Flutterbye Paper Company

Five years ago, I became a 42 year old widow. That was not in my life plan. About three years ago, I began to pray God what do I do now? When He answered I thought I was crazy.

More often than not I will be found in my craft room creating something. So when the opportunity for participating in a craft fair arose I decided to test my theory about God's answer to my question. I decided that if God truly wanted me to pursue the craft business, I would sell a lot of the crafts I made.

I did not even sell enough to make my money back on the booth fee. I was so disappointed. I thought "See you are crazy! God did not tell you to start a craft business! That was all in your head!"

After the disaster of the craft fair, I began to pray in earnest.
My prayer: Dear God, Please give me something to do. I am going crazy! Please give me a job opportunity or a sign of what Your will is. Please!
His Answer: "When are you going to do what I have already told you to do?"
"You mean the craft business thing?" I can't do that. I didn't sell anything the last time I tried. That was crazy idea I had. That can't be what you are talking about.
"The last time, did you include Me? Did you stop and pray to Me and ask for direction in your plan? Do this as worship unto Me and I will provide people and resources to help you."
So I listened. I began to craft what I loved instead of what I thought people would buy. I asked for God's blessing and He followed through. So The Flutterbye Paper Company was born.

We are going to be here at the Boot Country Craft Show on Saturday. Make plans to come out and see us!!

Got the signs posted around town, and the banner hung at the entrance to the arena property. Naturally I will decorate it more before the show, but at least now anyone who drives by will know that is where the show is!
