My mother is turning 50 in April and I want to get her something really special as a present. My Dad and I are throwing her a surprise party already and he is getting her jewelry so I don’t wanna get her jewelry too. I’ve already made her a scrapbook for another occassion so I can’t do that. She’s not really into cooking, fancy art, and I don’t wanna get her clothes. I can’t spend alot of money, but I’m trying to save now that’s why I’m thinking about it early.

I want to get her something special and memorable—any ideas would be really appreciated.

I have made art jewelry & sold rather successfully at an art festival in Tucson. I’ve been told that my hand knitted scarves could be sold as well. However, my true ‘want’ is to sew rainbow quilts & make rainbow candles to sell in Chicago’s *** neighborhood, called ‘Boy Town’.

My plan is to start with Throws that I can make for much less expense then full quilts & use that money to start making some actual quilts & then use that money to be able to buy beads to make high-end rainbow jewelry or to do the Candles…

After getting into the ‘gay’ market, I’m thinking of trying out ‘Goth’ & ‘leather’ culture products… Like making pillow covers out of bandanas in “Flagging” colors… (Tech a *** product as well but a bit more leather.)

I guess what I’m asking is:
Do you think there is a market for my ideas?

Would you buy such a product?

How much would you pay for a rainbow quilted fleece throw?
(I’ll make all summer to sell in Autumn)

Any advice?

Thx!

I don’t see it if it’s here. Walking through supermarkets and shopping malls, blindly staring, pretending everything is just fine, afriad to show feeling. The music is dead, without any real emotion. The movies are all escapist crap. Money and luxury, big screen TVs, SUVs, and jewelry rule the world. Why? No passion. No passion for the things that matter, for what’s in the heart, for love and art and music. I speak of music not created on a computer, but on an instrument. Where is the passion? Oh, yes, we see people with a passion for violence and death, but is there any passion for life, for adventure, for what is real and true? Or are we doomed to live and die as robots, doing what is expected of us, living by the rules, afraid to speak out of turn, of being politically incorrect, of what other people might think. We don’t have to be out of control to stop being controlled, do we? Tell me what you think, and I mean say it out right, like you’ve got a pair!
