READ DOWN TO FIND ABOUT MY SPECIAL OFFER.

First of all I want to thank you for checking out my store and my "About Me" page. 

I came up with the name Platinum because it is a strong alloy.  I want to be a strong seller.  The So and Sews gives me the opportunity to sell anything and everything.  I started out by selling fabric and different things I had made.  <p>I used to do craft shows but having a tremendous amount of inventory that was left over, the booth fee, set up and take down and sitting there, I found out e-bay is a much easier outlet for me.   With e-bay, I can make one thing and list it.  If it doesn't sell, I can post it in the store.  If it does sell, I can make another one.  That is the joy of selling on e-bay.  Also, I can reach so many more people in all areas of the world that I would not be able to doing a local craft show.

E-bay is also an outlet for me.   My mom passed away on September 14th, 2005.  She was 92.  I was her full time caregiver.  On April 16, 2008, my dad passed away peacefully into the outstretched arms of Jesus. He was 93. He wanted to live to be 100, but his health was not very well.  It has been extremely hard for me to come to grips with this, but I know it is God's will.  He was ready and his quality of life was not good.  In the end he was bedridden and just laying there.  That was not my dad and the way he was.  He always wanted to be doing something.  

I am now able to concentrate more on my sales on e-bay and hopefully I will be your best salesperson. 

My husband is on disability also.  So, needless to say, I need some type of outlet.  E-bay fulfills that need for me.  He has now become my full time cutter.  He cuts twice as fast as I do.  I can't keep up with him sometimes.  

I have been sewing and creating for more years than I care to remember.  I love fabrics and colors and putting them together.  What a joy when I read a feedback of someone that really likes what I have done.  Another thing that is really awesome is that there is something of mine in every state in the United States.  To me, that is mind-boggling!!

Well, that's my story.  Thank you so much for reading my story.  I hope you will take some of your precious time and look at my things.  Maybe even buy something.

If you sign up for my newsletter after the first of the year and buy something, your first shippment will be free, no matter how much or what you buy, your order will be postage free.   This my gift to you for signing up.  Just let me know when you check out that you have signed up. I look forward to a banner year in 2010 and on and I have all of you wonderful e-bayers to thank for that. 

God Bless!!!!           Sharon
