North Carolina Woman Builds Home Business Repairing Flutes

There's no sweeter music than the sounds of success! And particularly when one follows her passion down that path. Flutist Nancy Shinn decided she was going to learn how to repair her instruments. Soon she was repairing flutes (and piccolos) as a service business from her home.

The intricacy of those instruments (have you ever seen the keys on a piccolo?) makes for some difficult, but specialized and rewarding work for her. She's followed her passion for these beautiful instruments and nowadays people send flutes to her from all over for repair. Her website is FluteStar and here is an in-depth article about her business.
