About Me:

I'm Vanessa Bowers-Yates, proprietress of Blackbird and Butterfly. Blackbird and Butterfly is a handmade body product line still in the start up stage. My mother, Merle Bowers, whose name means Blackbird in french, and my own name, which is the greek word for Butterfly, is the inspiration for our company name. My mother was and is the catalyst for my love for crafting that has grown into this business. I have a small following but I am in the process of a full launch. My site will be fully operational on March 14, 2010... my mom's birthday. I have been down this road before so I (finally) know exactly what I am doing. It hasn't been easy and I have made every entrepreneurial mistake on the planet. You name it and I can tell you exactly why you don't do it. The difference is now that I have made all the mistakes of my past I can now enjoy the success of my future.... and I'm still young enough so that what is actually my comeback seems like the first time out the gate. Ain't life grand! Thanks for taking the time to get to know me better! Vanessa "The Butterfly"
