As I’ve gotten closer to retirement, I’ve been
thinking about what to do with my business of TimelessAprons.
I had thought that I would wait a few more
years but with business falling off so badly I think I will go the
semi-retired state and just scale back, a lot.
One of the ways I will be scaling back is that after the
beginning of next year I will be cutting down on what is available at my etsy
shop with the plan of eventually closing it. Even though I’m getting ready to
launch a shop with the new Handmade at Amazon it is not fully load nor will it
ever be. I will probably close it out completely by next spring or sooner.
I will keep my website up and open to
take custom requests and to sell off what I had to make for the pictures on etsy
and amazon. But once these Ready Mades
are gone that will be all of the ready made’s and only custom requests will be
available.
Please do not contact me asking to buy my patterns as they
are not and will not be for sale. I had
thought about getting them in shape to have patterns printed and then sell the
patterns, I may still look into it but if I decide to do that it will be at least
2 or 3 years before they are available. But once the patterns are available there is a good chance that I will cease making aprons all together and just sell the patterns.
As you all know, Life happens and things change so I can
only say that as of right now this is my plans for the future and if something
changes I will be sure to post it here.
