Personalized Gifts

I am trying to decide whether are not to sell my Personalized Gifts business.

It is so hard to know what the public wants in doing gifts inadvance.

Any suggestions?

How large is your profit margin?

It varies according to the items.

For my daughter's kitchen shower I just bought an apron - it's brown with pink polka dots and I'm having her initial monogrammed on the bib of the apron and giving that to her with a Kitchen Aid mixer and an all chocolate cookbook!!!!

As to keeping or selling - does it cost you anything to keep it? If not, keep it. A new business usually takes at least a year to see a good profit.

It is all paid for and was a huge investment!

I love the apron also.

My favorite kitchen gift is a personalized cutting board. They are so beautiful and can be displayed.

I have yet to do one for myself!

I usually give one as a wedding gift to very special friends with their date of their wedding and they names.

IF I could get their wedding picture before the wedding (haha) it would be nicer.

But usually I give the gift to them at their shower.

But after getting ready to do one for a friend that broke up just before the wedding, I am afraid to any more inadvance.

I understand modesty and all that but why would your daughter wear an apron in the shower.

And what part of the country do you live where they have showers in the kitchen?????

You ain't right!

I just hope she wears more than the apron in the kitchen!
