I came Up with the idea to make my crafting a business after I could no longer do the job I loved Due to injury. I was A bus driver from 2005-2013 after working since the age of 14 I had finally found the job that I loved and planned on making it my career! Due to my injury I had To seek a lighter duty but it just was not for me. I began crafting more on my spare time and everytime I stepped out the door people inquired with interest about buying my clothes I had Designed. I begin Doing research online and found a few vendors I made a couple outfits and jewelry and uploaded on Facebook and boom inboxes starting coming! This was perfect because I was now making less money in my full time job. The fact that I can Be creative and do something I love Again had me overjoyed!
