"Hand-Crafted

I've been making a felt board for Siena when she is older and have had so much fun doing it! Felt is actually a really hip medium right now, so I decided to take a stab at making felt hair clips for Siena. Of course, whenever I get adventurous like that, a crazy idea for a business venture always pops up. It most likely will never happen, but it would be fun to sell "hand-crafted felt clips" at a boutique. I was talking with my mom last night and we decided that the term "hand-crafted" is just a more posh way of saying "homemade", but it works when you're trying to sell! My mom is actually pursuing her own business venture right now; as many of you know, she is a dress designer and the BEST! Her friend, Tamu, encouraged her to make some distressed silk skirts for some boutiques in Park City and she's finished a couple already. Hopefully they will appear in stores soon. Good luck Mom!
