I tried to start a business a couple of years back. I decided to try to turn my crafting into a full fledged business and it failed.....but I am ok with that. What happened was I put so much pressure on myself to become successful, spent so much time agonizing over the process, that I never had time to produce anything fruitful. Well, I did....but when it didn't result in hundreds of sales immediately I quit. Not to mention I worked full time, have 2 kids under the age of 6, and work the opposite shift from my husband. So describes the death of Whimsy Cool Studio, my dream of self employment!
Bellybird Designs is my attempt to do what I couldn't with Whimsy Cool Studio....just tweaked a little. The goal is to share my hobbies, make some fun stuff, and see where it goes from there. I will be starting an Etsy store, but I am totally removing the pressure I laid out before. If the store takes off, great! If not, I am still having fun doing what I love and hopefully entertaining people along the way.
