Sea of coziness

I have always felt that I've been floating in this non decision state. No commitments, no risks and no rewards. It will probably never change unless I am pushed. This is my personal llife. I feel cosy and safe here and therefore I don't need to make big decisions.

There have been ocasions of course, when such a status quo was undeniably unacceptable, so I have ventured out of my 4 walls of coziness to change things - big decisions of the sort of moving o the UK and leaving the life I knew. Or fighting for the man I loved eventhough the fight seemed to be lost before I even picked up the glove - now we are married and have a wonderful daughter...

 

This one is not as big a decision as it may seem, but for me it's a little piece of puzzle I have started to complete a few months ago when I decided to start this blog. Should I order some card/card blanks in wholesale quantity? I could try and sell some of them. At the moment I wouldn't be able to sell them as a main income, I don't think i would ever decide on such a drastic step- it takes me about an hour to make a card from scratch if I need to design it in my head first. If it's something I have done before then it's much easier and faster - Easter cards took about 20 minutes each once I knew what I wanted them to look like. Also, one of the factors that acts against me is the space - you saw the havoc I generated in my lounge in the first post - it takes time toset up the shop and then time to tidy up.

So - At the moment it would still be just a hobby. But maybe one I could slowly make some money on... I started to gather costs of card blanks. I have already spent much more on this that I would ever want to and I haven't gone bancrupt is only thanks to my lovely salary from the previous life and my husband's current salary (my current one is barely covering the nursery costs and make up removing pads;)

Then the question would be of the card costs, mediums to sell it through - I'd need to make a business plan and stick to it probably. And not splash on unnecessary stuff. Like shoes. Or new baby wraps...
