Everyone told me I needed a hobby...
I love decorating my home for Fall and Christmas. Every year for Christmas I go all out. I even wrap the presents under the tree to match my decor. Well Christmas of 2021 I decided that I wanted to add ribbon and bows to all of my presents. I sat on my living room floor with my business partner Jess (who was wonderfully wrapping all of the gifts going under the tree) trying to figure out how to make a handmade bow. I watched every video YouTube had to offer. I just could not figure it out. I came across a video of a woman who was using a bow maker. I thought to myself, that is ingenious!! I must have one!! So Merry Christmas to me, I bought a bow maker. After playing around with some cheap ribbon, I surprised myself at how much I enjoyed making bows. I've always loved designing and decorating so this did not surprise my friends and family. After watching some more videos I decided it was time to do some research on how I can make this a hobby that doesn't fill my house with 100's of bows.... It hit me!! Etsy!! I've been an Etsy buyer for years. I did not think I'd ever be a seller. But here I am!! For everyone out there that sits on their living room floor in frustration trying to make a handmade bow... I am here for you!!
