Strengthening the Economy Starts at Home
I was reminded of an old but true holiday message this morning when I opened Facebook. Here it is:
It is great to support your local artisans, but buying anywhere and at any store in your area fuels our economy and helps preserve jobs. You and others -- enmasse -- taking up this message will not only preserve jobs, but create jobs if you don't just buy local, but buy American-made!
I took economics in college -- lots of it -- and one thing I know, when politicians talk about government creating jobs, they are blowing smoke! The government in any way, shape or form is generally a hindrance to job creation. The more programs and incentives it promotes, the more it cuts into your disposable income.
We, the people, create jobs by maintaining and increasing demand for goods and services. And a thriving, healthy economy is good news for each of us -- it adds to our job security and along the way more disposable income.
So give yourself and your family, neighbors and friends an early holiday gift -- buy early, buy often, buy local!

NORTHWEST IOWA ANNIE SLOAN CHALK DEMO ALL DAY NOV 17!
Jan Hersom, owner and designer of JH Design Studio, has kindly invited this "Jan" to bring Annie Sloan Chalk Paint into her Holiday Open House, Thursday Nov 17, for an all day demo! Come one, come all from surrounding towns and counties! We will be bringing supplies if you are in a buying mood!
An all day demo and Q & A will be held so you can see how easy this paint is to work with, odorless, fast drying and how a project or two can be tackled in a single day! Join us right at Jan's studio at the corner of Highway 10 and 3rd St (the main drag into Laurens downtown). Will have fun and some surprises! If you have colors you are interested in and can give me advance notice on what to bring, that will be great as space will be limited in my vehicle. Visit http://www.tlcvintagecollection.com/ to review color selections, including the new Coco, French Linen and Pure White! News supplies arriving this week in anticipation of the event.
I will also be packaging starter chalk paint kits at a good value for you if you have problems knowing how to get started. More on that soon!
