So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Craft Business

By Ian Kleine

Ever wondered what makes a person successful in business? It's not about having a good market, or having a good niche, or having a good amount of clients (although that would help quite a lot).

It is about having a good relationship with your work. Yes, your relationship with your business. After all, how would one succeed with something you would disagree with? To make good with business, you must like your business; and I'd daresay, you must enjoy and make your business a part of your life.

If you have a hobby of crafting, then why not venture out in to the business world armed with your doohickeys and crockery? In these days, it is not strange for small business enterprises to brave the outdoors and come back big or even bigger than before. It is in the matter of the entrepreneur's initiative, motivation and creativy to bevel competition and use it as an inclination to push one's business up the ladder of today's society.

If you want to make money out of your hobby, it is wise that you INVEST first in your craft. With technique and equipment comes efficiency and reliability, and with efficiency and reliability comes a strong market base and profit.

The rule of business is to make one coin higher than what you had spent. Using your hobby as a foundation of your business is a most-agreed upon idea even ages before. But of course, one has to consider the market and the environment too. It is not impossible that you only have one craft or hobby. Think about what your community wants, and from there, exploit that need. If your place is a naturally cold place, wouldn't scarves be a profitable venture? Hot as the desert sun? A refreshment stand is sure to be a hit.

Festivals are good places to let your community know, that another entrepreneur has entered the market.
