Explanation

   So I don't really know how often you are supposed to write on your blogs, since this is the first one I've ever done and I've never even really read a blog before. I still have no idea how to work most of the stuff on here, but I guess in time this will come together. I realized that this blog is all about making my dreams a reality, but I never really went into what those dreams are exactly....so....."here goes nothin'". 
  I'm setting myself a 10 year career goal, although I honestly hope I pull it together quicker than that. Ten years feels like an awful long time! Starting when I get home, I will be creating a business, to sell my jewelry and my fashion designs. I will create a website and sell things online and through consignment and at booths until I have enough product, knowledge, money, and clientele to open at a shop. At that time I will find a place similar to this http://www.househuntersofidaho.com/m/home.aspx#details?listingid=19549272 
or this http://www.househuntersofidaho.com/homes/55-E-State-Ave/20771946/?index=58
and open the perfect little shop, with a cafe with patio seating, and everything else my little brain can cook up. If it turns out the way I hope, it will be a place where people just love to go, a place where they feel at home and where I'm friends with all my clients. Of course that's just a general explanation, but I don't want to give too much away. ;)
    I'm so excited for the end result and remind myself every day not to get ahead of myself so I can focus on the day to day. The first thing I will need to do is set up my business license and make sure the name isn't being used already. Then I need to learn to sew. lol Its something I have planned to learn for ages now, but if I'm going to start a business including fashion design, I really need to get to it!
  My main concern was knowing where I would be able to sell my things consignment and still have a little control over what happens to my items. Then last night I got a call from my good friend David. He said that he had been buying things to sell and was opening a booth at an antique type mall and asked if I would want to sell my things there! It was so perfect! I can't wait to go home and put everything together and get to work. For the next few weeks, I will keep myself focused on what I can do while I'm still here in Mesa, which is make more jewelry. I mean, I can't sell what I don't have right?
