Welcome!

Welcome to the launch of our blog! Alana Kruse Creations is a small business owned and operated by Alana Kruse and Andrea Robinson. Likewise, this blog will be operated by the both of us! You can check out each of our “About Me” pages by following the hyperlinks attached to our names, and you can check out the mission statement for our business by following this hyperlink! But what we want to talk about right now is our blog.

Basically, we set up this blog so that you can get to know us: the people behind the business. We will discuss a wide range of topics on matters that are important to us, from being green to economics, equality, and art. Of course, we’ll be talking about the business itself, as well, so you’ll be able to follow our progress, growth, and whatever projects we’re currently working on. For this first month we’re just going to start out talking about Alana's art, which is a pretty centric to our business, and about owning a small business in general, and we’ll start branching out from there.

We encourage you to share your thoughts and opinions with us as we share ours on a wide range of topics. We are available on several social media outlets and encourage you to share with us on those outlets as well. Feel free to send us topics you would like to see on our blog, whether it be about our art and what processes we use, a topic that's trending, or business related news.

We plan on getting out one post a week, on every Thursday. We will have special features for holidays, artists, and guest bloggers at intermittent intervals through out the year. But you can definitely plan on hearing from us at least once a week.

We want to thank anyone who is reading this now. Starting anything new, whether it be a business or a blog, can be a really slow process sometimes, and it may take us a while to start building an audience. So thank you for being here and for supporting us. We really hope you stick around and watch us grow and interact with us as a part of our little community. Signup by email to get notifications about our blog so that you never miss a post. :-)

As a way to thank those of you who are here,  We've created this code for you to use in our Etsy shop to get 40% off any item $10 or more from now until January 31: THANKYOU2015.

Thank you!
