How many of you are required to attend Staff Development days with your employer? While working for the school district, this was a common occurrence, but not often viewed positively by this staff member. Now that we are self-employed, we see the need for -- and enjoy -- our staff development days.
Sometimes we get so busy soliciting and/or filling orders, we find ourselves short on creative time. So, in 2017, we started scheduling one day each month for just that. We didn't fill orders. We didn't write blogs. We didn't do mending for family. We did kick around new ideas. We did design new patterns. We did learn new techniques. We did make prototypes. Then...2018 started off fast and furious and along the way, we forgot to be as focused on "staff development."
Although it's not a New Year's Resolution, we will be scheduling some Staff Development Days again for 2019. So, if you contact us and it takes us a little longer to respond, just know that we are working to better our craft and vary our inventory for you. We want to stay abreast of trends to offer products you will love and love to use. If you have an idea you would like to share with us, please do!!
