My business

    I don’t know if you can call 2009 a dark year for me or not, but I was worried about a job. I want to move on with my life, but I couldn’t. When I accepted Christ in 1996, I started making birthdays and anniversaries cards for everybody, and it felt I was doing something because people like them. I told them it was not my design. It was just a program with clipart (designs). A lady always wanted me to sell them, but it didn’t feel right. We had an interim pastor in 2009, and I asked to see if he knew any job that I can do because I needed a job. He was like I could make shirts with clipart because I had talent. He let me borrow his heat press. I tried Carol’s business for a while. A few years later, Dad brought me a nice heat press, and I wanted to make God the center of it. My cousin suggested to call my business Inspired By God, and I loved that idea. We could make shirts, hats and more things. We tried cups, but it didn’t work on the cups that I ordered, so we only did shirts and hats. I went Vol Rehab school and self-taught myself how to design my own designs. Dad let nobody use the press. I made the design and print, and he pressed them onto the shirts. My church was very supportive because I did all the Bible School shirts. A store brought some shirts. Also, we sold items after my speeches. After Dad died, I sold the press because we hadn’t use it since we moved, and it was too hot for me to handle. Anyway, my shirts were old school compared to the Cricut. I can’t cut, and I don’t see to buy it and let other people do the work. Now, I’m just selling items that I can do on my own. I can make wall pictures, greeting cards, business cards, make pictures on DVDs, copy CDs and fix pictures. I even got my first book on my website. My book will be another different post. I have a website that I designed by myself; www.InspiredByGod.biz.
