Looking Forward to "2012":
Introducing the new year!
As
some of you know I am a stay at home (working) Mom. I have two
beautiful little girls. GracyMay is 5 years old and now in Pre-K. Her
teacher Ms. Karen said, "She is very smart and at the top of her class".
Yay, GracyMay! I pray that she stays that way through college ^_^ !!
And I have a 14 month old, Faithlyn that makes me smile everyday. She is
the happiest and funniest baby and brings so much joy into my mommy
lifestyle. Between the two I manage to keep our home in somewhat order.
Let me put it this way, we live in our home you can tell that as soon
as I open the door. Sometime ago our minister stop by unannounced and
he realized that he should call first. I had no coffee made and I warned
him we do not take lawsuits if you trip over toys. Anyway my husband
tolerates toys, craft supplies and finished products. I do have an
office but I have out grown it. Maybe some of you can relate. On top of
mommy-hood I also rent a show room in Natchitoches, Louisiana (39 miles
north of Alexandria, LA.) It is located off of Front Street in Gifts
Galore and More. I am generally stocking and displaying new products
once a month. The business name is "Treasure Chest Collections". I have
Home Decor, Sterling Silver Jewelry, Children Boutique Gifts and
Accessories. These are mainly retail items with some of my hand crafted
items. I recently have branched out and I have some products in a new
shop called "Somethin Snazzy" located in Alexandria, LA. off Jackson St.
Ext. She allows me to stock my products in her shop for a commission.
Her shop is very unusual, she has hand crafted items and retail. It's a
neat mixture like my show room in Natchitoches. I also setup at two
festivals every year. The Nursery Festival in March and The Pecan Festival in
November. So between my girls, carpool, my shops and shows I am busy.
So are you wonder how I do it? Well, I go, go, go! And I could use a
good week of sleep. =D However, I do the very best I can and focus on
what needs to be done with a lot of sticky notes. Now the reason I am
telling you this is I'm not a big business. I do not produce my items
overnight so please understand why I can not have a two day turn around
time. I will need a week to two, depending on where you are located and
whether it is holiday season to get your item/s to you.
