The Meaning Behind

I'm going to break it down for ya'll!  Interested or not -- I thought I would talk about how I came up with the name for my products and shop.  The first part is easy -- HAS -- Hayley Ann Stinson.  The second part, "inspiration" has a little bit more too it. 

I get my inspiration from my family, friends and the outdoors.   Not only did they push for me to give this a shot -- they taught me what I know.  I always followed my mom around as she taught sewing lessons out of the house.  That was years ago.  I would spend weeks out of the summer camping with my family up north.  North Bay is where I did most of the camping with my family.  After highschool, I found myself right back up there attending Canadore College.  It was through all this that I got my admiration and appreciation for the outdoors. Call me a hippy but I'd be perfectly happy camping in the woods with a sleeping bag for the rest of my life.  I only spent a year up north before I graduated and came home only to start another, more science directed, environmental course at another college.  I studied trees, and even got a leaf tattooed on my foot.  It is important to find what makes you happy, and what inspires you.  Thank you everyone who has supported me and if this should fail miserably, atleast I can say I tried!
