Year in Review: Reflecting on 2024 at Paula McNulty Designs
2024 Highlights
As the year comes to a close, I want to take a moment to thank you for being part of Paula McNulty Designs. As I reflect on my year in review, I can't help but think about what makes my day: sitting at my workstation in my studio, surrounded by beautiful beads and colorful clay ready to create unique and fun artisan jewelry and hair accessories. I think about how these pieces will soon become a part of your life. The thought of you opening your package, smiling as you see your new treasure, is what makes this work so special for me. Your joy is my inspiration, and it’s why I love what I do—creating meaningful, unique designs for those who truly appreciate the art of handmade.
This year has been full of creativity and growth, and I couldn’t have done it without your support.
Long Island Artisan Markets
I had the pleasure of meeting so many of you at 11 in-person markets I attended in Long Island, New York! Your compliments on my newly designed whimsical boutique-style booth warmed my heart. These markets allowed me to connect with you, hear your feedback, and find new inspiration for future designs.
