In my presentation to Steemit, I told them that one of my talents is the creation of accessories for girls. Today I will tell you how it was that I discovered this ability that I did not previously know I possessed.
It was December of the year 2017, Venezuela turned into a disaster, the profits did not even cover the expenses of the basic basket (not very different from the current situation) ... That year I had not been able to enjoy school holidays with my children, because I was very ill and spend the whole month of August in the city of Caracas and then my recovery was quite slow, anyway, I was worried that I would not be able to please my children at least in some detail at Christmas, I remembered childhood and the emotion I felt when I opened my gifts, I felt frustrated, I thought ... "It is not possible that a professional with a job supposedly worthy can not dress their children, much less give them a gift at such a significant time year"...
My 10-year-old daughter had listened to me several times about the situation and our economic conditions, one day she approached me and said "Mommy, the gift I want for Christmas is that you buy me some beautiful hair ties ... that's not so expensive. " I did not answer, but that request was echoing in my mind ... "A few ties", immediately a spark ignited inside me, I remembered seeing in previous days on the Facebook network tutorials to learn how to make very simple bonds, take My phone and I started surfing the net, all the tutorials I saw were super easy, so I went out to buy the necessary material to try to make the Christmas gift to my daughter.
My girl (María José with 10 years old)
I remember I made two pairs of ribbons in fuchsia color not very well finished and with some details, my daughter seemed beautiful, I took a picture and I uploaded them to my facebook profile ...
I had not spent an hour when I had a lot of comments and questions about my headbands: do you do them ?, Do you sell them? How much do they cost? ... the spark went on again and I did not hesitate to put a price on my creations, that week I made more than a dozen, I started with new designs and colors, learning a new technique every day, I did not know that with my I could do such beautiful things and the publications in my networks were my best ally.
Today thanks to the mercy of God and the blessing that has given me to be creative and entrepreneur I continue to make my ties, this activity is very rewarding for me to be making them relax me amazingly has also been a source of extra income very good to face the terrible economic crisis of my country, I say it without remorse sometimes it causes me to give up my work and formalize the business of ties, because I earn much more ... but I know that in his time God will give me the address and it will be his will that makes ...
To finish I tell you that today I think that December I was so worried about the gifts of my daughters and one of them was the one who with her request gave me the best Christmas gift and this gift became my passion today ... Let's not forget that perseverance and perseverance make the difference, sometimes with the simplest things we can solve big problems ... A Hug!
