Today I visited a second hand shop. I saw lots of wonderful and unique items including handmade crochet cotton dishcloths. The owner saw I was admiring the work and told me how fast they were selling and the trouble she was having keeping the basket full. I made an off hand comment about enjoying making them for my kitchen. All the sudden she was offering me a proposition of being her supplier for the store soon since her current lady was retiring and she had no other replacements. I was caught off guard, but flattered at the same time. I don't even have an Etsy store, I just crochet for the delight in the eyes of the recipient. I told her I would need to think it over as I do work full time and am a full time mom of a 2yr old and 7yr old. My hubby says to go for it and if it's too much then she would need to continue her search. I'm just confused on making yet another commitment on top of the extra stuff I am participating in at work and Girl Scouts. Crochet to me is leisure fun, not meeting deadlines and filling orders.
Okay I just wanted to share some joy of the offer and rant of the decision making process. Open to opinions by the way.
Hope to post more this coming week on projects I'm working on, but need to wait for my days off. I'm running back to back 12hr shifts this weekend so no time for yarn fun. Hope it's sunny where ever you all are, it's beautiful here! Spring has finally sprung into gear.
