Contestant's Case to Win

The spirit of Christmas warms my heart all year round. Christmas is my favorite time of year. Combine this with my love of shopping for others and gift giving, I decided to share my passion by opening a store called Christmas Year Round. We share the spirit of gift giving Summer, Winter, Spring and Fall (as depicted by the four windows of my logo). My retirement dream is not unique - to open a Bed & Breakfast that includes a small retail shop in the parlor. Dreams just don't pop into existance, you have to make them happen. I have turned my passion for Christmas decorating into selling Christmas decor; turned my passion for my Grandkids into selling toys, crafts and educational items; turned my passion for collecting into selling Harry Potter, Dept. 56 and other collectibes. My passion evolves on a daily basis. There is no denying owning, operating and managing an on-line store is hard work, but I'm glad I started several years ago than years from now.
