I started teaching.
I thought for a while, my husband and I own a business.
I helped out.
And then when the business was winding down, I was like, oh, I really needed to work to keep working.
I was just too young to retire.
So I really brainstormed.
And then pillows just kept coming back to me because my friends always asked me to make them for them.
I made them for my sisters.
I made them for everybody.
So I'm like, okay, pillows, you know.
It was funny because everyone kept discouraging me.
They're saying, why would you want to sell pillows?
How many pillows can you sell?
This is ridiculous.
Nobody buys pillows.
But I bought a ton of them and made a ton of them.
So I know women like them and people in general like them.
Okay, yes, you're right.
I should correct that.
I made decorative pillows, the couch pillows, the sofa pillows, and also the decorative bed pillows that people used.
