Business of the Day, May 15th - T & J Alphabet Photography
T & J Alphabet Photography
Hi!
Our business is T & J Alphabet Photography. We are just two best friends/cousins that have beautiful children that are the center of our universe! So wanting to spend as much time as we could with our children and not have to keep a 9-5 job we set out to find something unique and profitable but most importantly something that we really enjoyed and we stumbled across this business venture. We are both avid craft show hoppers :) We love a unique gift but we also like it at an affordable price, especially with such a downed economy! We also both love photography so it just seemed like a right venture to take on. We were inspired by other crafter's that were doing something similar but at a much pricier charge so it was our goal to find products cheaper and become the "do-it-yourself" crafter. After a lot of hunting for the "best deals" on products, we finally were able to bring our ideas to life and create beautiful pieces of artwork that can be customized to spell anything you can imagine. To top it off we were almost 1/2 the price of our other competition. So now having this craft it has become a win-win situation for everyone......people can have great affordable art pieces for themselves or for gifts and we can stay at home with our children and enjoy them growing up!
Thanks for you time!

Business of the Day, May 10th - Top That Cards
Top That Cards
http://www.topthatcards.co.uk/
My name is Caroline and I am the founder of Top That Cards
I first started my company in 2006 after the birth of my second son and it has grown from strength to strength.
I am the designer of all the fimo toppers that appear on the gifts, plaques, cards and frames.
Each and every one of my designs comes from my imagination and I own the copyrights to the designs.
I first began creating just the fimo toppers then I decided to create a range of goods using my own toppers which I keep exclusively for my own creations. This means that each piece created is unique to Top That Cards and cannot be purchased from anywhere else.
I take great pride in my work and love a challenge.
I can create a bespoke frame , card or plaque featuring a fimo character at a reasonable price.
At the moment I am in the process of creating a range of exclusive personalised keepsake frames for children’s rooms and also for Father’s Day.
I also have a number of ranges for children and babies such as Daisy Duckling, Jungle Jelly and Patchwork Ponies.
Prices range from £7.99 to £25.00 for keepsake cards and gifts.

Business of the Day, May 3rd - Hawthorne Moon Creations
Hawthorne Moon Creations
My name is Cassi and I am just starting out as a jewelry designer.
I have been collecting sea glass for years and storing it in jars. I have also
been making jewelry for myself and as for gifts. It has been a crazy "life" year
and many changes have left me searching for true happiness and following my dreams.
I decided on a whim to use a piece of the sea glass when making a piece of jewelry. It was
perfect and Hawthorne Moon Creations was born! I sell my pieces online at
http://www.etsy.com/shop/HawthorneMoon
and showcase, preview and promote new items on my Facebook page
http://www.facebook.com/HawthorneMoon.
I have plans to expand to an international market, have upcoming flea markets on the schedule
and will be doing local home shows with "hostess" incentives in the style of the many direct sales
companies out there. I will also be doing "Virtual" Home Shows via my Etsy shop beginning mid-May
where hostesses friends make online purchases and the hostess still receives rewards. Please
check out my page and contact me if you would like more information about hosting a show!

Business of the Day, May 2nd - Creations By Maggie
Creations By Maggie
I wanted to take a minute and introduce myself and my little shop. My name is Maggie and I am the owner and single operator of Woodburned Creations By Maggie. My love for woodburning started with a trip to Frankfort, MI. There, I fell in love with the enchanting beauty of the lakes and its surroundings and decided to take some firewood home in order to remember this remarkable place. Shortly thereafter, my shop was born! I specialize in custom made woodburned firewood pieces. What's beautiful about this art is that each piece is beautifully made by mother nature and hand picked by me. There is a plethora of options to choose from as far as what we can burn into the signs. Some have color, family names, established dates or even a combination of both. All of my items are custom made, hand painted and designed especially for you. I am very easy to work with, so if you imagine something special, I will try my hardest to make it come true for you!. Check my website often, we have new items everyday!
