One of my favorite things with my Ceramic Hand & Foot Impressions business is creating the studio space for my customers.

I love having a space where they feel comfortable coming into my home.

When I started my business back in 2000, I used my kitchen table. I set up and took down on the days I had appointments. I work up over the years, to having a room just for my customers. But, until then, my kitchen table was perfect.

I have had several studio spaces over the years, as I moved at different times. This was my last one....

You will notice in the picture that the lower levels of my book shelf are empty. I learned very quickly that it was best not to have anything breakable at toddler level. If you have toddlers yourself, you are very aware of this!

 I always make sure I have many many samples for my customers to look at. I found it was good to give my customers ideas and options to pick and choose from.

What you do not see in the picture is a couch I had to the left of...

This week I want to share a video with you addressing working this business around the family. I started this Hand and Foot Impressions business because I wanted to stay home with my children, but I also wanted to make some money and keep my brain stimulated. Can I get an AMEN?

Watch this video and it should answer most of your questions about how moldable this business really is.

I have been working from home for the past 20 years. I am so thankful that this business has allowed me to do that. Like I mention in the video, my kids are grown now and my flexibility with scheduling, anything, is a lot easier than it used to be, but I remember the days of juggling little ones. I was always thankful that I could snuggle a little longer in the mornings with my kiddos or take them to the doctor, if needed, without having to call into work and try and explain why I needed more time off of work.

Working from home has been one of the biggest blessings of my life. It would be hard to go back...
