And Boutique Boxes will get those products into the hands of retailers who are actively looking for products like yours. That's a very positive step. I would also suggest that you look for a group of crafters in your area who meet ona regular basis and talk about ewverything from how to imporve your products to how to market them. I'm going to the Georgia Spring Fling in April, a group of crafters who make all sorts of bath and body products as well as candles, tarts, room sprays, etc. I'm also a long-time member of the Alabama Soap Meeting (http://www.alabamasoapmeeting.com) and I can;t tell you how much I have learned there. Follow your bliss, girl. You can do it!ArtsyAllieKathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13884623788687375059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9102310.post-18197510587800414702008-03-11T17:25:00.000-07:002008-03-11T17:25:00.000-07:00I totally agree about allowing my child a little "...I totally agree about allowing my child a little "who am I?" time out of high school.

While it's been good to me and I'm good at what I do, I wish I had something more artistic like graphic designer. le sigh.Squishypighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05033791157658704996noreply@blogger.com
