I love making this stuff, and people just love them. I sell at art shows , and am in the
process of retiring. Would appreciate finding a successor, willing to train many.
Formerly was a community organizer and neighborhood developer in Milwaukee, Des
Moines, and Cincinnati. See a small sample of stuff at www.earsearsears.com
Learning to start and run my own business was the third chapter of my life. First as a
youth worker, teacher, and counselor in Madison, Alexandria, VA, and Milwaukee.
Formulatedalternative political organizations, and recruited candidates for local
offices in Milwaukee. Next as a local government employee in Des Moines, Cincinnati,
and North Fond du Lac, and elected official in Fond du Lac.
I began forming this business in 2014. Had one friend helping me sell at festivals, but
the rest of the work is scheduling applications and payments, keeping records and
filing taxes, refreshing all original jewelry inventory through designing and making,
building displays, designing signage, and managing the webpage.
