HAVANA TIMES — If you need an attractive gift for a partner, family member, or friend, or perhaps you’re looking for an object to decorate your room or a space in your home, I invite you to visit a small shop located on 26th Street, between 21st and 23rd, in Vedado, which may meet your needs.
You will find a wide variety of items on offer, such as handmade soaps, perfumes, essential oils, backpacks, office supplies, pot holders, picture frames, and all sorts of miscellaneous goods.
It is interesting to see how homeowners rent out rooms in their own houses for these purposes, in the face of a nonexistent economy and inflation that rises every day.
These rental arrangements can generate profits, depending on the quality of the products being offered. An important factor is advertising, in order to expand and sell the merchandise.
Although many may think that the prices are not very affordable, this shop shows what a private entrepreneur can accomplish. There are very beautiful items here, including ornamental plants.
I’ll leave you with the photographs.
