My physical store is going to be closing in June. I can't handle the overhead to have the storefront in town. I will continue to do custom orders, but go back to doing them out of my home as I was before I attempted to have a brick and mortar.
It was fun while it lasted, but it is way too much work to end up in the red. I realized I had been working 14-20 hours a day 6-7 days a week for 1 1/2 years without a vacation at all. And at the end of the year, I ended up in the hole several thousand dollars. I guess I really am more the creative type and less the business type. I can't keep track of numbers the way I need to. I'm also not willing to compromise my ethics to make a buck. So for all those reasons and a few I haven't mentioned, I'm going to close down at the end of June.
If you're anywhere nearby, stop in June for freaking huge clearance liquidation sales.

Somebody (*me*) needs to figure out a way to stop being too poor to pay the bills.
