Long ago, in college, I bought this card. It had a single quote by Carl Sagan, with a pretty drawing of a window looking onto a luscious garden. It read, "I don´t know where I´m going, but I´m on my way..."
I felt identified with this quote because sometimes, even if you have a master plan, life throws curves at you, and you find yourself once again lost in the beginning of what may become an amazing journey.
And so, I guess I should begin our story with how the idea of Egg Nest began...
I have been busy being a mom for five wonderful years. Its been an amazing journey filled with a whirlwind of learning while in doubt and frustration, but beyond all its been filled with happiness.
However, amidst finding the perfect balance between being a wife, mother, and woman, I felt I had left someone behind. That little person inside of me that once said "I want to be a business woman in New York".
For months I had been debating on opening a small store called Eggs Nest. I was inspired by my little girls and a small passion for birds I've had since I was a child. But life again took over and in between buying a house and my oldest daughter starting school, we had no budget for a small store.
And so, once again life threw a curve, and my prayers for direction were answered. I got an opportunity to have a small craft segment on a local channel. I know it sounds huge, me on TV every week! I was overwhelmed and the ideas just started flowing.
Motivated by all this excitement, I decided to talk to my best friend, one of the people whom I admire most, for her logic sense of life, and because she is one of the most talented crafters I know. We sat down for lunch with our little munchkins playing around us, and this marked the beginning of our partnership and the birth of Eggs Nest.
