How did you get your start?
I made my own wedding jewelry , I loved making the crochet needle work and I sold to some shops and friends around my home area…and that’s what I'm doing since 2006
Where do you get your inspiration?
From ancient crochet pattern and nature.
What has been your biggest successful moment so far?
Exhibiting in the Norton Art Museum in Florida.
Rose Gold Lace Bracelet
What challenges do you face selling online?
When a buyer spend their money on the internet, they really need to be able to feel the item, sometimes I get people tell me, oh it look even nicer then the photo…it's very hard to get the photos transfer the feeling and touch of the jewel. Also for a first time costumer sometimes they want to "take the risk" and try a smaller jewel before they know they can trust me and come back for the bigger ones.

What advice would you give someone just starting out on Etsy?
Not to give up, some people think that if they post their items it is enough , but it's like having a real store in the street, once you organize it you need to make sure people will go in, and this part takes endless work, but it's well worth it so good luck.
