A friend’s Mom helped me out big time on this piece. A friend of hers was looking to sell this beautiful antique buffet and I was lucky enough that she thought of me! It looks like it’s in pretty decent shape but don’t let the photo fool you… The top was a hot mess, the bottom drawer didn’t close, both side doors didn’t shut and the top two drawers were...

It’s always best to begin at the beginning. From the moment I decided to attend BlogU15 in Baltimore I was terrified and thrilled. The “bitch in my head” started to take over my brain and I did my best to quiet her.

This is especially true for big purchases such as a car, appliance or computer, but we also do this for electronics, clothing and a million other things.

I’m not exactly sure when it happened, but sometime in the past few months I realized something… I’m a small business owner! It’s true! I am! I’m sure many people in Direct Sales go through this odd transformation. Most people start Direct Sales companies as a hobby, a way to make an extra $100/month, or maybe just to get a discount on some of their favorite products. I definitely did not purchase...
