Happy November! I’m in awe of how quickly this year has passed by, especially the past month. We’ve been here at Studio 404 for a month. I know I had a lot of goals to reach that I didn’t quite accomplish but there are  a few things that I did get to do which is great. I got some things up on the portfolio, (lots of new things added today so go check it out)  they’re all over the place but they’re mine. So this month I’m giving thanks for the past seven years and especially the past month of launching a new brand. I have so many things planned for the rest of the year and I hope I’ve been accomplishing my goal of creating good content. I’m very thankful for all of the bloggers and designers who have contributed to some of the columns and there are plenty more to come, including a very special Creative Couples feature on Monday.
As for this month’s wallpaper, reflecting on the spirit of gratitude for the month of October, I was able to play around with Homestead. I love the plaid effect of Homestead which makes me think of all of the flannel shirts I’ll be seeing in the next few months. I also had fun playing with a neat pattern and a chalkboard effect in the background.
So if you’re interested, you can download the wallpaper in the sizes below. Remember to reflect on the  things that have happened in the past eleven months and be thankful for all that you’ve accomplished.

Have a great weekend!
Oh, it’s that time already. Can’t believe Halloween is gone already (we should make it a week-long event!).
Anyway, Thanksgiving is a fantastic time of the year, too. As well as Christmas and all other holidays of the end of the year.
By the way, end of the freaking year already????
oooh i’m loving this so much!
gets me in the spirit! beautiful
have a great weekend love!
I hope you had a lovely weekend! 🙂 Thank you for your sweet words.
Perfect for November! And I’m with you – I can’t believe how quickly this year has flown by!
This year has literally come & gone. Although I’m a Summer baby, I always look forward to November & December. I love the holidays. A chance to slow down & spend time with friends and family. Now, I’m just counting down until Thanksgiving. I’m trying to EAT! lol
I’m a spring baby but the end of the year is the best. Mostly everyone is in a good mood and you spend time eating so much good food. So ready to eat LOL
I also feel like this year has just sped by. Craziness! Congrats on a month at the new site, and lovely wallpaper!!
It’s funny how we get older and busier that time just flies by us. Thank you for stopping by Dara!
Wow I can’t believe it’s November! Only two month left for 2013.
This year pass by almost too fast and so many good things happened including meeting you 🙂
I’m so thankful for all of the lovely local creatives I’ve met this year. 🙂
So fun!! I always think it’s totally fine to not finish everything on a list if you’re still proud of the things that you DID accomplish. I’m so happy to see everything you’ve been up to lately. You’ve been a busy lady!! Can’t wait for the stationary shop to open!!
Ugh same. I have an impossibly tight deadline but hopefully I can get it open. 😀
Lovely wallpaper, Angel! Definitely fitting for this month and always a great reminder to be more grateful. Hope you have a good weekend and happy November! 🙂
I hope you had a wonderful weekend Tana! 🙂
Ahh, I can’t believe November is really here! But I’m excited–especially for Thanksgiving 🙂 Love this wallpaper Angel!
