I am so grateful for everyone who has encouraged me in my entrepreneurial journey throughout the past year! You are amazing, and I really don't know if I would be here without you guys. I am so excited to introduce you to my new brand new perspective designs!!
For a while now I have the brand name new perspectives in my mind, which actually started one Summer while at my grandparent's cottage in the beautiful countryside of Finland. This Summer I had an idea for a fundraiser for a Finnish Refugee Charity (I can't remember the exact name). I was inspired because it was the year when there were suddenly lots of refugees needing homes in Europe, and I wanted to be able to help in some way.
So I took out my grandmother's sewing machine, and my left over fabrics, and started looking for something I could make to sell. Don't ask me how I got there, but I ended up deciding to make fabric glasses covers. I think it had something to do with thinking about the wasted space of all the hard covers we were taking with us for our normal glasses and sunglasses. Anyways, I wanted to share this as a background story.
As I was looking into what I wanted to sew, I had tried sewing a bag that could be reversible which didn't make the cut for something that I could sell. I remember loving the parable of reversing the bag to represent changing perspectives in life. This was when I first had an inkling of a business called New Perspectives and an idea was formed.
Forward on, and after a year of Laura's Embroidery I decided it was time to incorporate more inspired designs. I also didn't want to just be limited to embroidery, so I thought it would be nice to add the word designs to the end to incorporate that. And so a brand was born!
New perspective designs is going to be mainly inspired by my Christian faith. I believe in the importance of remembering what matters most in life, and so that is why I am going to design designs that will allow us to remember important life lessons. And so each design will come with a note explaining the story behind the design.
For the month of May I will be coming out with a new design every week, available for purchase, along with a blog post explaining the story behind the design. A lot of prayer is going into each design, and I believe each design will bring something special into your lives!!
Thank you for all your support,
Laura from new perspective designs
