Members DoubleC Posted March 15, 2015 Author Members Report Posted March 15, 2015 I wrote yesterday about my kickstarter project to get to Sheridan. I want to take some classes to learn new things that will help my business. I had plans to go that fell through and I was left holding a bag of nothing. I only want this to get there and eat, not for frills while I'm there. I would take classes closer if there were any but VT is kinda a lonely state to be if you're a leatherworker. If you can toss in a few bucks, I'd really appreciate it. Al Bane as you know has upped the ante. I'm making key chains for anyone who donates anything. However if you donate $20.00 Al will make you a cuff, 50 and he'll make you a belt, 400 and he'll make you vest and 1000 he will make you a brand new leather jacket. Thanking my backers in advance.

Members chriscraft Posted March 15, 2015 Members Report Posted March 15, 2015 Wonderful idea on a way to get some leatherwork training. I've been reading about these crowd funding programs and they sound ideal. You should also look into gofundme as this is more of a donation based fund raiser. Your story behind the trip that fell through should also be included. Quote
Members DoubleC Posted March 15, 2015 Author Members Report Posted March 15, 2015 Big gun I figured out what was wrong with the website. It's an old link, I've taken my site down since then. I'm going to remove it from my signature right now!!! Thanks again for the help. Cheryl Quote http://www.etsy.com/shop/DoubleCCowgirl
Members DoubleC Posted March 15, 2015 Author Members Report Posted March 15, 2015 Thanks ChrisCraft, I will look into the other funding options and also add the story about the funds I've been saving for this. Cheryl Quote http://www.etsy.com/shop/DoubleCCowgirl

Don't forget for anyone donating 5 bucks or more I'll be making you a keychain with your state initials on it, or you initials on it, or a 'horse eye' And Al Bane, lovely man that he is, has offered to make anyone donating 20 a cuff, 50 a belt, 400 a vest, and 1000 a new jacket of your choice. So jump in and have some fun for 5 bucks Quote http://www.etsy.com/shop/DoubleCCowgirl

Members DoubleC Posted March 20, 2015 Author Members Report Posted March 20, 2015 (edited) This is the new [picture that was suppose to post but don't know what happened. I am getting closer to my goal with the help of you very special people. Please don't foget that besides me making you all a much better key chain than shown in the top Al Bane for Leather is making cuffs, belts, vests and jackets for me for products that you get. These are just a few more of the projects I learned to make on my own but the classes would help so much. This is my business, my way of life. I've had this business 4 years and I have made some things I'm very proud of but I am at the point where I need some guidance. My community money will pay for all the classes I can squeeze in on the workshop schedule, but I have to get there to take them. .

Contributing Member Denise Posted March 20, 2015 Contributing Member Report Posted March 20, 2015 Cheryl, I have combined all your separate threads on this one subject into one post, as we usually do with duplicate posts on this forum. I have left it in the Leatherwork Conversation forum as that is where it has garnered the most interest. If you wish me to move it into another forum, please let me know. Additional posts regarding this topic can be added to this thread. All the best in getting to Sheridan. Quote
Members DoubleC Posted March 20, 2015 Author Members Report Posted March 20, 2015 Thank you so much Denise. This will make it so much easier. I think the people trying to argue have decided to leave me alone. And thanks about Sheridan. Cheryl Quote http://www.etsy.com/shop/DoubleCCowgirl
