Accidentally John Derian
In the early days, John Derian drew attention as a decoupage artist—his pieces cleverly repurposed illustrations from the 19th century into something fresh and modern. Over the years he’s become known for being so much more: Shopkeeper, author, and purveyor of the world’s most unique Christmas ornaments. On this episode, Derian speaks with host Dennis Scully about his collaborations with everyone from Target to Stubbs & Wootton; how he’s managed to keep a sprawling operation going without an inventory and point of sale system; and why he’s never had a master plan, instead taking the growth of his business day by day, step by step.This episode is sponsored by Loloi and KlafsLINKSJohn DerianDennis ScullyBusiness of Home
