Review: GADABOUT

A few years ago I found this fab blog/website called Gadabout. A young woman, Hanna Brooks Nation founded this company and my has it grown! Putting her artistic talent to work, she creates customized stationary, logos, letterhead, and more. Since she started in 2008, her business has grown and expanded through Facebook, her Blog, an online store, and even an App!

Download the Gadabout app- POST- on iTunes for fun custom backgrounds, text notes and email invites, and more! The small price of $0.99 is totally worth it.

                
Follow Hanna Nation by going on her Gadabout website, www.agadabout.com and view her extensive list of social media buzz!
