First of all Merry. Christmas you filthy animals! Today requires some gratitude and reflection. I’ve always been appreciative of Christmas, its a time to celebrate the Birth of Christ, conjugate with family, and an overall celebration of holiday cheer. However, there’s an underrated experience to Christmas, that’s the Christmas Miracle.
The Christmas miracle occurs when the thing you need or want to exactly happen, actually happens, and it’s in the most miraculous way possible. Today is actually the five year anniversary of what I regard as a special Christmas miracle, my first sale!

I.BACK IN 2017…
Well back in 2017, I actually haven’t made a sale yet. I got plenty of compliments and possible buyers but nothing really came from it. On the flip side of potential customers, I had naysayers, critics, and ridiculers. Back when I first started, one of my biggest criticisms was that I charged too much. I came out the gate charging $150 for hoodies,$80 for t-shirts, etc. My whole logic was that I would charge for quality of designs, what I would actually pay, and effort put into the work. The funny thing is people who criticized me were the ones who would easily spend on luxury items from other brands, I guess I wasn’t worth it huh? lol
