About the Author:

Coming from a line of small business owners on both sides of the family, Mitzi McCartha finally took the plunge and became her own boss after opening her first retail bead shop in 2005. Having worked as a nurse for eighteen years, it was time to make a change. Three previous years of beading as a hobbyist soon turned into an idea that opening a bead shop would allow for fun in both the business and jewelry designing aspects. Opening a shop was not her first experience in dabbling with small business. Her first encounter in the retail world began in 1995; it included selling gifts and antiques in local antique malls. After five years in the antique s industry, the next venture focused on a service-oriented business, wedding video production. Two years of lugging around heavy video equipment became rather burdensome, and this endeavor came to an end. A brief hiatus ensued, but it was not long until the entrepreneur bug bit again. Never would she dream of a business in beading. Who ever heard of such a thing! Nevertheless, the attempts to create a calorie counting bracelet for use in Weight Watchers� was the springboard for the greatest career move of her life. Starting out as a hobbyist, and making bridal jewelry for a couple of local bridal shops, the desire to create a full-time business became even stronger. Visualizing the end goal, a business that could be fun as well as profitable, Stardust Designs Bead Shoppe was born. Located in Nashville, Tennessee, Stardust Designs Bead Shoppe is a full service bead store, offering jewelry design classes, as well as a host of glass and gemstone beads and findings. Many customers come in not only to buy beading materials and to take classes, but to also get advice on how to sell their jewelry!
