Last week I gave out some great tips on making m*oney in your business, one of which was - for one week accept all the f*ree money that comes your way – such as a friend offering to buy dinner. (For the whole article and to see that suggestion in context, click here. )
On that note, I have some great news for you if you are a workroom to the design field fabricating window treatments, bedding, etc.
My very good friend Susan Kostelecky, the host of the Custom Sewing Institute, has teamed up with the Helser Brothers, the great purveyors of awesome window hardware, finials, and poles, and the Helser Brothers are GIVING AWAY the last available seat to this year’s Custom Sewing Institute Creative Camp! All you have to do is say why you should go to camp in 50 words or less (and pay for your travel) and YOU could be the lucky winner. (You’ll want to check out the rest of their blog too – they are funny guys!)
The online application needs to be filled out before the 15th, so you do need to get right on it. Click here to enter. And talk about f*ree m*oney – this is worth $1250.00!
Pictured here are a couple of projects from last year’s event – this is good stuff! Be sure to contact www.csisews.com directly to get on their waiting and newsletter list.

On a related but different note, I mentioned last week that Verizon has revamped all of its pricing, but you have to call and find out if the new pricing will benefit you. And one of our readers – thanks Michelle! – posted that AT and T is doing the same. So if you use either of those cell providers, be sure to get in touch with them.
Be sure to apply for Helser Brother’s great give-away – if you are a workroom, nothing should be holding you back. Let me know how it goes!
