2020 marks my 20th year in business. When I started Cramer Coverings I never would have envisioned my 20th year starting out like this. Actually, I don’t think I even envisioned that I would make it to 20 years way back then. But, I did! I built this business, love what I do, and I have no intention of throwing in the towel. With that being said I am still open and working, but will only be doing phone/dm estimates for new customers. In home estimates will resume when this storm clears. I am also able to deliver fabric sample books to you via porch drop off.
On a personal note, it has been heartbreaking for me to see so many small businesses, and people in general, hurt by this situation. I know the passion and dedication it takes to start and keep a small business thriving. From the upholstery and design businesses I follow on social media in other countries to the small businesses here in the United States and in Findlay, Ohio, my heart is with you. On a local level I have been amazed at how my community in Findlay has pulled together to help each other in these difficult times. I see the stories daily on social media and it reassures me that we will all get through this together, even if we are socially distanced.
It seems as though I might have a bit more free time on my hands. With that time I plan to work on some projects that I will be listing for sale. I am a bit of a fabric and furniture hoarder and now I might finally have time to bring some of my own ideas to life. My hope is to have some fun with it on my page and use part of the proceeds to do some gift card giveaways to help support other small businesses.
Stay tuned…and thank you so much to every customer over the last 20 years that has trusted me to make their furniture pretty again. - Alisha
