Introduction: I'd say it's because of the original thought. I make custom furnishings for my clients and their ideas are unique. Although, everything has been done before to some degree, it can still be fresh and new with the right timing. When creating something for myself, I usually think of my childhood. I like to incorporate nostalgia and romance, which I'm a sucker for.....most people are.
Remember that saying, "Do something you love and you never work a day in your life." Well, my "job" makes me feel like I retired at 32.
