Objectives: Looking to expand my lamp business to more galleries, quality gift stores, or individual sales. I design unique lamps from gourds. They are original, one of a kind, and functional accent lighting. Considered contemporary, fun, and funky they have been well received in galleries in the Atlanta area. I cut out designs in the gourds that are reflected around the room on the walls and ceilings. I do stars, moons, suns, flowers, butterflies, dragonflies, hearts, squiggles, or most anything a customer wants. I make floor lamps, wall sconces, table lamps, night light, swag/hanging lamps, and I'm always working on something new. They create a beautiful warm light in a room and perfect for shelves, desk, mantels, or in that dark conrner that needs a little pizazz. I find that they appeal to all ages, and particularly to the college student.I prefer to wholesale but also do some consignment. If this sounds something that would work for your home or business I would be glad to send a brochure and more details.

Objectives: I am looking for retail stores interested in carrying the most unusual, intricate and elegantly crafted hats I've seen. They are desgined by a friend(inspired by a trip to the Irish countryside) and made abroad. The knitting is so exquisite that professional knitters I've shown them to swear they're handmade. They're not. What they are made with is a careful attention to detail that has gained them a loyal and passionate following. They are made of different materials: pure alpaca, chulpa (a particularly toasty blend of wool and alpaca), and cotton in vibrant and breathtaking colors. The director and actor Forrest Whitaker owns several, one is featured in a Ford TV commercial running now, a popular singer bought 20 in one shot and Tom Brokaw came by and picked one up, among others. In my travels, folks always ask me how they can get one. I've even been offered triple the cost for the one on my head. If you're interested in knitting's best kept secret, please contact me at the above address or at jmacbill@go.com.
