The Shopkeeper

I have done it! It's taken me years to get here, but I have finally opened an online store for my stationery business. I am not sure what has been holding me back for all this time. Well, that's not entirely true... part of it has been that I am a wee bit of a perfectionist. I have had a vision in my mind of what my website should be, and I have an 'I can do anything' attitude that tends to get me into trouble. So for years, I have been struggling with trying to teach myself to be a web designer (which I can handle) and how to write HTML code (without actually reading a book or taking a class).

I finally found a couple of great resources online and took the plunge... and you know what? This is actually better than I could have ever imagined! I'm thrilled, I'm tickled, I'm giddy and I hope I will soon be completely covered up with business.

If you are reading this, I hope you will click on the open sign above and take a look inside. There are hundreds of products available and many more to come including invitations, birth announcements, everything wedding, personal cards, foldover notes and lots of other goodies.

Getting this far is truly a dream realized. I absolutely love, love, love paper products and have been designing my own stationery and cards since I was a little girl. Thanks to everyone who has gotten me this far!
