Trying to think of everything to keep couples budgets low isn’t easy or predictable! When families come to me with their idea of a Dream Event, I’m forced to “figure out” how to pull it off- often with very little money or with a trade that I refurbish and sell to cover expenses and pay … [Read more…]
Does anyone really know what they want to be when they grow up? I didn’t either and my childhood would be derailed by taking several jobs at a time with my twin sister, Cindy Daniel in order to get by. We left home at 15 years old and lied about our ages in order to … [Read more…]
Finding someone who understood what I was wanting for our inventory wasn’t easy.
