THE ANASTASIA COLLECTION
We create digital vision boards (better known as desktop & mobile backgrounds) for women entrepreneurs, to add encouragement and beauty to their workspaces.
INTRODUCING the Anastasia Spring Collection
This collection includes ten individual, custom-designed desktop backgrounds, plus six coordinating mobile wallpapers (each sold separately). Perfect to put you in a positive and inspired space for the delightful months of spring.
With warmer days, pretty spring flowers, and more hours of daylight, there seems to be more hope and anticipation this time of year. Take this opportunity to put yourself and your goals at the top of your priority list. When you do this, other things will fall in place the way they should. Whether you’re working outside with a light breeze on your back, or enjoying an iced espresso in a sunny cafe, find a peaceful place to create or do what you love.
Most of all, breathe and be. Be exactly who you are!
I remember creating handmade vision boards on poster board when I was younger. (Did you do this too?) Every year I would get excited to buy my supplies, and gather all the magazines I would use to cut pictures out of.
Once mobile phones came around, I’d take pictures of my finished boards. This way, I could look at them first thing in the morning, and then right before bed.
In addition to using these pictures as desktop backgrounds, you can also use them for your computer ‘lock-screen’ slideshow (recommended!). I am a fan of using the lock-screen option on my computer. I also use several coordinating wallpapers on my phone. I started creating these years ago when I worked in a downtown office. It was one way to make me feel better at my desk all day (and it worked!).
Today, I still create custom-designed, coordinating seasonal backgrounds and wallpapers for myself, but more importantly now, for you! Regardless of where I am or what I’m working on – these backgrounds, some with inspiring or funny quotes, put me in a better mood and make me feel better. It’s a simple thing, but it works.
Tip: Save the desktop background slide(s) in one folder on your computer and then select this folder when you set up the backgrounds on your computer (under display settings). If you’re not sure how to set this up, click here for our quick tutorial. Or you can search YouTube for tutorials on setting up your desktop background slideshow and the lock-screen slideshow. Contact us if you have additional questions, we are happy to help.

Inspired WorkSpaces
If you’re looking, you can find beauty almost everywhere. I like my surroundings to feel special, cozy and beautiful. I imagine all creative entrepreneurs encounter creative-blocks from time to time. When this happens to me, I look for what we at Adoublem call Inspired WorkSpaces. I change my environment or make my current workspace more…
Direct online traffic to you
I have said for years, direct people to your blog, not only to your social media accounts. Today, this is a more common belief, but only a few years ago, many adamantly disagreed. So many people I know ditched the idea of a website, and stuck with only a Facebook page. I’ve had many conversations…
Don’t lower your expectations to please other people
How many times have you heard “this is just the way things are done”, with no one having an idea why this is? Or when you make a positive change to a company and other managers say, “They will never do it that way,” referring to employees. I learned more about this years ago when…
