Adventures in Consignment

I FINALLY remembered to take my camera with me on a visit to my newest business venture with MissNissCraftworks!  As you can guess by the title, I have stepped into the brick and mortar world of selling goods.  The more I grow and learn as an artist and seller the more I realize that connecting to my local community is necessary for success.  It may have its trials, but in the end my customers know who I am and what I'm all about.

The place I chose to begin my journey is the Quad Cities Food Hub which is located in the Freighthouse on the river in downtown Davenport, IA.  The reason?  I have a strong connection to their mission statement:

"To support local food production, connecting producers and consumers; cultivate education and training programs; preserve and expand sustainable agriculture; foster local economic development; and promote healthy lifestyles through use of local foods, including underserved individuals and communities."

While I do not sell food at the food hub, homesteading with these values is another part of my life.  I feel the match was a perfect fit in mindset and product.  I'm beginning with selling my garden inspired flower bathroom and kitchen goods.  The Food Hub is more than just food, local goods like mine are supported there as well.

Another beautiful thing about consigning with the Food Hub is that I have the opportunity to provide educational experience and do meet and greets with MissNissCraftworks.  This is something I haven't been able to do in the past and am excited for the opportunity.

So, here's to new adventures and a positive experience!  Head down to the Food Hub anytime to get one of my flower inspired, hand made washcloths or scrubbies for your kitchen or bathroom!  They are a wonderful addition to any home and are a treat to use.
