1 when did you start crafting? I started 'crafting' since I was in elementary school. Art was my favorite subject throughout high school and college. In 1998, I was given a watercolor kit and started painting in that medium.

2 when did you start selling online> I started selling online in 2001. But, I began creating my line of watercolor note cards and invitations in 1999. This is how 'Roxi Designs' was born. And, it wasn't until 2003 that I started creating my first line of vintage-inspired photo bracelets. They were received well and I soon established four retail locations for my pieces.

3 what are youre favorite materials to work with ? Beads, vintage beads & findings, my collection of vintage French postage stamps, ribbons, paper, glitter, watercolor, and pen & ink.

4 what do you like about crafting? That you can create something out of nothing!

5 what do you think about indie shop interviews? I love them! It's a great way to get your name out there. Thanks for helping to promote other independent designers! You can find here.roxidesigns.com Item to check out .Ribbon Gift Tags
