Decisions, decisions.

When I found out I was pregnant with a little girl, I made the decision to learn how to make tutus, hair accessories and look into sewing classes to make little dresses.  After Addison’s birth, I would take her in to have her pictures taken and people would constantly ask me where I got the tutu’s and hair accessories.  My work is far from perfection, but I believe I do a decent enough job.  I created a small website for all of the locals to visit to see my work and place their orders, but never wanted the business to become super successful because it’s just hard work to do on your own with two little kids running around.

As more and more people asked me, I had to make some decisions about my little hobby.  Do I continue promoting it via door hangers, business cards, flyers and events or do I just have a few business cards printed and hand them as I am asked?  I went with the later, obviously, but has still proven to be successful.  Three of our portrait studios have 10-15 tutus each in their costume closets.  I won’t lie– I am pretty geeked about those numbers!
