Happy 4th Birthday to baci!! {And a New Release AND a Giveaway - Today ROCKS!!!}

January 2012 (seriously, how is it 2012??) marks the fourth year in business for this lovely little company I get to call my own.  Sometimes I forget how lucky I am to have a job that I love where I get to make the world a little prettier each day.  Sometimes I forget that I used to work for a bank for God's sake.  And sometimes I forget to change out of my pajamas. . . but that is neither here nor there ;o)  It's times like this - baci's 4th birthday - that remind me how great life is and how far I've come, all because of people like you!

Never in a million years did I imagine baci would become the company it is now - growing from a small, part-time custom stationery business to what is now not only a full-time custom stationery boutique, but a planning and event styling studio as well.  It's amazing where life takes you and I feel very blessed to have my husband, my sister and a very special friend by my side every step of baci's way :o)  If it wasn't for Ilario, Jami and Caroline I would have lost my mind a very long time ago!

We have a lot of amazing things planned for 2012 and we're happy you're all on this journey with us!  Stay tuned this year for awesome announcements and maybe even a new look for baci this year :o)
