Hello dear friends ♥ I have some very exciting news! ♥♥
For those of you who follow my blog regularly you will know that it became
a kind of "open secret" that I had my ♥ set on making the Prima team!
For me it's a personal/professional goal I set myself some years back
actually but as the years progressed so did my determination & focus.
Last year I was so honoured to be selected for a Guest Designer
application}. As a word of encouragement for any wannabee
It is certainly not easy & does require tenacity & consistency,
but if you want something badly enough & set your mind to
working for it then I believe that there's a really good chance
of success!! For me, living in South Africa, is always a
disadvantage for international applications, due obviously
to the high cost of postage & the wait for parcels to arrive,
but, even if you are in a similar situation to me as an
"international" Prima are known for always including
internationals in their team so keep believing!!
I think I am correct in saying that I am the first African EVER
to have made the team & that feels pretty darn great :)
***My apologies to all my friends for dodging the Prima questions
these last couple of weeks but I had to keep this secret even
though I was busting to tell you all!!***
