Beautiful You Conference

B. Richer Designs is sponsoring a Beautiful You Women's conference in Washington, D.C. this weekend. (www.beautifulyouconference.com) It is our first event in which our blankets will be sold beyond word-of-mouth sales. We're praying that women will be blessed by the event, for exciting feedback about our blankets, continued peace, and only the perfect number of sales that will not overwhelm me when it comes to getting them produced!!! YIKES! I'm planning to update the blog and let you know how it all goes.

God Bless!!

B. Richer Designs joyfully welcomes Colleen Martin!!

The other day I was thinking about how much I enjoy the idea of doing this whole B. Richer Designs thing, but how much more I would enjoy it if i was sharing it with someone. A few hours later I was thinking about how appreciative I have been of Colleen's encouragement and even hard work she's been putting into an event we're doing in Washington, D.C. Suddenly, that evening it occurred to me that Colleen would be the perfect partner to join me in this journey. I called her and we discussed it.

We have both been praying about it, and I believe are in agreement that this is something worth pursuing together. I am so excited to have her gifts and talents merging with mine. I believe this is going to be a VERY positive experience for both of us. And I believe it will mean a great deal of growth on both of our parts, as growth has been an integral part of our relationship history. Colleen and I have a miraculous testimony that we share regarding a tumultuous past. If you ever get a chance to inquire about it personally, please do. We love to share what God has done between us through prayer.

Colleen has a business degree from George Washington University. She is eager to put her skills and gifts into action in a new and exciting way. She is a woman of God and dedicated to prayer, qualities that will always be present in anyone actively participating in B. Richer Designs. I pray that I will grow as a woman of prayer through my experience and accountability with her. What I love best about my products is that I have no personal ambition to make a great deal of money. I simply want to see God's Will be done. I have no idea how B. Richer Designs is apart of his Will, but I do believe it must be as it seems to have taken on life beyond anything I had planned.

A Common Vision

From the beginning I wanted most of the money that was earned by the fruit of my hands to be dedicated to the work of God. I am so excited about blessing God with my work. When I shared this with my sister I could tell that she believed that this was definitely something in which she wanted to be involved. I know that she will be a great source of accountability, and a great prayer partner when it comes to deciding where to sew monetary seeds.

I will be eager to update you about the success of this partnership and events that occur along the way.


Thanks for participating in this blog. Leave feedback wherever you wish. I look forward to hearing comments and fielding questions along the way!

God Bless!

A periwinkle fleece with light blue lettering and satin. This blanket turned out beautifully, but then there was no doubt it would as the colors were selected by my dear friend Devon who is one of the most gifted designers I know.
