Knott So Shabby's Ribbon Cutting

There has been times in my life when I was over joyed with pride and emotion.  As a child, it was receiving MVP for volleyball or being selected for State Vocal Contest.  As a young women, it was the moment my husband proposed and walking down that church aisle. And of course each and every time my husband and I looked down at one of our children's faces as they arrived into this world.
Well, last night was another one of  those moments.  With my family and bestie Jen, we cut that red ribbon to my new shop in town, and it felt wonderful.  I've always been a hard worker and I try not to  let anything stand  in the way when achieving something.
What started out as a hobby kind of thing to bring in a few dollars a month out of our home, has turned into something I have secretly wanted for some time, my own place to showcase my furniture!  When I sold my work out of my home, it was great, but because there was a lot of traffic coming and going and with our young children being there with that, we decided it was best to get a place that could be a holding area or  "showroom" if you will,  of my furniture and home decor.  So it's official, hard work has paid off and my new shop
"Knott So Shabby" is now on the map in historic Columbia Illinois!

My wonderful husband 5 kiddos help me celebrate!
I will post the actual ribbon cutting soon!
