1980: The middle child of Sandra
& Daniel Madsen was born. Elizabeth Erin Madsen. The one & only.
1985: Always getting busted for
never listening in school, daydreaming and testing the rules (I
believe this may have continued into adulthood).
1988: $$$$, or should I say 25
cent signs? Peddling lemonade at our summer long stand in Clinton
Corners at a young age of eight.
1992: Babysitters Club Wannabes.
Charged three dollars a head for neighborhood children to come to
a Play Day put on by my sister, best friend and I. ($3?? - what
a deal!)
1993: Miles of Spandex. Polka Dot
to Hot Pink. Basement Fashion Designers with my best friend Mara.
Vision Yes. Designers? Not in this lifetime.
1994: Hated the name Elizabeth,
Liz, Lizzy, and any form of the name while growing up. Everyone
always referred to me as Beth. My how the times have changed.
1992-1994: Garage boutique. Created by Beth &
Kelly Madsen offering second hand clothing & household items in a “garage
boutique” atmosphere….a.k.a lipstick on a garage.
1990-1995: Impromptu Fashion Show
Anyone? Saved up all of my money for day long shopping trips and
then showed everyone what I bought (Funny enough… I still
do this).
1998-2002: College.
Fashion Merchandising & a Direct Response Retailing degree and
a dream of owning Beth’s Boutique. Who knew that I would do
it and change the name.
2004: Pleasant reminders from
loved ones… “When are you going to open your own boutique?"
Grandma Helen always asked. In tribute to my Grandma’s persistence
I have the same gum drops that she always had on her coffee table
while I was growing up, in my boutique to share with my friends
& customers. Persistence pays. Apparently, gum drops get you fat because if you don't see them it's because I ate them all!
2007- 2008- Entrepreneurial Spirit,
Shopping, & Fashion (and energy-of course) were the ingredients
for a boutique of my own. Come see what twenty eight years of daydreaming
and planning got us. |
