Helping Jones is her husband, David, a website designer and developer at ClickCom in Charlotte. He built the Art’s Desire website (www.artsdesiregifts.com). “He can do the technical stuff that I can’t.” She also continues to draw inspiration from her dad, the Baptist minister, who has always loved Lake Wylie and decided to move to the lake full-time. “We’ve been going to the lake when it was nothing down there,” Jones says. “It has been something seeing how it has grown over the years. It has blossomed beautifully and we love it. I feel like that is my home now. That’s where my family is.” Her other home is the store. It’s open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Saturday, though she takes off Wednesdays. “I love pretty things and I love to make things pretty,” she says. Jones is clearly happy with the choice she made to buy the shop. “Through the years, especially when the economy was good, it has been a good investment — a good opportunity. Now the economy is tightening everybody’s belts. We’d all like to loosen them, but not yet.” But she’s making the best of things as she sees slow signs of improvement. “My husband says I’m always fixing things,” she says, even reflecting back on the career path not taken. “It’s easier to fix a display than to fix somebody’s problems.” LW
