  Art n' Soul was a specialty "shabby chic" everything store, from handpainted furniture to vintage chinaware, set in the lovely small town of Skaneateles, NY. My main position was to watch over the store and help customers. I also assisted in painting furniture. It gave me a strong sense of work ethic and it set a foundation to my current position of being involved with creative businesses.
