I had high hopes of making a huge profit, especially since I had decided early on to give a sizable portion of my proceeds to our local food pantry. Another hit was making keychains using our school colors so lots of the teachers liked those and so did the students of the school. We then decided to add keychains/backpack clips to the production using the washer necklace as the charm and made some to match the necklaces. We even made “Frozen” inspired ones which instantly became a hot seller even before the Marketplace when my mom posted pictures of them on her Facebook wall and people were asking if we could put them on hold for them. We went wild with making them because there were so many design possibilities. I still wanted to do more, so we found an idea on Pinterest using washers to make Mickey/Minnie necklaces. Then after lots of brainstorming with my family, we came up with using them to decorate headbands and even making rings with them. That is when we came up with using them for “Button Bobby’s”, decorating bobby pens with them.
Next, I started with thinking of what I could do with the buttons my grandma had given me over the summer for crafting.
The day I brought the enrollment form home and asked my parents if I could participate, is when I started planning my business! First I quickly came up with my business name and logo, “Forever Young” using the infinity symbol in the middle. This is the first time I have participated in TREP$ and was so excited to get started.
