Wednesday Wisdom … Cathie Filian

Have you met my friend Cathie Filian?

 

She is a dynamic redhead who I absolutely adore … and I think she is genius!

When you craft is there not always something that you need that you can’t find because it hasn’t been invented yet? We all have .. .and we wonder why someone hasn’t thought of it before, and then we think that we should invent it, then we begin to do our research on how to manufacturer it, promote it, sell it, and then it all becomes just too much and we go back to wondering why no one has invented “it” yet! Well Cathie did all of that … but the giving up part … saw a need, invented, had manufactured, and is helping to promote and sell HOT GLUE GUN HELPERS.

We have all needed this since the invention of glue guns and it took this crafter just like you and me to get it done! Get a diet coke, a skinny vanilla latte, or a chamomile tea and visit Cathi’s website – Domestic in the City … you will want to spend some time there!

Much love Jo

The Southern Women’s Show … You could win a BIG PRIZE!

 

CHA and WHERE WOMEN CREATE are going to be a big part of the Southern Women’s Show this Thursday, October 13th-Sunday the 16th in Orlando.

The WWCreate team of demonstrators includes: Kathy Cano-Murillo – The Crafty Chica – and ILovetoCreate; Cathie Filian and Plaid; Cindy Cloward and Jina Barney of Riley Blake Designs; Leigh Standley of Curly Girl Design; and Shea Fragoso and Debbie Murray and A Gilded Life.

This is the first time that I have participated in a consumer show and I am so pleased that we have been invited to be part of an event that is as successful as this one.

I flew to Charlotte to meet the team at the Southern Women’s Show and was more than impressed. They are not only very good at their jobs but they are the essence of Southern hospitality and charm. It was such an honor for them to ask WHERE WOMEN CREATE to host the stage on which all of the CHA and handmade demonstrations will take place.

If you are close to Orlando, you must come to the event! If you are not, then we will update you daily as to all that is happening!

Visit their website: http://www.southernshows.com/wor/ and see EVERYTHING that will be part of these 4 days. Hope to see you there!

Much love always, Jo
