A 12-year-old entrepreneur in Knoxville is proving you’re never too young to chase your dreams. Paris Harris turned her sewing hobby into a successful business.
“It just takes a lot of work,” Harris said. “But it’s cool when you see the outcome.”
Whatever path Harris is led down, she is being cheered on every step of the way.
“Whether she goes into the route of being a space engineer, or if she is staying as a creative, I just want her to be happy. I truly, truly do,” her mom told WBIR-TV.
The pillows are popular, but Harris is focused on what every seam means for her dreams.
“If you have the idea, just try to do it, like as soon as possible, because I didn’t really think that a lot of people were gonna buy it, and we sold out in less than five minutes on market day, so just do it. I promise you,” Harris said.
