is it so wrong to want to make things with your own two hands?

having been an artsy/craftsy type person my whole life, i am absolutely loving the "buy handmade" movement! in a world that is full of corporate conglomerates and cookie cutter mass production, being in possession of something that was made with love and care and true originality is worth more than it's price!

i started creating again after going through a difficult time in my life... and i've not looked back since! i'm continually inspired by the world now, especially when i see what other artisans are making! jewelry making has always been a dream of mine, and it's lead me to explore other media as well. i've been able to donate my pieces to worthy causes, and may be entering my first juried show this fall.

tapping into my creative side has totally changed my life. not to mention my own personal style!!!!!

i am thrilled that handmade now has a solid presence! and i'm even more thrilled to be a supporter!!!!

keep on creating! i know i will!
