I have always had this deep down need to have a business of my own. I have tried many times. I remember when I was six I would turn my bike upside down and pretend it was an ice cream maker and try to get people to give me money for fake ice cream. As I got older I would make real things, like braided barets, felt magnets, fuzzy pencil toppers etc and sell them at my mother's booth when she did her craft shows. In High School, I took carpentry and continued to make things and try to get people to buy them. I remember making cute little mouse memo holders and lawn ornaments. These were also sold at mom's craft shows.

Sadly mom is gone now and I am left with a closet full of yarn and a handful of hooks and needles but clearly I know what to do with them. =) Crafting is something I was born to do.

I'm here at Etsy hoping to turn my need to have a business and be crafty into something magical. I hope I can gain some friends in the process.
