Hello 2024!

✨ Well, here we are! 2024 and I am 100% here for it. I am ready. From getting my mission statement defined to setting up my accounting as I shift to an inventory-based business, I am well on my way to being organized this year. To say it's easy would be a complete, bald-faced lie. I am frantic, a mess, and generally all over the place, but it feels good to force myself to do things I'm not comfortable doing. (No one really ever talks about the boring, but required side of small business ownership, but I'm here to tell you that it's not fun. At all.) 🛟 🆘 

I have been meeting with some really amazing small business owners, realtors, and other professionals this year and I am so excited to be working with them to offer branded merchandise as well as quality gifts for their clients. 

As much as I love creating all of those fun gifts, there is still a side to me that loves being able to cut basically anything I can think of out of wood using my laser and paint it. Good, ole' fashion craftin'. And I know there are many of you out there that love doing the same thing! I would love to get to a point where I could offer the best of both worlds. And I do think it's possible...with a little help from you. The hardest part is thinking, guessing what others might like. Just because I like creating holiday-themed tiered tray decor does not mean you do. So what DO you like? What would you like to see from me on that side? Tiered tray, after all? Gnomes? Small signs for the interior of your house? Door hangers? Here's a little sample of a tiered tray set I did. 

I am thinking that these can all translate to a monthly kit. I could create a certain number of kits for that project and offer them to you. Complete (or not) with paint, brushes, and anything else you might need to complete it. I could offer options -- paint or no paint and provide different prices reflecting those options. 

Thoughts? This is a little exciting!!
