A while ago, a friend of mine and I had embarked on a business venture. Unfortunately, I was much more interested in said venture and it never really took off. I had purchased a domain name, paid for hosting, designed beautiful pages, complete with photos of our wares, and never sold a single item because she didn’t want to give out the business cards or help in any way with the site and it’s promotion. However, it was her idea for us to have the site in the first place.
Our site was mostly candles, bath salts, sachets, and glycerine soaps. I wanted to list the properties of the scents we used, but my “partner” stated that adding those descriptions would be certain to drive our non-magical and non-herbal loving customers away. I didn’t think so but she acted like she knew so much about it and was so insistent that I just gave up. It was supposed to be “our” site, but anything that didn’t meet up with her approval couldn’t go on the site. It didn’t matter what I thought or what I wanted.
Now the site will be back – hopefully in time for a Samhain opening. Right now, it will be a showcase and selling platform for crocheted and knitted items – perhaps I will see if my best friend and her mom would like to sell anything on the site or not. If they do, we’ll have to work out a few of the logistics, such as how they get their money, etc. However, I’m sure that stuff can be easily worked out and everything will end up just fine.
And to top it all off – my PayPal account is still under the name “The Candlelight Boutique!” I never changed it and I don’t plan on changing it. It’s my business and I plan on resurrecting it. Watch here for further news such as when the store’s grand opening will be. 
Way to go Lady A!! If you want to sponsor a giveaway, or offer a sale or discount of some kind, at 2Witches new digs let me know as we would be more than happy to include you among the vendors who are doing so for our Grand Opening.
