Good news - bad news

I have some interesting news for myself. First the bad news, my old jewelry supplier is no more! Seems they bit the dust about 3 years ago. It was mostly costume stuff but they did have a really nice line of gold plated silver jewelry which I sold at very nice profits. After that news I had to get away from the computer and went into town.

In town today there were several early Holiday craft fairs and I went to 2 of them. I was talking to several people about me looking for something to get involved in to make a living. Several of them started out just like me and now they are doing very well. It got my confidence up again.

I got back home and went straight to the internet to find a supplier of a product that I could sell at the local Holiday Bazaars. I found an ad on craigslist.com and ended up talking to the owner of a Sterling silver jewelry distribution company. She was really nice and very helpful. It turns out she supplies several of the local florists and bridal boutiques in the lower part of my state with Sterling silver jewelry and gemstone jewelry. Some of her stock is for sale online but she mostly sells to retail stores. She then told me that if I wanted to she could help me with setting up jewelry parties in my area. She use to do jewelry parties years ago with friends and that's how she started out in the jewelry business. I was now excited!! She is sending me one of her dealer kits and I should get it Monday or Tuesday.

Maybe now I can have my income and life back!!!
