So I haven't told you, my friends, that my husband and I are moving out of Texas. We quit our corporate day jobs to chase our dreams and start a new adventure in Asheville, NC. We will be moving out this weekend. Still have some packing to do! It's a very bold thing to do, quitting your job and packing up and moving, but I believe life is too short not to! I have full faith that we can make it.
We chose Asheville because my sister-in-law and her family live there and it is a beautiful part of the country... gorgeous mountains, trees, cooler weather, and it's such a cool little artsy town!
We will be full-time artists. Really focusing on making our lines bigger and better. We'll be selling in local stores, all kinds of craft shows, and we hope to expand to selling internationally. One of my goals will be selling to Anthropologie. I'm gonna make it happen sooner or later!
We are so ready for this challenge! Going into this with lots of faith and determination and support from friends and family.
I'll be filling you in on our journey, so stay tuned :)
XO, Rhi

ReplyDeleteThank you dearly Rebecca! Appreciate your well wishes :)
DeleteOh wow!!! How exciting and inspiring this is!!! I dream to be able to do this eventually. Well, maybe not the moving away part but the quitting my day job to chase my dreams part. We aren't there yet, but one day. :) This is so exciting for you and I wish you all the best!!!
ReplyDeleteDo not go gently into that good night... go headfirst, with all you got!
Delightfully,
