In the beginning, i believed the 'get rich' stuff.
Thankfully the niche i chose was beautiful; cameo jewelry.
Quickly i learned that financially this was not wise.
By then enough people had been happy to have cameos they were unaware existed that i had a few regulars and young girls were learning the beauty of the cameo.
A decision had to be made; make money, or sell what i knew helped. As a very young generation, some in elementary school liked the jewelry; i could not disappoint them.
Boxes, ribbons , bows i bought as that seemed correct.
After a couple of years ans as others were charging a few dollars for it; and i could not afford it any longer... it is now the rarity.
Cameos at best pay fees. We buy the best except 1 from a lot-error.
Simple belief ; leave the world a bit better than you found it has kept it going.
Policy, remember, this may be all the income someone has for a gift. Be sure they get more than elsewhere.[ not perfect]
So, it has been a long and simple mission.
As it draws to a close i remember the few who were truely happy with their items,.
For them; it has been worth while.
Will be closing today. or tomorrow.
Have to, for financial reasons.
Alexs surgeries were almost $10,000.00
above insurance.
Will likely post now and then.
