Store description
Welcome! My name is Nina, I'm a homeschool mom of five. As you can imagine homeschoolers love, love, love their books! The Shop Around the Corner has a special place in our homeschool. We utilize this shop as part of our children's homeschool education. When you order from my store you are not only helping to support our homeschool, but you are taking an active role in helping them learn the ins and outs of online based business. Every week we sit down and enter inventory together. We talk about profit and loss. We set reasonable goals for the week ahead. We talk about fix cost vs variable cost. Etc. Etc. Thank you so much for being a part of our homeschool journey!…
