About Us

Marilyn's Picture

For right now, our company consists of my Mother-In-Law, Faye Waller, my Father, Leland Bingham, my daughter, Angelique Metz, and myself, Marilyn Southmayd. We have handcrafted products that we have been creating but need a place to sell our products as we live in the middle of nowhere.

By the middle of nowhere, I mean that our closest Walmart is 40 miles away, our nearest bead shop is anywhere from 70-150 miles away, and to get fried chicken (I'm not talking Dairy Queen chicken strips) we have to drive 25 miles. We have a local grocery store, post office, General Dollar and Family Dollar, and oh yes, we have a video store and a Dairy Queen. We have 3 restaurants that I know of but they mainly serve Mexican food. Businesses don't tend to last too long in this town. We are supposed to have approximately 3000 people living here (mostly out on the ranches around us). We are one of the small oil field towns here in South Texas on Hwy 59. See map below. We are right below the first "e" of Freer (in Red toward bottom of map).

With the price of gas, it is more economical for us to create a site on the web to market our products than to travel all over the countryside going to craft shows.

In the future, I plan to let others within our community place some of their crafts online for sale. This will help the economy of this little town and help the people get some personal spending money.
