Where design meets random...
Much like the name of my shop, I started Randomalia... well... randomly.
Years ago, due to a lack of funds, I lost my non-profit job working with cancer patients. While looking for a new job I also started helping friends with their parties and events to keep busy. Since I often couldn't find what I was looking for - whether it be theme, design, or color - I'd just create whatever I needed on my own. During that time I found myself making banners, invitations, decorations, even large scale design pieces. It was something I realized I loved to do and I would catch myself daydreaming about what I could create next.
I began to toy with the idea of creating an Etsy shop for myself. On a whim, I opened my shop in June of 2012 with one item - custom ice cream cups. I had a goal of making 8 sales for the year and just seeing what would happen. By the end of my first year I had added 23 more items to the shop and had made 150 sales.
My random little dream turned into a randomly wonderful little business.
I took some time off to have some babies, and now I'm back bringing digital content to my little random space here on the web.
I love what I do and I know I could not do it without my amazing customers! I love creating new pieces for them and tailoring my work to their needs. Each and every day in the shop brings something new, wonderful, and of course, random!
XoXo,
Erin
