As some of you know, I've had a rough year-health, bad job, ending two year relationship, on, and on, and on. I started a business last year, and it has been growing, but with the illnesses and job issues, I hadn't been putting much time in my business.

Long-story short, I was looking for a retail space, because I was home-based. I went into a popular mall, looking for a kiosk, thinking in a year or so, I could have a store. After the leasing management saw my products, and what I wanted to do, she gave me an unbelievable deal to open a store-not a kiosk-smack dab in the middle of the mall!!!!

I open on Oct. 1, 2007 and I'm soooo excited. For years I've nurtured and lived my analytical side. This venture fulfills the creative part of my being and I'm loving it. A little scared, nervous about the responsibility I will be taking on-but excited none the less. Prayers and good vibes would be highly appreciated at the moment,:tup:
 
CONGRATS!What an accomplishment!U should be SOOO proud!!!!
What kind of store is it?

I am very proud of myself, and I've done it with my own money-no loans or investors.:wlae:

I started with handbags, but with the extra space, I'll be able to expand to shoes and accessories. I can now officially live up to the nickname my friends have given me-queen of the accessoriezed:queen:. If I go out with jewlery own, they think that the world is ending. LOL.

Thanks for asking:smile:
