If you have ever tried to get your dream of creating a business with your art and tummy-burning entrepreneurship off the ground, then you may totally relate to my recent weeks! Truly, my hat goes off and wine glass held high to the lucky ones who have already succeeded!! I have diligently been working late into many nights putting a business plan together...My biggest fear ALWAYS is failure, so of course, (read fast...) there's a five year plan with supported data to ensure success and if that doesn't work their is always a parachute that will hopefully open before a great fall and the Humpty Dumpty days ahead hopefully will be short after using liquid glass to adhere my broken wounds (hewfff)... In other words, look this recession squarely into the big hairy eye balls and spend your green as I start a scrapbooking e-company.
That's the plan...now here's the details. www.HouseofScrap.com will be ready for business April 1st...yeah, no foolin! The focus of my business will be offering monthly kits and paper projects. These projects will be unique finds with great pieces using products from Crafty Secrets, Kaisercraft, Doodlebug, Imaginisce, Daisy D's (yes, I have their product), Bazzill, Sassafras and many more. What you won't see are the papers and products found at the Mega Stores like Michaels, Joannes or Craft Warehouse. No offense to the purveyors or employees of the Mega Stores, but I know crafty ladies appreciate the unique and distinct!
So the other thing...after asking around to other "dreamin, scrappin" ladies, I found I wasn't as alone on the island as I thought, because my other passion (for the longest time) is Junking! Who knew...Others too?!?! Luckily for those who appreciate the old...Vintiques are part of my scrapbook world and some will be available on this site under Estate Sale Items.
Thanks for checking into my "House"...Stay tuned in the coming weeks as I officially introduce the shop and have a "Welcome-Wagon" gift for my first 50 customers. Thank you for your support!
