I've finally taken the plunge and am going to have a real website. It will be AurelleDesigns.com. Its very exciting while a bit daunting at the same time :)
For hosting, I decided on going with BlueHost. They have a special for just $6.95 a month right now. I read a TON of reviews before deciding on a host and they just seemed to be the best. Last night, at 1:30 or so, I managed to mess everything up and called customer service. Not only did I get help, but I got help within 2 minutes of dialing the number. No waiting. No pressing 1, then 4, then 1 again. It was awesome!
Having a website will allow me more flexibility in showcasing my designs as well as having a shopping cart system and better previews of design. In the meantime, if you are looking for a custom wedding monogram, check out my etsy site: aurelledesigns.etsy.com.
My live launch goal is for January 1st, 2009. Wish me luck, there's lots to do!!

New Designs Added
My grandmother always says "Do something you love". For me, one of those things is graphic design. So here I am, at 2:20 in the morning, playing with fonts and colors and scale. What I have come up with is two different sets of custom wedding monograms. They can be used for stationary, invitations, favors, balloons, even stamps!
Check them out on my etsy site
aurelledesigns.etsy.com
To date, I have two sets made up. The first is the "traditional" set. Tried and true, this is similar to what I used for my wedding.
The next set is more retro, modern, mod, funky.. whatever you want to call it, it is FUN!
It is very tempting to play around with outrageous colors on these (one of them I did in orange) but I restrained myself.
If the lucky couple wanted to change the colors, it would be relatively easy - I can just see the one on the bottom done up in a fabulous celedon green!
Comments and feedback are welcome and appreciated.
