I run a small machine embroidery business, Beehive Stitches Embroidery, and I mostly service small businesses and individuals with their personalization needs.
"The Cari Cami is a camisole with pockets that I originally designed for myself as a place to keep my phone from getting lost, broken or dropped. It is now a 'must have' accessory for thousands of women in the United States and Canada.
Cari-Cami allows you to invisibly carry your cell phone and other basics wherever you go and yet still be stylish. Cari-Cami has two pockets and carries most cell phones, credit cards, medications and other necessities.
Even though I came up with the idea, my husband is my support and we work together in this venture.
We are a home based company doing most of our business online. We do the fulfillment from the house.
The greatest part of this job is when someone gets the concept and can see the potential that Cari Cami can make in their lives.
We have a Medical Option style of the Cari Cami made especially for one of our customers with Diabetes. She requested a change in our pattern so that she could more easily get the tubing from the back of the Cari Cami into the pocket through a buttonhole in the back. We were happy to make that change and now the Medical Option is one of the best sellers."
Harvest Home Bakes is an at home bakery. I started in June 2021 by taking a chance on a dream and selling most weeks at the Eagle Mountain Farmer's Market. I had more success than I could have hoped for, and continued baking and selling during the market's off-season from my home. I will be back at the Eagle Mountain Farmer's Market for the 2022 season.
I am beginning to make and market cheese and other dairy products. I have been doing this for about 6 years and it is something I think more people should know how to do. Dairy is a scary subject to a lot of people but it's not hard and people used to handle it all the time. Taking care of farm animals and being able to use the products that you get from them can be so beneficial. Because of all the hazards with dairy products and not having a commercial kitchen I am at a standstill with what I can do with what I have.
I am a food blogger with a line of 20 spice blends as well as kitchen tools. I am a sought after public speaker and I host events that focus on adjusting the relationship you have with food.
