Welcome to Made It Happen Monday with Denise Nichols from Simply Charming Everyday!

Before we get to our interview, you may be noticing a few changes to our site and brand.  You haven't entered the Twilight Zone, Your Creative Focus is the new So Suzy Podcast and a whole lot more!  Tomorrow, we will be rolling out a special podcast episode explaining all of our changes and the why behind them.  (Which is truly EXCITING, if I do say so myself.)  In the interim, feel free to check out the new site, wander through our pages, see some of the cool features we are going to be rolling out and follow us on our new social media sites.

As for right now, what do you say we dive into our latest guest and her story on how she Made It Happen!

 

Meet Denise Nichols

Denise is the owner, maker and designer for Simply Charming Bags.  These hand sewn beauties hold everything from your latest crafting project, to your MISTI collection and so much more.  Since the age of 10, she has been sewing doll clothes, dresses, quilts, Raggedy Ann and Andy dolls, Prom dresses and most recently her famous Bunkie Bags and MISTI Zip Pouches.  Hear about how she got her start, the bags she designs and the new products she has lined up for 2017.

How a Jar of Spaghetti Sauce Can Inspire a Bunkie Business

It has happened to all of us at one time or another, our hands are full, the plastic bags are overloaded with heavy cans and jars and at the worst possible moment, the bottom gives out and your food scatters, rolls and shatters.  Personally, my focus would have been on the fact I had red sauce all of the side of my brand new white car.  However, Denise focused on HOW to make sure it would never happen again.

Hear how a spaghetti sauce parking lot massacre inspired the Bunkie Bag!
