1 Am located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. I work from a studio inside my home, usually with a cat on my lap!

2 when did you start selling your craft online? About 3 years ago when I was surfing the internet and was looking at all of these beautiful sites. Finding a website designer was too expensive for a girl that had her own little bsiness. So I taught myself, and have been adding pages and pictures ever since.

3 whats youre favorite item to make? Necklaces. Any kind of necklace. My Mother is from Europe, so my blend of European styles and gypsy chic designs are sparked from the gemstones and metals I purchase from all over the world. I love making necklaces because there is no end to how many gems I can fit on a strand.

4 if you could meet any one from the indie world who would it be and why? Any strong individual that has enough inspiration inside of them to throw caution to the wind and start their own business. It takes a very special person to not only craft objects from their hands, but to sell it too is the most special thing about this business.

5 what do you think of indie shop interviews? Indie shop interviews give us all the opportunity to find eachother. Although some of us may be in the same business, selling the same type of items, you give us a place to come together and support eachother as a group promoting how special crafters are! Thank you for this opportunity.
