I started my shop in 2010. I wanted to try to make some extra money while I worked part-time at my job. I thought making jewelry looked like fun so I ordered some beads and took off from there. I used to play with seed beads my mom had when I was little and had forgotten how much I love beads!
I've taught myself jewelry making by watching videos on the internet and started out making bracelets, then earrings. I've made a few necklaces, anklets and rings also.
I've found that I really enjoy beadweaving. I have made some bracelets using beadweaving techniques. It is extremely relaxing for me and the finished product is so beautiful!
I don't have much time to make jewelry since I am working more hours at my day job, but I would like to have enough pieces to do a craft show some day and I think it would be fun to have a real brick and mortar shop.
