Welcome to Stargazer Designs Blog!

In June of 2018, in preparation for San Diego comic con, I decided to paint a red faux leather jacket I found online into a Spider-man jacket, copying the Spider-man Stark suit design from the 2017 Tom Holland film. When I posted the photos of the completed designs, a friend commented suggesting I sell similar products, leading me to open my first Etsy, StargazerArtistryUS, where I sell hand painted geek themed products such as: painted jackets, wood letters, and hair bows.

Two years later in December of 2020 during the COVID shut down, my mother expressed an interest in selling hand poured candles, and so we began the creation of our very own online store, http://www.stargazerlilyboutique.com. Here we began selling candles, journals, and other uniquely designed products, creating our family owned business. But when our product catalog became too large, we realized it was time to open our third store, Stargazer Designs: An etsy store where we plan to sell our digital products as well as original art prints.

Now, working from home, I spend each day painting, reading, and following whatever movie news I can get my hands on.

What this blog is all about…

For my first blog post, I decided I should share what to expect to see on my blog. Since my first magic tree house book in the second grade, to the day I finally picked up the Harry Potter series when i was 12, reading has always been something I enjoy. Reading a variety of genres such as Sci-Fi, romance, mystery, fantasy, and more, I created this blog with the desire to share about the stories I am still discovering each week. My goal is to share book reviews of the stories that are new to me as well as recommendations for the books I have read in the past. But literature isn’t the only thing I wish to share!

Movies and fictional television are something that strengthened my love for storytelling. But something I’ve disliked about reviews are the often negative ones that fill sites such as rotten tomatoes and imdb. When it comes to movies, personal interests have always been a strong factor when finding a movie or show that is entertaining to you. Which is why I only plan to write about the movies that I enjoy.

The third reason I started this blog is because as I mentioned before, recently my mom and I decided to open a new etsy! On the product catalog of this website, I plan on sharing the images of the products available for purchase on our etsy, Stargazer Designs! Every product is an original design, hand drawn on my ipad, then either uploaded for download, or printed.

Thank you for being here!

Lastly I just wanted to say thank you for being here and reading my first blog post! I am so excited to share my passions and I hope you enjoy following along. If you have any recommendations for books, shows, or movies, you can send them to me using the contact page. Thanks again!
