Tell us a little about yourself. 
I'm currently a SAHM with three beautiful little girls.  I love all types of art, reading, and doing as much with my family as I possibly can everyday. When I'm crafting, I love to try new things and be a little different.

What type of merchandise will shoppers find in your shop?
Hair accessories: bows, clips, headbands. There are sculpted roses as well as beaded necklaces and bracelets.

Prep School Cutie- 4 Bow Clips Set of 2 Pairs

How/why did you get started? 
I began crafting accessories 2 years ago when I worked for a retail store in a mall and the accessories were poorly made as well as super expensive. It was then that I decided to make affordable accessories because as a mom, raising kids is expensive enough!!!

How long have you been crafting?
As long as I can remember I've been creating things but really "crafting" started about 2 years ago.

What inspires you to create?
Everything. My kids, the weather, holidays, a song, a food, a smell......  you name it.

What is one thing you need to have with you while you craft?
Coffee.

Roses That Never Die, Hand Sculpted Roses

What is your favorite thing to browse Etsy for?
Alice in wonderland stuff for myself, everything else for my girls.

When you're not crafting, what are you doing?
Reading, watching reality tv shows, spending time with the family.
