What sets me apart is that I haven't seen to many people doing what I do. I thrive off of being unique.

Honestly a lot of it just comes to me. Then to I try and sound advice, and experimenting. So of the most successful things we see in our world have come from people who simply just play around with stuff.

I did go to school for graphic design which allowed me to see the world of art in a different light. I think it is always good to explore new avenues, because you never know how it will benefit you.

What is your goal for the next year?
My goal for the next year is to make what I do more widely known and acceptable. I really think that things I produce are awaiting for the people to see. I feel like once the right people or person sees what I do then my journey is that much more fulfilling.

What do you do to attract new clients and encourage re-occurring business?
Gee there is nothing I really do out of the ordinary. I hand out and post cards, promote myself in the etsy community, Facebook, and Mycraft. If only I had the power of persuasion lol! No telling what would happen.

If you could share one piece of advice with someone who is considering opening their own store of handmade items, what would it be? Don't let people crush your dreams. Take advice from others who have been in the field for some time and stay true to yourself.
