Make it happen has been the routine lately. I wanted to start my own thing doing my handbags, and I have a full time job and family. It is all working out so far. I have a great friend, Kate Miller-graphic designer, working on my web site and marketing materials for me. Kate has also provided much needed guidance and friendship along the way. Thanks! And my husband, great supporter and brutally honest opinion giver. My son, I think he is going to have the same talents that I have. He is going to know fabric and sewing very well by the time he is five.
Things are coming along smoothly. I try not to get my expectations up and just take it one day at a time. I am constantly getting compliments on my bags, now I've just got to figure out how to get people to make a purchase. Marketing, Marketing, marketing. If they can sell the clapper I should be able to sell my bags. I am hoping to go to trade shows, trunk shows, and such to get more exposure. Word of mouth also helps. Things are going and I am happy with it so far.
If I could only find more time to create. I have this fever that keeps me awake at night. So many ideas, so little time. My notebook is getting full of sketches, fabric swatches and such. And I love every bag that I make. We'll back to the creation of the day.
