| A year from now you'll wish you'd started today |
It resonates so much because it is very true for me. I do beat myself up when I think of all the time I waste on thinking about stuff and not actually doing anything about it. I wish I had read this four years ago. Ten years ago maybe. So I started something today. Ok, ok, I started it on Tuesday. I am only three days late in writing it out loud. I designed, drafted a pattern and handmade my first pair of bespoke silk knickers. After researching until my eyes bled for UK based manufacturers that were suitable to make the underwear I needed in vain, I just bleeding well did it myself. Successfully.
I love the personalised bridal underwear I used to make and have been wanting to start it up again for some time, but thought I needed suppliers and outside help to make it work again, turns out I don't :) If you want a job doing, do it yourself, such is life.
There are a few cons to taking on the making of the underwear on top of the personalising...it takes time, it is not cheap, it will make my products more expensive to sell. BUT the quality is higher, all materials are sourced from the UK and they are made in the UK, I will not get screwed over by manufacturers who take all of my money and then go bankrupt leaving me with no money or underwear to show for the heartache (true story) and there will be love in every stitch.
This weekend I'll be expanding the size range and getting some samples together so I can take pretty pictures of them. *Googles photography for beginners*
