Top 10 Benefits of Blogging

10/26/2019

This week marks my nine-year Blogoversary – nine years since I began blogging!
Blogging definitely requires time and energy, but you can gain much by doing it with passion and persistence!

Below are just some of the boons I’ve experienced since beginning my blog 9 years ago!
1. Connecting with others and becoming a part of a community. ​I've been fortunate enough to communicate with many other creative people all over the world through blogging. I've also met great friends through the process of blogging! I feel especially blessed to be a part of the StencilGirl® Products community and to have spent a lot of time with StencilGirl® friends this past year!

2. Inspiring others and being inspired by others.
Becoming the StencilGirl® Products Blog/Social Media Coordinator is one dream that's come true from blogging! I love sharing inspiration and am constantly inspired by others!

3. Learning new technology. Whether it's HTML code, creating a blog button, or experimenting with my DSLR camera, I am constantly learning new technology to improve my blog.

​4. 
Creating goals: for both my blog and my life.  

5. Attaining goals. Keeping a blog keeps me accountable.
6. Creating art!

7. Researching with purpose.

8. A sense of consistency and grounding.
With the ups and downs of life, blogging remains a constant in mine. 

9. You’ll accomplish more than you ever thought you could! 

10. Blogging is something wonderful to look forward to!

Have a wonderful week and many thanks to those who have connected to me through my blog!
I feel incredibly grateful!

Ive only recently come across all this with stencils through a blog that mentioned them. Ive been hesitant to use stencils because of cost and not knowing what I can do with them. OMG!!! My eyes are opened to all the possibilities and cant wait to see whats new each week. I especially like the idea of mixed media using materials of every kind for visual and textural pieces!
