j.c.grace designs has been my baby for about 4 years now and well, It's time for me to give her up not because I don't love her but because I love my husband and kids more.
I made a deal with my husband when we had our second child that I would stay home with the kids until they were old enough to be in school full time then, I would go back to doing what I love which is Make-up. Well, my time is almost up as my little princess will be in school full time in about a year so I need to start refocusing myself on make-up trends and get re-acquainted with with my first love which leaves j.c.grace out and make-up in.
I'm feeling almost relieved because I was overwhelmed with orders...I know, I know I should be happy about that but, when you have 3 kids and a husband being ignored for the sake of business it really isn't right. j.c.grace designs was not suppose to take over my whole life and become my full-time job. It was just suppose to help out financially and always take a back seat to family.
Saying goodbye is bittersweet but, it is the right thing to do. I haven't decided what this means for j.c.grace girls as of yet because well, there are so many different aspects of this blog that have nothing to do with j.c.grace designs. I would love to start a Make-up blog but, as of right now I already have this blog and my personal blog A day in the life of j.c.grace so adding a third really defeats the purpose of turning my attention toward family. I would have to give up one of these current ones and I don't know if I'm ready for that yet.
I am truly thankful to all of my great supporters and customers. j.c.grace designs became so successful because of all of you and for that I am sorry that I have to stop giving you all what you love. I do plan to sell off my supplies on Etsy and maybe a few kits so you can make some of my items yourself. Let me know if any of you would be interested in kits or supplies. As far as orders go the last of them will be mailed out on Friday 9/03/10
Thanks for everything,
former j.c.grace owner/designer
