![[Giveaway] Epson Artisan 800 Wireless All-in-One Photo Printer](http://plainjanemom.com/wp-content/themes/arthemia-premium/scripts/timthumb.php?src=/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/41ivfsulfzl_ss400_.jpg&w=175&h=150&zc=1&q=100)
Do you have your own business? I want to link to you.
[Updated below]
When I shop, I prefer 'Mom and Pop' style businesses where I can meet the owners and feel a real connection with them. When I buy things online I like to patronize stores owned by the person who makes what I'm buying.
I figure I'm not the only one out there who feels this way, so I thought I'd start a directory of businesses owned by actual humans. If that describes you, please tell me about your biz using this form and I'll add you to my directory. (I guess I'll eventually have to come up with rules about sites I won't link to, but for now it is pretty loose ;)
I can think of lots of you wonderful readers who have great businesses — you may sell on Etsy, maybe you're a web designer, you're an architect, you do construction, you've got an eBay shop, you sell funny shirts on Cafe Press, … whatever it is, just let me know.
Fill out this form and I'll get you linked up
There will be no Walmarts or Amazons on this list. Just regular people Living the Dream: working for themselves!
(If you submitted your site before 5PM Pacific time on the 18th and you don't see it on the directory, please resubmit it. I'm sorry… :)
I LOVE to shop at mom and pop shops and even bought my mom a Christmas gift off ETSY, it was my first purchase from there but I LOVED it and it was so easy to do! I'd be interested to hear of some of the great places you hear about through your blog too :)

Hey there!
I love your idea! Unfortunately, I can't submit my business since I don't actually make any of the items myself. I do however, sell lots of items that moms would love and could make their lives easier (secure online shopping & free shipping). I'll check back to see if you open it up to Mom owned businesses.
P.S. Have you tried the LeapFrog computer games for Chip? Those keep my guys buzy for quite the while.

Hey — so what makes you think you have to make the things yourself? Go ahead and add your store :)
No room for me :(
Great blog anyway :)

Perfect! I couldn't have said it better myself.
YAY Simone!!
Sounds heavenly, but I'm left wondering what in the world is a "Teutonic spank?"
Congrats! (And I totally better be in that 20 or I'm going to cut you at BlogHer!)
