What's in a name??


I've created a lot of businesses in my short life time - some in my head and on paper, and others in real life. One of my favorite parts of getting things going is deciding on the name.

I had a business idea going through my head, and I wanted it to follow my love for the "Fairytale," so it was going to be called "Fairytale Fonts" - but I decided this wasn't perfect for a few reasons.  I'm not 100% positive what all I want to involve in this new journey, but I know I don't want to be limited in the future by the name.  So I took some time to think about what I wanted to do and what options I had for a new name, and then it hit me - August Day Designs!



The following is what I wrote as I thought through my new name, and why I felt it was PERFECT for what I'm seeing in the future, near and far.

When I think of August, I think of warm, sunny days.  I think of swimming pools and backyard barbeques with friends and family.  I think of wedding cake with cream snow cones from The Pink Snow Cone Stand.  I think of driving around with my best friends, windows rolled down and sunroof slid back.

When I think of August, I think of beautiful fields with bright yellow sunflowers.  I think of a nice breeze keeping me cool as I take a walk outside.  I think of Texas Rangers baseball games, summer camps and choir tours with the youth group, and softball tournaments.

When I think of August, I think of my favorite day ever – August 8, 2009 when I married my best friend.  And I think of getting ready to meet my sweet nephew, Tate Alan.

I love summer, and August is my favorite month of the year.

I hope to bring that bright, happy, and warm feeling out through my designs, my passions.
