It still fascinates me to hear from people all over the world who discovers my work made by my two bare hands! I enjoy every small process of creating handmade products.

I love to repurpose items and make something old out of something new. I believe that discarded items can be used again in anew and interesting way that gives them a whole new life. and I take it on as my job to figure out what the new life for that item is.

I started making little bracelets for my pediatric patients to bribe them, oops, I mean motivate them. Since I was a child, I collected beads and stones and never knew why. Now I know why!

I am enchanted to make things with my hands. After 40 years of creating things for a living, I still can hardly believe that I get to do this all the time. Handmade has soul. It has life and the character of the maker and the Divine. There just isn’t the spark in things that have been manufactured for me.

I LOVE this idea! Today’s featured crafter developed her own application that allows people to select their own bag, shape and colors – which she then makes using a variety of fabrics.

I love making feather hair extensions, although they are much harder and time consuming than earrings…

Continue to work and strive, because good is not necessarily expensive.

Warning, cliche is about to occur:

I find inspiration everywhere.

Seriously.

It is everywhere.

The wind, an old chair, a color, a smell, a paper towel roll (yes I just said paper towel roll)

A friend of mine asked for me to paint her a pair of shoes and gave me free range to do whatever I wanted on them. A few of my friends saw them on facebook and I just started painting shoes left and right.
