Since returning from Denver my head is spinning with ideas. Many I have had before, but this time they are stronger and clearer. This week I am going to post a few of them. Let me know what you think.
Another idea, fun and exciting…
I want to design my own holiday wrapping paper and all-occasion paper, too. And, a line of greeting cards, pictures and words both my own.
I want to design my own signature shipping boxes with eco-friendly packaging. And my own mailing envelopes, too.
Then I want to ship gifts and packages all over the world, artfully wrapped in my self-designed paper, including a personal note written on a card from my own line and shipped in my signature boxes, with eco-friendly packaging, and a secret prize hidden inside.
I want people to check their mailboxes with anticipation, looking for that signature box, recognizing it immediately, knowing it came from The Dreaming Cafe.
I see lots of books being shipped. My own books. I see gifts that bring tears and smiles, encouragement and hope.
It may just be another idea, but it feels good; it feels right.
I think it’s time I took this idea out to play.

“makes you feel like a kid again’…what a great way to look at it. Thanks for your enthusiastic support!!!
Wow! Another great idea. I liked the huge book store one and this one would go well with it. The two fit together quite well. I am looking forward to seeing your designs. I know that I would definitely look forward to a box coming like you described with a surprise inside. That’s the kind of feel-good bonus that makes you feel like a kid again.
