I Am Black History

The month of February was amazing! I flew out to Texas to celebrate my granddaughter’s first birthday. I was a part of Black Owned Business Expo at Hanes Mall in Winston Salem, NC. I got my first FBA (Filled By Amazon) order and all three items available have been selling very well.

When I think about all that I’ve accomplished through my handcrafted women’s fashion accessory brand Accented Glory, I realize the legacy I’m building for my children and grandchildren. I Am Black History and will continue to celebrate everyday.
