New Paracord Colors Ordered!
I found an online distributor that has 94 different colors of paracord, 94!!! That's so exciting for me! The best part is that they have sizes from 5' to 1000' in all of those colors. The only down side to this distributor (paracordmaster.com) is that they are a fairly new company and they are so popular that they already have everything on backorder. I have to wait until Nov. 4th for them to ship out my order even though I made that order on Oct. 14th. Hopefully I get the colors by the 14th so that I can start catching up on my customer's orders. I have also been working on a new product but I'm still in the practicing stage. Hopefully I'll get the hang of it and get the first version out soon.

ParaStatement
ParaStatement. It's the new name of the line of paracord projects I have been working on. I have decided to try to turn this hobby of mine into a source of income since I love making all of these projects! I'm excited but at the same time a little worried that it won't turn into anything. I don't have to put a lot of money into the projects so there is not much of a loss if it doesn't pick up. I need to come up with a slogan that explains the name ParaStatement but don't have the brain power to do so right now. I have also been trying to figure out how to put a Facebook Like Box onto my blog but I think that will happen once I get the time to look into it. For now, I'll just post a link to the page on this post: ParaStatement
Once I get the page moving along, I'll start adding more products to the albums and such. Lately I have been trying to figure out a better way to make belts but don't have the resources for it at this time. I also tried making a halter last night. It turned out pretty well, I just need to figure out how I'm going to add more to it so it can make a statement! I know the page is pretty bare right now, but go check it out and let me know what you think.

Paracord Projects
I really liked the survival bracelets I saw online and in the store but I just couldn't convince myself to buy one. Why spend $10 on 6 feet of paracord that I would not want to unravel when I really needed it? I decided to start looking around online for paracord and decided to start making my own. They are surprisingly easy to make and look awesome! I made my first one for Tommy when he went on his hunting trip. My sister liked it so asked me to make her one, and once she had one, her fiance wanted one as well haha It just snowballed from there. My sister calls me after she's done with her shift to let me know I have 10 orders to fill for survival bracelets!
I am so happy that people like the bracelets I make, which are 14 feet of paracord not just 6 feet. I decided to try making some belts as well, here's my first one:
I really enjoy making these projects, I'm hoping to make even more belts with different types of weaves and knots as well as different projects like leashes, collars, necklaces, etc. This is what I have been doing to pass the time. I dropped Tommy off at the airport on Monday morning, he's in South Carolina for some training and won't get back until Friday. My phone decided to lock me out during this time so I can't call or text anyone! I've been looking online for solutions but it looks like the only way to fix this is to do a hard reset but this will erase all of my pictures and data :( I'm going to try to find a different way to get it working without losing anything. Hopefully I can.
