Busy enjoying the summer 🌞
I am often receiving messages and emails with some offers for cooperation from suppliers, appointments for coachings or workshops. Some of the events are even for free. But I just can't wrap my head around it. I would love to concentrate more on improving my designs and on my mental health right now. Just taking it slow at the moment ❤️

This is just me 😅a couple of more months of busy parenthood and I will forget any of the games that I used to play 😆

Hello from sunny Berlin 😊( it is only sunny in summer). How are you doing? We are in the middle of summer holidays and there is no kindergarten until end of month 😝
In order to entertain myself and my older daughter, we worked on a little sticker design together. Of course it had to be a unicorn 😅 I adjusted the details obviously, but the idea and 'blueprints' belong to my daughter. You can see on the pic 2 and 3 the process she went through and how she wanted the sticker to have a red background 😁
Have a great day and enjoy the last month of summer ❤

Hello everyone. I have been googling my website recently and stumbled upon a website called 'scamadvisor'. This website basically reviews all websites on the web and gives you an idea, if the website can be trusted. That is actually great, if you would like to buy something from a website that you never used before.
My website has had different rankings starting from 'safe' to 'small risk identified' in the last months. Just wanted to share, how random this score can be. My hosting is an official one, with all appropriate certificates and proper integration with PayPal etc. But this website still thinks that I am 67 out of 100 😅
Why is my website potentially identified as a 'small risk'?
1. Relatively young website (under 1 year)
2, Low traffic (no ads running, mostly organic visitors)
3. My identity is not confirmed in their system (they want me to send a copy of my ID to their site).
As a small business owner, I feel that this is really unfair. Also I know that many Shopify shops have similar issues with this ranking. And most of online shops operate with Shopify these days. Will be interesting to see, if the ranking will change after my shop officially turns 1 year :)

Here are the last 3 designs that I find interesting myself. I guess I am somewhere between gaming and cute animals 😅Do I have to decide between the two or can I just keep doing both? Say, do gamers also like cute animals or is it just me? 😂

Hello everyone. How is your summer going? It is so hot in Berlin today 🥵
I finally managed to upload my latest design - a notebook for coffee and cat lovers. You can purchase it as a spiral notebook on my website www.badshirtday.com The hardcover notebook is available on redbubble (links will be in story highlights).
Have a great day ❤

What are your top 3 emojis? Mine are 🥰👍💞
At least my emojis are cute and lovely, even though I had been through a lot recently. Trying to stay positive and get back on track 👊Happy Friday ❤

Low self-esteem is my biggest issue. Even though I am doing much better than before, I always feel that I am not good enough. Do you also feel the same sometimes?
A little reminder: you are doing better than you think, do not give up ❤

Coffee time meow 🥰😸
Last month I added more products to my Redbubble shop, including coasters, stickers and even pet blankets. Sorry, I cannot pick one product that I like the most, so here are some of my favorites😅
I am currently stuck on designing something nice and it is taking me ages to finish it. My husbands says that if I didn't struggle to make each pixel perfect, I would have had much more success 😁 Well, I guess I am just very slow but it is totally fine I think.
Have a great week ❤❤

I totally skipped my May update, but, to be honest, nothing much was going on in May :(
I'm little bit slowed down in the recent months in terms of designing and ads but I am also fine with that
The main news of May is that I will be having sessions with a job coach to help determine in which direction I should go ahead in terms of my career. Very excited to see, what will be the outcome of our sessions.
Have a great day everyone ❤

Natural born gamer girl 👱‍♀️Gaming is in my DNA 🎮
This is my latest design, you can check it on www.badshirtday.com or in my Redbubble shop. I will try to arrange proper links to my products in story highlights.
This week I am hoping to go on a short trip, so I won't be available for about a week. Thank you for your comments and likes, I appreciate that a lot ❤
Have a great day 😊

How cute are these coasters? I definitely enjoyed drawing this foodie panda eating spaghetti Bolognese 😆. This set of 4 coasters is available on Redbubble. Message me, if you need a link to this product.

Have a great day everyone 🌟

Hello, everyone. Today I would like to share a list of print on demand platforms that I use to sell my designs.
If you are also thinking about print on demand or you are already into it, read the text below.
If you are thinking of purchasing my products, feel free to drop a PM and I will help you with your choice. My main website is www.badshirtday.com , so you can start from there.
1. Spring.com - purchased web domain and integrated with Google Analytics There are many products available, but some are missing, e.g. notebooks and planners.
2. Redbubble - still figuring out, but it has a lot of potential. I also get organic views there (happens more rarely on Spring).
3. Spreadshirt - tougher to post designs, not very user-friendly. Keeping it for now but not great 😆
4. Zazzle - best results for paper products like posters, postcards or stickers.
5. Teechip - do not register there, the organic traffic is almost zero (they have only 250k views on the whole server monthly I believe).
I would also like to add Teepublic and Amazon Merch, but at the moment I am focusing building my portfolio.

Which of the platforms do you use?

Is eating pasta really unhealthy? It is probably not the best option in the long run, but eating more of whole-wheat pasta could be a good alternative. Because whole-wheat pasta contains more fiber and important nutrients, it can help you control appetite and food cravings.
At some point I tried to replace all pasta we eat at home by whole-wheat products, but it is tough. Especially if you have only picky eaters at home 😅 So far it was a total failure. Do you cook whole-wheat pasta regularly?

Have a great weekend everyone ❤

It is wise to keep in mind that neither success nor failure is ever final.
I encourage you to continue working on your goals today. If you are failing, it will not always be like this, it will for sure get better. And if you are already successful, continue moving forward. Because we can never really relax, especially will all the competition these days.
Do you agree?

Let's make it a great day and put all the effort into achieving our long-term goals 🌟
Have a nice productive Monday ❤

Live. Laugh. Lasagne.
Any lasagne lovers out there? :) I just realized, that it has been a while since we cooked it.
Have a nice day! Hope that you are all doing well.

In case you haven't done so yet.. It's time to put the winter jackets away 😅 If you are also thinking of reorganizing everything and creating more space in your apartment, click through the pictures.
I have been studying some ways to create more storage space in the apartment. But ultimately, first thing to do, before you start building new shelves and buying box organizers, is actually decluttering and removing anything you don't use.
Guess who is super late with sorting out the winter stuff 🤪
Have a great day ❤

I turn coffee into education 😎☕️
You have probably guessed by now, that I am a coffee addict :) But it feels especially nice to study with a cup of coffee. We were not allowed to drink coffee during our student years. In Germany I was shocked, how all students were carrying coffee in thermoses and even had full meals at the lectures 😅
Are you studying right now? Or you are already finished with your studies?

I love my mom more than video games 😎🕹
This design has been inspired by all lovely gamer girls, who love their moms more than playing video games 😀. It's Mother's Day soon, are you celebrating it this year?
I'm pretty bad with remembering holidays like these, maybe because I prefer to pay attention to my loved ones all year round ☺
Have a great Thursday❤

Today's inspiring quote - “Be messy and complicated and afraid and show up anyways.” by Glennon Doyle Melton. I can really relate to this as I find it hard to continue showing up and putting myself out there, if things do not look perfect.

Hello, everyone. Today I have a personal recommendation for a great page to follow - ❤

Make sure to check out her page, if you have been thinking of donating some of your business profits to charity. You can also read more about her work here
Have a great Wednesday everyone ❤

Hello, everyone. Maybe you already saw it in my stories, I was out of social media for good because of stomach bug. Our whole family was sick one by one, and it took about 3 weeks for everyone to recover 😅
Just wanted to share some life updates with you guys. My younger daughter has finally started going to daycare. Means both of our kids are going part-time to the kindergarten now.
It is still far too early to say that I finally have some time for myself or for work purposes. It is a long process of adaptation and series of sicknesses due to kindergarten germs. But I think we are getting there, first time in the last 4 years😀.
Have a great day everyone ❤

I had a LOT of fun creating this notebook :) If you know a person, who loves coffee and cats, that could be a cute present.
If you want to change something in the design or personalize it in any way, just send me a private message 🙂This product is available on Redbubble, I will link it in the stories highlight 'Redbubble'.

We have been trying to incorporate night walks recently. Just once a week, when the kids go to bed. (Someone has to stay and watch over them, of course)
I'm very glad that my husband is motivating me to do little things like these. Because in the middle of busy life with kids, we pay no attention to ourselves. We have no time to collect thoughts and reflect on our lives or situation in the world around us.
I'm blessed to have a husband, who takes charge and who motivates me to step outside of my comfort zone. Even if this just means us stepping out of the house on a Sunday night 😀

Feeling down? Sometimes it helps to have a cup of coffee and turn on some music. For me pop music works well. Which type of music should I add to this design? I was thinking of k-pop, jazz and rock (yes, I know I have a weird taste 😄).
This coffee mug is available for purchase in different colors on www.badshirtday.com in section Drinkware. You can also buy various products on Redbubble with this design. Please hit me a DM, if you are looking for something specific.

Coming out of a week of stomach bug sickness at home, I can only confirm, how important it is to eat healthy. We had to watch what we and the kids are eating and it made a HUGE difference in terms of recovery.
Swipe through the picture slide, if you want to see some basic tips for eating healthier. You can start small, every little effort matters.
