 

Normally, I love this kind of weather - I have said it often, but with everything unfolding in my life at the moment I admit it left me feeling somewhat emptier than usual... hollow and cold. I did however still manage to scrape it together and spend my hours in a worthwhile manner. Tonight we lit the fire and combined with the rain sheets falling outside it all hit a little harder than I thought it might - but here I am, keeping my sh!t together!

<div class="text-justify">

It has been a while since I did any design work for the print on demand sites I normally upload my work to, so today I decided get stuck into that a little. It was a good form of distraction and escape but I was not "truly" feeling very creative if I am honest, so I just decided to work through a few existing designs... most of which had previously had the season of "Fall" in mind and gave them a revamp for warmer and brighter days, as well as just a few other random creations... nothing great - but putting one foot in front of the other is always a better option than standing still. So... moving along swiftly.

# Design Days
***Getting back into the "swing" of things...***

<div class="text-justify">

When I first started designing for print on demand sites, I did a pattern called "Tangerine Dandelion". It has always been a good seller and so I thought it would be a good one to give a seasonal face lift to. The original colour combo was in all honesty not one which appeals to me personally, but I know it is popular with many others so I went ahead with it.

<div class="text-justify">

Today I spiced it up a little - or should I say "lightened" and warmed it up!" I was quite pleased with the way it turned out. Colours which work well for Spring, Summer and ALSO Autumn. Definitely a design I would incorporate into my home somewhere... and the "new" name for the face lifted collection, is...

# Cherry Polkadot Face Lift



[![work-60545315-apron (1).jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/jaynie/23uRDVkvoaRH3zePBcDRfmp3PZdvrF5ZE6Hznneky5MecMSZhgstvAsLqAu6kZ18vzxzg.jpg)](https://www.redbubble.com/shop/ap/60545315)

<div class="text-justify">

Another design which has proven particularly popular was the cherry pattern I did. I was a little off beat with this original design and actually did the leaves in a borderline blue. The first time I saw a sale go through for this design, I got really nervous haha... I started questioning my decision and the fact that the purchaser may go "why are the leaves blue" haha!!! Thankfully, that did NOT happen - not with ANY of the sales on that design. Everyone that has shared their received product has expressed how happy they are with it... yay, haha!

Anyhoo, I put some thught into "candying" it up a little - give it a little more "pop". The first time around, I was geared more at the cherries themselves - the rich red and then stepping outside the box a little with the leaves on that particular design. This time around I was thinking more about the cherry blossoms on the tree. If you have EVER seen cherry blossoms in all their GLORY on a tree, you will know what I am talking about! So, the same design in essence... but a polar opposite result!

# Ocean Retro Face Lift

<div class="text-justify">

Ok, last one on the list for this post, although I did do several other designs and revamps today... I did a design way back when which was REALLY well received. It sold mugs, socks, shower curtains haha - you name it! So... I figured, again - another good one to highlight with a fresh coat of paint so to speak. It went from retro to disco, although the genres are not unlike one another... the designs were haha!

# Disco Vibes Collection

<div class="text-justify">

So there it is... a little slice of my "design day". I enjoyed it... for the most part. Prefer designing new stuff and even though I did a little of that today, my heart was not really "in it". Currently "riding a wave" - please bear with me. ;)
