Wow, you guys. I am in awe over here from the amount of love you all showed to me regarding the direction my blog is going. You are all so supportive, and you have no idea how much that means to me.

My husband and I have been talking a lot these past few days about this blog, and what it has done for me and my family. It helped bring me out of the slump of having difficulty conceiving...It helped me to be strong and to feel important (for lack of better word?)...And, it has helped mold me into who I am today.  As weird as that sounds.

So, as you can imagine, I am having a hard time giving it up. Receiving emails about people wanting to buy this place really made me feel sad. Which, I wasn't expecting. I thought for sure I would feel a huge wave of relief once I started getting people interested in calling this site their own.

It turns out, I'm not ready to give up my blog baby yet.
BUT. I am also not about to give up precious time with my real life baby.

So...I've come to a conclusion!

I know a lot of you aren't going to like it. I know I'll probably lose some precious readers. BUT! I know this is the right thing for me, my family, and my blog.

Are you ready for it?
One word.

MERGER.

Yup. I'm going to be merging Oops! I Craft My Pants with my shmop blog.

I'm sure you're wondering what the heck that even means. Basically...You will still find crafts here on Oops! I Craft My Pants. They just may not be as often as they have been lately. I'm still planning on hosting "tute"-in Tuesday and Moochin' Monday...So, don't forget to link up!
In addition to crafts...You'll be seeing a few giveaways a week (and maybe even some reviews). Each giveaway will be from a small shop, so they're bound to be crafty items!
**I may have a few bigger companies host giveaways as well, but the majority will be from small shops
I know lots of readers are so not into giveaways...And, to them I am super sorry! I just love the idea of giving small shops more exposure. Plus, who doesn't love winning things?

Okay, I hope this all made sense. And, I hope you're as excited as I am. I feel like this will be the best of both worlds for me. I'll still get to nurture my blog...But, it won't consume so much of my time and energy.

I hope you understand!
