With all that has been happening recently, I have been thinking (idly musing, if I'm honest) about trying to make a little business out of selling my hand made cards and gifts. I had no idea how this could possibly take shape, not being really business-minded, and was really just throwing it around in my head.
The other evening I went to a local prayer meeting and got talking about being a Fair Trade rep. A lovely lady at the meeting suggested that I try to sell some of the food etc via a little cafe owned by a friend of hers in Blaenavon, a village a few miles away from my home.
Yesterday I drove to the cafe for lunch with the lady from the prayer meeting. A couple of hours later, having had lovely relaxed lunch with PM lady and a chat with the cafe owner, I had secured a deal to sell her beverages and snacks. The thing that really excited me, though, was the fact that she has agreed to give me use of the little side room, previously used by her daughter to sell occult stuff and tourist tat, to sell fair trade gifts and my creations. She had been praying about finding a new use for this space!
Gobsmacked? Blown away? Amazed? Excited? Stunned?
YES! :)
