My friend and I started our Ebay store in an effort to find a way to stay home with our kids. We both had high-level demanding jobs in a large city and realized that once we had kids this would have to change. Once we got through the initial baby stage and had a bit more time (I do stress, a Bit!) we started to think of how we could re-create ourselves. It became important to still find something that would keep our brains going, but keep flexibility for family, and, of course, bring some extra cash into the house. During a backyard playdate, we talked about the difficulty in finding unique art for our kids rooms and my friend ended up painting her own. Once I saw how talented she was, I encouraged her to start painting again. She created the art, and I designed products with it. We're now trying to figure out how to share the art with others. We keep hearing about Blogs, but as parents don't see how people find the time to find them. If anyone has any info about parent blogs that they have found that have some useful information and may also be a way for us to share our story, please let us know! Thanks for reading!
