And explain why you would like to do this business

I’ve always been interested in different kinds of handcrafted jewelry, such as macramé, beading, Chinese Knot tying, and other kinds of knotting and stitching with cord or wire.

So I’m thinking I'd like to go into business selling and making that kind of jewelry. It wouldn't even have to be a big production, just a few people making and selling bracelets, necklaces, and other accessories. Maybe if we become popular and more people start buying our products we could even open a small shop and take special orders. We could also have classes, where we teach people how to make their own jewelry. I was thinking that my cousin could help me since she is quite good with her hands; I think she has some friends who are good at macramé so they could help also. We could put an ad in the newspaper or on the Internet and sell our wares that way.

During holidays we'd travel around China and sell our jewelry at famous parks and places that tourists frequent. We'd each just make the things that we're best at so that we get a bunch of quality products in as short an amount of time as possible.

The main reason I'd start a business like this is because it’s something that I enjoy doing, and I don’t think I could work at a job that I don’t like.
