I think it is a pretty common feeling.
What to do?
I have been running this blog for two years and I love it.
I have my up months, I have my down months, I have a love hate relationship with the whole blogging world.
One of my biggest questions is what are my goals?
I have some features that work, and some that just seem to take up more time then I am willing to give.
I have to make some changes to the blog because I need to focus on some new and beautiful endeavors.
I have been dreaming of actually being able to make money selling my line of upcycled childrens clothing. I just need to get the "balls" to do it. To stop procrastinating, set up shop, and sell.
I have been in the process of setting up an ETSY shop for about four years. I even had a few things listed, and not that it has been a miserable failure, but I never promoted anything, and hence never sold anything. You know you kind of have to promote things to sell them. (It's really the truth).
So what is going to happen. Well I will keep on blogging, focus more on tutorials, actually getting an ETSY site up and running, and living my dreams. I will actually be changing the URL, more on that to come, to reflect my new goals and the new direction everything is going.
So look forward to the changes that are coming, and be prepared to bid goodbye to the weekly upcycled awesome. I know you will miss it. If anyone is interested in taking it over, using the name, concept and idea message me or email me and we can talk.
So I will have one or two more rounds and then you will just need to stay tuned for what the future holds!
Oh and stay tuned, the first annual Project Recycled is one it's way!

Thanks for sharing Robin! I definitely feel your pain. There are many days I look at my stats and followers and just think "what's the point?". Looking forward to seeing the exciting new changes over here!
It all sounds very exciting!
I've thought about quitting blogging many times...but in the end it's a fun hobby and it helps me keep my creative juices flowing...and helps me actually finish some of my projects. You need to do whatever will help the blog fulfill your own goals and not worry about the other stuff. I'm excited to hear more about your shop when you get it open. :)
I'll miss the weekly upcycle awesome, but I totally understand. I can't wait to see the new you ;) I'm glad that you are going to keep on blogging.
Good for you for making changes that worl for you, and trying new things! Best wishes for the (exciting and scary) process of setting up shop!
Change is good and it sounds like you have a lot of good stuff ahead!
