This week we painted two of our nightstand that we had previously and they look really nice. Its nice to see things that look older and out of style refinished to look new and fun. I think that is the most gratifying thing about owning a business. Its interesting to think that this is how all small businesses start. I was in Arizona a few weeks ago and stopped to find a piece of furniture at this what looked like run down place. As I walked in I found really nice furniture that had been at Marriot resorts. They buy the furniture when it is going to be replaced and then sell it to make a profit. They had a warehouse full of nice looking furniture. I asked how long the owner had been in business and he said about 22 years. It started by just buying old furniture from garage sales. As I think about my small business periodically I think about how interesting it is that something this small can turn into something big if I wanted it to. This week has been fun to find some nice furniture again. All I have been able to think about this week is how this small business that I have could turn into something much bigger if I had the desire.
