Kicking Off "It's a Shady Business" with a Bang!
Well, folks, the moment has arrived! After countless hours of rummaging through charity shops, wrestling with fabric, and debating the merits of vintage versus modern (spoiler: vintage always wins), I'm thrilled to announce the launch of my new venture: It's a Shady Business!
If you've ever wondered what happens when a lampshade enthusiast with a passion for recycling decides to start a business, wonder no more. Picture this: a whirlwind of fabric, a few "what was I thinking?" moments, and an ever-growing collection of lampshades that might just have more stories than your favourite book series.
Starting this business has been a hilarious rollercoaster of triumphs and, well, a few mild disasters. I've unearthed forgotten lampsahdes from the depths of charity shops, given them a second chance at life, and turned them into fabulous one-off pieces that I'm incredibly excited to share with you.
Why "Its a Shady Business," you ask? Because, dear reader, I'm not just selling lampshades; I'm making eco-friendly statements and lighting up your life with a touch of retro flair. My motto? "Saving the planet, one lampshade at a time—while having a laugh along the way!"
So grab your favourite cuppa, browse my quirky collection, and join me on this brilliantly bright journey. Here's to a business that's as fun as it is fabulous. Welcome to It's a Shady Business! Let's make your space shine!
Every week, I'll be sharing exciting updates, behind-the-scenes glimpses, and a little bit of humor from my journey as a lampshade loving entrepreneur (note: I am using this term very loosely because I really do not know what it means!). Trials and tribulations along the way, incorporating crafting tips and special events to exclusive announcements about new retro-inspired designs—this blog is where I'll shine a light on it all. Whether it's celebrating milestones, showing off quirky finds, or announcing upcoming collections, I'm, excited to bring you along for the ride. Stay tuned, and let's brighten up your inbox with a little more shade (in the best way possible!)
