Welcome to all my new followers!
Since so many of you signed up at Lowell Folk Festival, I thought it would be nice to catch you up on my story.
This is the Hen House Blog and it's where I give weekly updates (sometimes more) on my journey. Learning curves, how it's made, some family life, and business happenings.
I don't use AI for these blogs so if it's not polished, good, at least you know I'm a real person.
Notable Post From The Past
The story of my first year (most of it) - This post lays out my entire first year. How I went from knowing nothing to my products being in a store.
The Big Dream - My current goal and how I want to achieve it. It's nice to dream, it's even better to act.
Jewelry Holder One Day Build - See the thought process and the surprising addition I found in the scrap pile.
Just Rolling With It Part 1, and Part 2 - A day so busy it took two blog post just to share it all.
Hen's House Book Reviews - Witness by Whittaker Chambers - If your into true stories of defeating communism (who isn't am-i-right?) I wrote a book review of Witness.

Not much to report on. I'm renovating my bathroom and planning to add enclosed shelves to my living room. Nothing is done yet, next week I'll have enough for a post.
