Welcome!

Welcome to my Origami Owl Blog!

I am a new Independent Designer with big dreams!  I want to take the time to tell you a little bit about why I started selling Origami Owl.

First of all, I'm a stay at home mom.  I love being home with my kids, but lets face it, there are a lot of challenges. 

1. One income families have to cut back a lot.  You really have to stay on top of your budget.  I wanted to contribute anything I could.
2. You lose a little bit of your own identity when you respond to Mom all day.  I wanted to be something more.  Now I can say I'm a stay at home mom AND Independent Designer with Origami Owl.
3. Adult time is limited.  Now I get to share Origami Owl with fun ladies and their friends and families.  A couple hours of adult time is just the recharge I need each week.

I believe in Origami Owl.  While on the wait list, and yes there is a wait list for this company (and it's a good thing), I took the time to research and decide if this is the company I really wanted to sign up with.  I love that this was all started by a 14 year old girl who wanted to buy a car.  It shows ambition and good values.  I also love that you can do mother and daughter teams.  What a great way to start a young entrepreneur on a career journey! And most of all, I LOVE the product. I spent a lot of time looking over the site and building My Story.  I was excited, but when my kit came in the mail, I was even more excited!  The product is just beautiful and so many possibilities.

This is my first locket:

 

This Lockets Story: My son thinks he's a dog (dog bone), my daughter is totally the princess of this family (pink crown), my husband and I lost a baby and he is represented by the Owl, but is soon to be represented by the vintage sparrow, my brother is deployed to Afghanistan (four leaf clover).  It is so fun to build stories based on what you love!

 

I would love to hear your story.  I would also love for you to join my team or host a party.  Please contact me if you are at all interested in either.  I do home parties if you are located in Western Michigan and catalog or online parties all over the United States.
