Getting started

I've been wanting to start my own business since forever, The biggest problem really was working out what it would be. What can i do? What do i have to offer? What if it fails? What if...what if...what if????

 It suddenly came to me a few weeks ago...What if??? SO WHAT!!! At least I'll have tried. If it does go wrong, well then I'll learn from my mistakes and try again! So finally i decided to get off my butt and get going, After reading lots online and especially reading Leonie Dawson's blogs which are so inspirational i made a start.

I had to work out what i was good at and what i enjoyed doing. I must have sat for about an hour (it felt like days) trying to figure this out! I was staring blankly at a couple of things I'd made that morning ( a photo frame and a patchwork covered notebook) that were still drying, and it hit me!

THIS is what i love to do...and I am good at it too! I LOVE TO CREATE! I love to take everyday objects and give them a bit of  colour! Make the ordinary just a little bit less ordinary.

 So i started finding pictures of all the "tweaks" I've made to furniture and other odds and ends in my little flat!

I created a page on facebook to show off my creations! My page is Crafty Caris if you want to have a look  https://www.facebook.com/pages/Crafty-Caris/131418043667133

Thus begins the beginning and lets see what i can make of it!
