I have chosen not to use any AI art for my printables, so I have gotten to know artists I can trust in this area. Reasonably-priced and straightforward commercial licensing is also important to me. Here are some of my favs--many that I've been working with for several years.

Clipart that doesn't fall into the watercolor or fashion style (e.g. doodles, black and white line art, flat vector art, etc.). Some of this was “drawn” within a vector program like Adobe Illustrator, so it might mention “AI" and be referring to that. These are the things you have to learn as you research. 😁

Since I have chosen not to use AI art in my printables, I have gotten to know some shops that I can rely on for hand-drawn, high quality art and customer service. I'm not sure of the technical term for this style, but it's often called fashion art since it resembles clothing sketches.

I personally love getting gifts that aren't going to take up lots of space in the long run. Gifts I can consume or that can be incorporated into daily life are always appreciated. Here are some ideas.

Many of my customers are activities coordinators for assisted living and senior centers. I have learned a bit about the industry and patients with dementia.

Ways to have a smooth, enjoyable holiday season! Soak it up, because it's over so fast.

I'm a gifter, and so is my good friend. Over the years we've exchanged lots of gifts, so I have plenty of ideas of fun and cool stuff for every season. Here are some autumn and Halloween ideas for building a care package, gift basket, or just sending one gift over to a loved one.

Things I've purchased that I've been really glad about. Household, games, etc.

I'm an Austen fan and recently did some research and found cool stuff that's either in Regency style or actually from that time period.

I read mostly suspense and women's fiction with some other stuff thrown in. Here are some books that I really enjoyed over the past several years. I mostly listen to audiobooks so these likely have an audio version and may have notes about that. 📚🎧

Do yourself a favor and check some of these out. There's so much fascinating info and talented documentary creators.

My love letter to the best food. Here are some of my favs that I've had over the years. If you're a fan, give them a try!

Super sweet decor I've come across--no particular theme here, just stuff that's adorable. Weddings, showers, etc.

Vibrant theme for July/summer bridal showers with a patriotic twist. I Do BBQ, Let Freedom Ring, She's a Firecracker, etc. USA military and patriotic holidays.

Some cute ideas for a cherry-themed party. 🍒 Birthday, bridal shower, baby shower.

This theme is still going strong. French pastries, dreamy florals, La Vie en Rose.

This theme is a great option for mixing beach and a touch of carnival. I love the pastel colors and the inclusion of stuff like carousel horses and cotton candy, while still being beachy. Such a great blend.

It's like the Derby of fall: a time for peeps of all ages to celebrate and attend festivals without the complications of holidays. 😁 Also a fun classroom topic of study for Germany/etc.

Fun supplies for a pool party--decor, games, food... 🏊🏻‍♀️

Just finished some AZ projects, so I must celebrate with some of the highlights.

If you dig a little, there are some fun things in the Crossroads of America. 😄 Get to know this state and find some things to do, gifts, and interesting info.
