What would you like to be known or recognize as a crafter/artisan?
Someone who puts her heart and soul into her work and gives her customers nothing but her “best!”

What motivates or inspire you to do crafting?

I love taking an idea and seeing it come to life. Not to mention hearing someone say as if pleasantly surprised, “You made that?”

Given today as a day you can do whatever you like, how would you spend today? Making more glass beads, as long as I am in the groove, I truly love being in front of the flame.

What are your favorite designs/creations?

I love color and I love layers and depth. I also love the random flow of the color – somewhat organic in nature. Perhaps controlled chaos if you will?

Where can they see your crafts and designs?

What’s the best customer service you can offer?
I am a very firm believer in customer service. I know your money was hard earned, your time is precious and every now and then you would like to feel special. Given that, I do my best to provide you with a beautiful piece of art that you feel like you got a deal on, I communicate with you to let you know what the status of your order is. I deliver as quickly as possible (often times for free), I package it beautifully so you feel like you are receiving a gift and to keep you coming back for more, I offer special discounts or coupons.

What’s your hopes and desire for your crafting?
To grow in my art by experimenting and exploring new techniques and ideas so that I can bring the customer something fresh while at the same time fulfill my desire to create and develop as an artist.

Can you share a message to fellow crafters/artisans?
Follow your heart, make what you love. I believe it shows in your work if you are passionate about your art. Also customer service, customer service, customer service – make them happy!
