Returning to Cafecito: Life Lately, Shop Saturdays & What is Brewing
I had buttered pecan ice cream a few hours ago, and it was fantastic. The kind of simple delight that made me pause and think, “Ah, this is the vibe I’ve been missing.”
Dear Cafecito,
It’s been a little quiet around here between work, school, and life. I needed to take a break and let the silence stretch for a bit. I missed writing, but the pause was necessary. Like totally!
I’m talking about the good kind of pause, the kind that lets things simmer, settle, and fall into place. Now that I’ve returned (writing this post), I’ve been thinking a lot about the direction I’d like to take The Cafecito Diaries, both as a space for self-reflection and all things creativity.
Lately, I’ve been working more intentionally on the sticker & art shop, Clari Loves Cafecito. To maintain a healthy balance between work and play, I’ve decided to simplify the shop’s operations by opening only once a week on Saturdays from 9 am to midnight, which gives me time to enjoy it and protect my energy.
This particular shift made me realize: this newsletter doesn’t have to be either personal or creative. It can be both!
So here’s what you can expect from me moving forward:
Diary-style entries like this one (life, thoughts, and a few rambling rants here and there)
Behind-the-scenes moments from the sticker biz
Updates on new upcoming drops or digital goodies
Occasional surprises for subscribers (all things creativity)
If you’re into art or stickers, welcome to the creative side of The Cafecito Diaries.
Thank you for being here, whether you’ve read one post or all of them. Have a wonderful weekend! ♡
Until next time,
Clari♡ from The Cafecito Diaries ☕️📝 | 💌 hello@claribotello.com
The sticker shop Clari Loves Cafecito will be open this Saturday from 9 am until midnight with some of our favorite designs including sparkling cats, motivational stickers, and past designs. The plan is to keep it simple: open one day a week, and that’s it. Teehee!
