Another Idea

Okay....this is not original but it is a good idea for a business.  The idea is Create Something Inspiring.  (CSI)  Focus on the inspiring Part (craft theme...decorating theme....etc).  Try to incorporate a local mission to support with it (Like or Habitat for Humanity chapter).  The business could just open on Saturday and then have a window display the rest of the week of ideas for folks to get inpired from.  Hmmm....still thinking about the business!

more tinkering...

I'm thinking something like "Creation Station" or "Craft Hackers".  Offer a recycled craft source area and then die cuts, accessories, fabric, ribbon etc.  People could bring in their own stuff and use the hardware to assemble a product OR they could visite the recycle area and bag up stuff. Could charge for the new stuff and/or charge by size of project.  IE....like their item would fit in a certain size bag  and price it by size of bag.  Have classes....open for party or clubs to resource together.  Hmmm.....

Further thoughts...

I've decided that I don't want to be the "manufacture" person of a business but rather the person that inspires creativity.  Having beautiful foundations for folks to work from.  Maybe offering "fulfillment" process where I would create something to go with an event they are planning.  Fabric, die-cut services, craft findings, classes for different art forms AND maybe an area to showcase a local artist.   Seems like ideas are starting to come together :-)
