Contestant's Case to Win

This is based on the number of votes received.
I am a mother of 4~ Hayleigh 15, Nathan 13, Samantha 7, and Madison 3. I have been a stay at home mom since 2006 after being a hairstylist for 13 years. I really enjoy being here for my kids, but I was missing something. I have always liked vintage treasures, anything with a past behind it and I love using my hands and imagination creating beautiful one of a kind treasures. I had met a wonderful women that inspired me to open my own website after selling my wreaths on Ebay for a year. Within a month, I researched information on how to start my own website. My daughter Hayleigh at the time was 13 and she taught me everything I needed to know. I was amazed that she knew so much and I owe a lot to her. We even worked together and created me a beautiful site~ I call us the Mother and Daughter Team.
I have owned my website for over 2 years and love every minute of it. My girls love to help me create and go to flea markets. They are always sure to find a treasure for themselves. I think it has brought us closer and mom is much happier since I consider myself a successful business women. Each year I see my site growing and I love to encourage women with talent to follow there dreams. One day I hope to have my very own little brick and mortar shop where my girls and I can share fond memories at.
One day~
