Today I read this amazing mini mag by Ree Ree Rockette about starting your own buisness and starting up. As someone who would desperately love to start my own buisness myself, I found it truely inspirational. For a long time I have wanted to start my own small buisness run from home in which I make my own fascinators. Unfortunately the dreams and plans were put on hold due to the fact I got too consumed with real life, being an adult and cashless! All these factors still stand in my way, but I figured if I don't do it now, then I never will. I don't want to be that person who regrets what they didn't do in life. So, this year I am determined to get my ideas off the ground and try and start my own buisness. I know I won't make any money, and it's going to be a really hard journey getting it off the ground but I am prepared for all the hardwork! Each month I am going to set myself a task in which I need to achieve. Each week I am going to take tiny steps in order to get myself sorted. I have all these plans but nothing on paper so tomorrow I *WILL* get my arse into gear and show some evidence of my ideas! The plan is to get some drawings together and create a moodboard. Then I am going to start making my own fascinators which i am going to wear to various events and hopefully try and get the word out! Wish me luck!

Ahhhh Wow! Well done you for deciding to go for it! I had the same kind of thing, thinking about starting my own wee jewellery business but was so afraid of failure...now I've just started getting materials together, going to see how it goes :D Please update often with how it goes, would love to see how you get on! xxxx
ReplyDeleteAww that sounds amazing! Maybe we can both be a little bit famous for our little businesses one day! :)What kind of jewellery do you want to make? Don't be afraid of failure, the best thing about the internet is the power to promote things. But I know what you mean, getting the idea out and for people to know or care, is half the battle. I have got so far as planning my name haha! :) xxx
