SF Creative Business Collective

While strolling through SF Craft Mafia Winter Trunk Show, I found a flyer for the SF Creative Business Collective. The organization is taking a creator-to-business approach to help the community of entrepreneurial DIYers focus on the tricks and trades of being indie. They plan to have workshops and salons on effective marketing, online selling, distribution, fashion trends, taxes, and legal issues.

Members are being sought. Email sfcreativebusinesscollective at yahoo dot com for more information. Read the SFist feature of Feisty Elle, one of the head honchos.

Gee-Elle-Eh-Em-Oh-Are-Oh-You-Ess: Glamour Girls

As I was at Papyrus looking for a birthday card for a co-worker, my glimmering eye was mesmerized by this gigantic color-photo filled pages of beautifully dressed gals splashed across every page.

Unwinding professionally, hobbying towards a fashion design maven

It is time to beat back the forces of corporate evil and re-infuse some creativity from my fashion design calling. Just learned how to work a sewing machine including winding a bobbin. I have a long way to go, and I hope to one day retrace the breadcrumbs of this mind-blowing journey that may eventually separate me from my current mind-numbing career. This will be so worth it!
